Lets assume you were caught doing some minor crime. Hopefully, nothing that hurt anyone else, but something where the justice system decided that you needed punishment. Only, you’ve got a creative judge. They’re not interested in you filling up a jail or “volunteering” in something you don’t care about. I’m talking about unusual punishment. More […]
This is my life
Blogging About Blogging
Change happens. Life, blogging… sometimes change is the only consistent thing! As you may know, I took time off of Bloggers and Bacon earlier this year. I didn’t publish new content. I was just plain worn out by being sick and I didn’t have the ability to write in more than one place. Heck, I […]
(Fake) New Home Fads
We all know that home is where the heart is. Which is why we spend money on keeping up with the Joneses to make sure that we don’t look like the horrible, out of touch, untrendy person on our street. As we all know, being untrendy is a fate worse than death. Being the exceptionally […]
Let Me Be Sarcastic!
I’ve had even less tolerance for positivity and inspirational memes recently than I normally do. And that’s not much tolerance to begin with. Let Me Be Sarcastic! Inspirational speakers are my least favourite people. I remember someone in recent years was talking about can’t really meaning won’t and that you would jump […]

Podcasts I’m Loving (Part 2) Thinking Sideways Thinking Sideways is an unsolved mysteries podcast that I instantly became addicted to. It has been going […]
My Lazy Decluttering Method
I’m not a fan of prescriptive methods and ideas. Mostly because I think it forces you to fit into someone else’s plan rather than do what works for you, and I think that generally leads to a worse outcome. Or, you know, giving up. Keep in mind, I also don’t use recipes to cook, and the […]
#ArchiveLove 33
Well, I am back in the saddle again. I went back to work Wednesday this week and I’ve got to say, I’m grateful I didn’t go back on Monday like the plan was! I feel pretty good and I think overall my recovery went really smoothly, but it doesn’t mean it’s not tiring to re-adjust […]
Tips for Adult Tonsillectomy Recovery
Firstly, let me start with #NotADoctor. This is based on my personal experience. Please make sure you follow the clinical guidelines set by your doctor above all else.
