I found this blog post I wrote in October and then didn’t post! Happy belated fall, everyone. Somehow it’s already October and I haven’t posted anything in over four months. I think this may be my last year of blogging, after my year-end roundups, which I enjoy so much. We had a fun and hectic …

75: Almost Summer
I know it’s not officially summer yet, but it sure feels like it is. We went dancing at the Kits Showboat last night and it was glorious as usual. About a month ago, there was a fire at the Showboat and we were all scared that we would lose our summers of free dancing at …
68: Dance Community
When I first started this blog I thought I was going to have interesting insights into things and that some kind of theme would emerge as my focus, but after 3 years it’s pretty clear that I am just into blabbing about myself. I would like to blame the pandemic for that because the last …
61: Things Bought in 2021
For the 3rd year in a row, I have tracked all the things I bought for myself. (You can catch up on the last 2 years here and here, if you want.) It started as a personal goal about reducing the amount of stuff in my life and focusing my spending on the things that …
56: Phase 3
Oops, I guess I kind of forgot I had a blog for a while there, but I’m back now. This will be another general update post because that’s all I’ve got. Since my last post, BC has entered ‘Phase 3’ of the Restart Plan and, unrelated to that, we had a crazy heat wave. I …
50: New Year
2021! For some reason I can’t get over how futuristic that sounds. So far this year has been pretty similar to most of last year though, so not very exciting. I have been trying to come up with a topic for this post for a couple of weeks and not getting anywhere. I think I’m …
49: 2020 Highlights
Well, 2020 is coming to a close. It was a crazy year, for sure. I was lucky enough to be in a situation where I could remain relatively safe and not have to worry too much about staying afloat, so while it wasn’t perfect, it did have some good parts, and that’s what I’m going …
48: No Unnecessary Things
At the end of 2019, I wrote a post about my experience attempting to “buy no more things” during the year. If you want to read it, it’s here. For 2020, I decided to continue tracking the things I bought and review them at the end of the year. I changed the description of my …
47: Next Year
At this time last year I was in Tofino as part of my weeklong 40th birthday extravaganza, and 4 years ago today I saw Temple of the Dog at a little venue in Seattle. This year, I’m planning to walk over to the bakery across the street and see if I can get a day …
44: Weekend Getaway
Last weekend we were supposed to be back in Penticton for the Pentastic Jazz Festival but, of course, it was cancelled this year. I was trying to remember when the last time we went away was and I guess it must have been for my 40th birthday last November. 10 months ago! Needless to say, …
