Can you believe I found that chair on the side of the road? Well it didn’t look like that originally… I get this from my mom. I cannot tell you how many times we’ve been driving down the road and she would yell to my dad: “We have to turn around!” 80% of the time upon closer look

Long Overdue.
Well you can blame me, I have ignored you, and for that I apologize… No actually I blame the north–it does crazy things to you.
If you have no idea what I am talking about, I live in Yellowknife now–NO that is not in the Yukon. Why would I do such a thing? Obviously because I wanted to hang with the polar bears and freeze my ass off. Oh wait I hate the cold.
Just a quick update
Yes, Yellowknife if cold. There has been snow here since October…
I moved here for a job CJCD Mix 100.
I dog sled to work.
I am hoping to ride a polar bear at some point–its a sport up here eh?
Recreational activies include: Drinking and……

I need a fanny pack
Spending $10 on a fanny pack could have saved me almost $1000. I just got back from Boots and Hearts. It’s a HUGE country music festival in the middle of an open field near Barrie, ON. Now I had heard stories of how wild things get;however, that didn’t stop me from showing up alone. I believe this was my first mistake.

toDIYfor – Bachelorette Glasses
These were made with the intention of being used at my sister-in-laws bachelorette… Yeah, that didn’t happen. Turns out most of the drinks were had while out at the bars… BONUS–a group of girls walking around with one in a white dress, sash, veil, ‘bride’ buttons, and beads will have an abundance of drinks bought for them. The girls LOVED these glasses, which were pretty easy to make. We ended up using them the day of the wedding at the head table! Watch the full tutorial here.

toDIYfor – Hammock Swing
This DIY could not have gone more wrong. There is a reason several beers were consumed while attempting to make it. Let’s just say, fishing line works as a good substitute for thread and my sister no longer has an emergency blanket in her van. Regardless, the end product was pretty sweet!
