I had such a busy day, I’ve completely sewn the top of the new baby quilt I started-get this-yesterday. No, I won’t post a picture of it yet, it’s a surprise gift for a friend who’s pregnant and if she can wait, so can the rest of the universe. In lieu, here’s a picture of […]

Productivity is up 17%
By Caitlin Jane in Art!, crochet, making stuff is good, workGesundheit!
By Caitlin Jane in food, workI’ve been working on being extra healthy this winter and so far, so good. No colds or flues to mention-yet. Part of that regime was inspired by Karyn, the owner of the workroom where I am taking my quilting class. One evening she was making herself dinner, and it smelled so good I knew I […]
Dumb diddy dumb
By Caitlin Jane in Griping, haha, workLast night, on my way home from quilting class (which, just to be clear, I LOVE!), I was on the bus, headphones deep in my ears blaring Howard Stern when 2 LDS guys got on. I think, if I remember correctly, their names were Elder Brainwashed and Elder Superdoy. Anyway. One leaned towards me and […]
The Royal
By Caitlin Jane in food, we have fun, workI went to the Royal Winter Fair last Friday with my boss and my dad. It was the first time they’ve met and they got along really well. As always, my favourite part (since they didn’t have any poultry worth looking at) are the giant veggies. This beast is a 32lb beet. Imagine how much […]
Let’s play ball!
By Caitlin Jane in a good day, we have fun, workI went to my first Jay’s game of the season last night-they played Baltimore and lost 7-5. It was still a good game, mostly I am bored by baseball, but it is smattered with excitement and that’s what keeps me awake. That and my satellite radio-I had Howard Stern blabbing in my ear for most […]
Add “gardening” to my list of mad skillz
By Caitlin Jane in a good day, workWe have a little planter, it’s about 4′ by 5′, that is completely in the shade and I’d kind of been avoiding dealing with it, but today is a sunny day and it felt like a day to tackle an ugly project. The hole was full of broken glass, beer bottle caps, w-d-40 cans, plastic […]
Work.
By Caitlin Jane in a good day, workToday, at work, I did a double work out. Let me explain: Normally I do a 20 minute bike ride-it’s a recumbent type bike-and I average 4.5 miles and burn about 400+ calories. So I did that today, but I was done with 35 minutes left to go on my shift, so I thought, what […]
Work meeting
By Caitlin Jane in workWe have a meeting for work every 6 weeks or so, and tonight’s went really well. Probably due to the great agenda that was written: See the fifth suggestion? Trust me, a group hug at a work meeting helps bring staff together and makes everyone happy. And we did all put on happy faces after […]
Tuesday.
By Caitlin Jane in Griping, workHas it really been almost a week since I last posted? I have been sick-I started feeling tingly last Wednesday, at work, and we took the day off from the gym and part of me feels like that is the reason I got sick, some form of weird punishment from my body. Thursday I visited […]
Workin’ out
By Caitlin Jane in a good day, workMy boss and I have agreed to go to the gym 3 days a week. She works at a community centre, so we get to go for free during off hours (when the weight room is closed). It’s great and way less embarrassing than with an audience (although I think some people prefer it that […]
