Hi all, I’ve moved back to my hometown in Muskoka, and that means I get to see more wildlife. Case in point: a mother deer with her two babies. My father spotted the first fawn in the backyard, sitting contentedly right outside the window. I could only take pictures through the window, otherwise I might…
My cat Eowyn always gets excited when I water the plants. She’ll follow me around the house and try to drink the water as it pours out of the watering can. What she doesn’t usually do, however, is climb inside the pot. You can imagine my surprise when she did exactly that earlier this week.…
So, I don’t usually post photos other than my own…. but my boyfriend and I completed the Ottawa Sprint Spartan Race on August 5, and I’m super proud of us for finishing it. We didn’t even train for it! So I’m going to post some of the photos my father took. Enjoy! Here we are…
Earlier this year, I bought a small decorative rug for no particular reason. I just liked it. Not knowing where else to put it, I placed the rug in front of my bedside table. It didn’t take Eowyn long to decide that she likes it! She now sleeps there every once in a while. I’m…
A couple of weeks ago, I went to this event called MOSAICANADA. It celebrates 150 years of Canadian culture with an exhibit of mosaiculture: sculptures made from plants.

His five eyes blink, black slits dilating in yellow irises. The others watch closely. His three hands tremble, hovering over the operating table, over the strange pink mounds of flesh. He sweats profusely. “Shit,” Kloxar thinks. “Where does the probe go, again?”
Last week, H randomly started to build a snow sculpture in the front yard. I saw what he was doing and came outside to help. At first it was going to be a polar bear, but we decided that a unicorn would be way more cool. We both piled up the snow to form the…
I took myself on an Artist’s Date this week. If you’ve read Julia Cameron book “The Artist’s Way,” then you already know that an Artist Date is something we do for our inner artist, aka our inner child. It means going out alone and doing something the inner child wants to do, even if it…
I’ve started up again with the RPG maker. In order to make my game idea work, my character needs to have certain items in his inventory. Since I don’t have the patience to slog through the internet looking for the item graphic that I need, I decided to just make it. One of the main…
