• King of the Castle Joint

    By Lucy I slept in Sunday, which is always a nice turn of events. It was immediately ruined because I had to run out to Kakabeka to grab my winter tires from Paul, still in my pajamas with my breakfast cooling gently in front of my PC. Paul was in a great mood, the highest…

  • Wow! It’s Really Angry!

    By Lucy I miss Paul. It’s strange, cuz it’s not like he’s been gone for long or that we would have hung out normally anyways, but Paul’s usual job is to wave truck drivers thru the gate at the mill to drop off their chips, so he’s usually on his phone to answer whatever silly…

  • Until Morale Improves

    By Lucy There is a theory for human evolution called the “drunk monkey” theory. It posits that humans are genetically drawn to alcohol because, back when we were primates, the fruit that contains the most sugars and nutrients are also the ones that overripen and ferment quickly. So we learned to equate alcohol with nutrition.…

  • Joinery

    By Lucy The first thing I did on Sunday was make yogurt. So, I’ve been really looking forward to buying Slate River Dairy for 2 reasons. The first is that they sell their products in old timey glass bottles, which is important to me and my quest to avoid single use plastics. I love yogurt,…

  • Smells Like Carpenter Spirit

    By Lucy Paul is the first to notice that I’ve completely shattered. “Hello, Earth to Lucy. You’re quiet.” Of course Paul would notice. He’s the person I talk to the most, currently, partially because he’s also my editor. To an occasionally annoying degree; sometimes I’ll log on to my novel and write a couple paragraphs,…

  • Prices For Vices

    By Lucy This week was not good. I knew I was dancing on the razor’s edge, but that happens a lot. I was counting on the benefits refund for my spa visit coming in on Monday, but it was declined (I hit the wrong button or something, because I applied again and this time it…

  • Happy 30th to Me!

    By Lucy It’s my birthday today so no post! (Hopefully Paul will live)

  • Winnipeg. Again. For Some Reason.

    By Lucy Sleep was hard to find Saturday night. I fell asleep easily but was up again at 3. I had a bite to eat, played around on the computer a bit. Napped some more. Even thought I couldn’t fall asleep, I also couldn’t be awake; couldn’t make my brain focus enough to do more…

  • It’s Finally Over

    By Lucy Hi, yes, this post is very, very late, and as usual Paul is always advocating for my readers and beating me about the head until I write something. Part of the delay was the break-neck speed of my emergency trip to Winnipeg that ended with me bawling on the grave of my great-grandmother,…

    It’s Finally Over
  • No Rain, No Flowers

    By Lucy This is from the next week, but I’ll add it here where it’s relevant. Janessa was replaced by a boy named Jordan. I say boy… he’s young, but he’s smart. He keeps his mouth shut and his eyes open and he comments rarely but incisively. Not even a week into working with us,…
