All-girrrrl road trip to Manitoba! (Part I)

Early Monday morning, July 3rd, I flew to Kelowna from Vancouver (it's about a 40 minute flight). Once there, my sister and mom picked me up and we hit the open road... Manitoba bound! For those of you who don't know, Kelowna is located in the heart of the Okanagan region of the province of … Continue reading All-girrrrl road trip to Manitoba! (Part I)

7 quotes on friendship…

June 30, 2017 / Introvertomatic / 4 Comments

In honour of my dear “lifers” – the girlfriends I’ve known since preschool, I’ve gathered up seven quotes by famous people on friendship. What brought this on, you ask? Well, recently we girls had a weekend reunion. We’ve done this every two years or so since 2012, which we called “The Year of the Cougar.” … Continue reading 7 quotes on friendship…

The lifeline that is creativity

June 21, 2017June 21, 2017 / Introvertomatic / Leave a comment

When you're a creative type, you feel truly alive when you're creating on a regular basis. Whether your outlet is writing, making music, painting, baking, woodworking, cake decorating, sculpting, designing and knitting (or sewing) garments, cooking, brewing beer - whatever it is, you just gotta create. And when you go for long stretches of time … Continue reading The lifeline that is creativity

And then I almost got hacked…

June 20, 2017 / Introvertomatic / 4 Comments

This morning, I was catching up on posts from some of the bloggers I follow. At one point, when I clicked on a link to go to a post, a new window opened with an audio "warning" from someone claiming to be Microsoft. It had a window for my username and password to be entered, … Continue reading And then I almost got hacked…

Day trippin’

June 19, 2017June 19, 2017 / Introvertomatic / 2 Comments

Father's day weekend this year was bittersweet. It was my first fatherless Father's Day, having lost my ol' dad earlier this spring. My husband and I lit a candle to honour his memory on Sunday morning. But on the upside, my husband is also a father. And I got a lot of joy out of … Continue reading Day trippin’

One night in Victoria, BC

June 12, 2017June 12, 2017 / Introvertomatic / 7 Comments

My friends, I have to tell you about this very pretty and romantic little city. It's located on Vancouver Island, and it's the capital of the province of British Columbia. (That's in Canada, eh?) I have lived in Vancouver since 2000, but have not been to Victoria since the age of 12 (my family was … Continue reading One night in Victoria, BC

Three things… June 8, 2017

June 8, 2017June 8, 2017 / Introvertomatic / 4 Comments

This week my heart is overflowing with gratitude and I'm having difficulty only listing three things that are putting a smile on my face! Some days are just like that, aren't they? As much as possible, I try to hang onto that feeling, even - or especially - in difficult times. Gratitude has the power … Continue reading Three things… June 8, 2017

About this blog…

A while ago, I started a blog about living in a tiny apartment in the city. When I first started that blog, I was afraid I’d run out of things to write about. And ya know what? I ran out of things to write about. It’s a tiny place. There’s only so much you can say about it.

So, I thought I’d branch out a little and start a blog about life in general: life as a fiction writer (mostly fantasy, thanks for asking); life as a knitter/yarn junkie who loves food, the outdoors, kayaking, cities, her scruffy rescued dog, her husband and family; life as a wannabe minimalist. There’s so much to write about!
