Too Many Projects, Not Enough Time
And no matter how much I promised myself I’d be more diligent in posting, I wasn’t and it’s been 3 months since the last one. Will I ever change? Not likely. That doesn’t mean I was idle and completed a few more projects in my #2019makenine challenge, even though two are just encores of the…
Project 2 of Make Nine 2019 is underway: a loose top to show off my aerial-ish shoulders! I’ve been working out a lot recently, and my ego is exploding; but I’ve also been going out a lot, and my head was exploding. As I hinted in my last post, I needed a bit of me-time,…
Happy New Year! It’s already the 5th day of the 2019, I’m still in a pretty good mood and a head full of projects… and a challenge. I was scrolling through Instagram this morning, huddled beneath my duvet, when I stumbled on the Make Nine challenge and I was game! The idea is to try to make…

As a disclaimer, it’s not my favourite time of the year for several reasons that ranges from personal to apocalyptical ones. Anyhow, I was texting with a friend about the fact that I have to…
You have probably heard about Marie Kondo and her sparking joy method. A friend introduced it to me a couple of years ago and, I wouldn’t say change my life, but it made a difference in the self-perpetuating chaos of my lil den. I listened to the books, watched videos, read articles, joined groups, and…
… at least for a few hours. So, just to sum up my last month: I started NaNoWriMo but had to give up 3 days later when I received the new assignment. Since then, I’ve been spending every free moment on this shite; a bit because it’s hard and a bit because I’m obsessive and can’t…
National November Writing Month, also know as NaNoWriMo, is starting tomorrow and, after last year’s positive experience, I was ready and excited to give it another try, because yeah, my unpublished and unedited novel needs a sequel. I was actually looking forward to take part this year again, while it won’t help to fulfil my…
