Up

By in a good day, we have fun

My dad took me for a helicopter ride the other day, a first for both of us. It was way cool, zooming over the Niagara River, up to the falls. Yes, I took that picture.

Moving on

By in a good day, daily grind, love

Shannon and I moved on December 1. We actually traded spaces with a cooperative circus school, we went from about 3,500 square feet to about 1,000 square feet and the transition has been difficult and cathartic. We got rid of mountains of stuff, not only ours but furniture from the woman who had our old […]

Great manicure?

By in a good day, caitlin's crap

Or greatest manicure? This has everything I love about nail polish and I hope it lasts more than 24 hours. I’ll be avoiding dish-doing for the next 24 hours. The yellow is Maybelline Color Show in Fierce n Tangy (cheap stuff, got it at WM) and the glitter is Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Jewel Topcoat […]

Ho ho.

By in a good day

I took this picture the other day because I thought I looked pretty. Usually I feel tired and unkempt. Especially right now during my work vacation. With no reason to leave the house, why would I brush my hair or put on makeup? Dress? I mean, besides the fact that we eat out every other […]

Dog days of summer

By in a good day, babies, kitty, love

Not that summer has really arrived in Toronto, not yet it seems. Not that I’m complaining, ha ha, no indeed, the milder weather suits me and my non-air conditioned home just fine, thanks. This is my neighbor’s dog, FiFi. She is tiny and silly and likes nothing better than a cuddle in the hammock. Although […]

Where to begin?

By in a good day, crochet, Griping, love

I got fabric in the mail today that I love love LOOOOVE!!! I also got fabric (AND a serger!!) from my beloved Libs and I LOVE that too. So exciting. Check this out: Gosh, right? Where to begin? The main fabric, the largest swath that everything else is sitting upon, that was from Libs, it’s […]

G.P.O.Y.W. (B.G.E.*)

By in a good day, love

This is after an enormous amount of sushi and a giant slice of iced cream cake. Hopefully that excuses the look of discomfort. Taken to mark my 39th birthday. I had a great day, thanks, I did a bunch of lounging, then I went to VV and got a couple plates, some black and white […]

Snort.

By in a good day, caitlin's crap, seriously?

Seems it was pig day at the Village today. Yes, I still go there. No, the pigs weren’t organized as such, I did that. It was easy though, there were so many. These guys weren’t the only ones either. Or the ugliest. See what they did there? It says “PIG” just in case you couldn’t […]

How the mighty have fallen!

By in a good day, daily grind

I  sure wish I had been there when it crashed to the ground. I mean, not under it, HA HA! but near by. Yes, I know what you’re thinking: Caitlin must live in one classy building if people can afford to throw away such beautiful couches. Well, it’s true, I do live in a class […]

Leggo my Lego

By in a good day, toys

The art supply store near work sells these mystery minifigs and I got addicted to them on their second run. They come one to a package and you never know what’s inside. Or do you? On the second run there were special bar codes on each pack and you could look them up and you’d […]
