That was the Second Last Summer Weekend

Day walk.

Easy to forget Toronto looks like this, so green. There’s more parks and green space here than almost any other city in North America, EH.

There’s also lots of preserved olden times.

#SundayCleaning done. I blog that each week to remind myself another week of time has passed.

Also, I try to have this weekend-wrap-up post live by 11pm. I have 15 minutes from this sentence.

A handful of my weekend outfits.

This week’s flowers.

Friday August 31 is a full moon, but it’s special because it’s also a…

Blue moon – the second full moon that occurs in one month. Happens once every three years. Does not actually glow blue.

Night walk.

Night.

TTYT, have a great start to your week!

PS – Made it 10:56pm

 

 

I Made It Into Urban Dictionary – To Jacknife

To Jacknife: When you burst out laughing, so hard and so suddenly,
you involuntarily fold in half at the waist.
Usually accompanied by a large exhale of breath.

Here’s the official entry on UrbanDictionary.com

To Jacknife – pass it on!

PS – I got the good news email on a #ThursdayNight.  Further proof it really is the best night of the week.

 


Rested and Ready for a New Week

My car column kicks off this week!

When I mailed my draft earlier to my editor, my hand shook a bit over the send button, not gonna lie.

#SundayCleaning is complete, my first article is done and submitted, and my inbox is zeroed BOOM.

Uploading a video right now, well, kicking a video online.

I’ve gotta be doing something wrong, there’s no way it takes everyone this long to post a video, otherwise there’d be way less garbage on YouTube. Think I’ll make an appointment at the Apple store, get some Final Cut exporting advice. Get some.

Made it to my mailbox. Usually it’s just boring old bills, this time ha!  Free Beer does exist. Thanks Sapporo :) And may I compliment you on your beautiful penmanship.

Worked on my sidebar last night, that’s why there’s doubles and triples. I’m adding in new ones I made a few weeks ago, click here.

Then I went for a beer and read.

That’s one of my invisibility outfits, the look is, “I’m not here pay no attention leave me be”.

This weeks flowers.

Here’s to a strong and productive start to your week, one of our last of the summer, go offline and outside!

Rest Time and About Time

I’m pleased to report I killed it this week. I can’t believe I fit so much in since I flew home Sunday night.  I’ve lived on the road 21/32 weeks or 65% of the year-to-date.  Think it finally caught up to me.

I’m spent.

I just laid like this all still for 20 minutes, can’t remember the last time I did that.  You can get a lot done in 20 minutes.

I’m moving like an old person, and had use a pen & paper to do some basic math.

After I hit publish, I’m done my jobs and am going to be quiet for the rest of the day, finish #SundayCleaning, start a book, do a face mask, blog and rest.  If I’m feeling adventurous, I’ll walk to get my mail.

Upcoming Posts:

– About my New Job at the Newspaper

– Taking the New Ford Escape on a Track (have a great video edited for that)

– How to Change Your Router Password and Why You Should

I can’t seem get away with what I used to: living on one meal a day eaten at 7pm, never stopping, endless energy always, I think it’s because I’m … aging.  Well not think, I know.  So are you. Oh time.

My obsession with time may seem odd, but guys: there isn’t any.

Time is your only non-renewable resource.

We’re 3/4 the way through 2012, how’d that happen. I’ll be blogging about Christmas parties before I know it.

Hang on, it’s been a while since I did this; I’m going to re-embed my time video, About Time:

Fall is coming, it’s go time, you ready?  I am. Actually, this is my best year yet for lining stuff up, and working with the rhythm that life happens at.

I also have a video about that, filmed last year exactly around this time.

The Rhythm of a Year

I hadn’t watched it since I posted it, look at that beautiful bright blonde hair ohhh I miss it. Not my Blackberry though, never once have I missed that thing.

Kay enough, let the resting commence. Go offline and outside, this is one of our last summer weekends!

TTYL and if not before, have a great Saturday night!

What Am I Going To Do With This Hair

Worst hair in 5+ years.

It’s needs a style.  And it’s not your screen, it’s urine colour in real life, too. It’s pretty damaged to be honest.  Should I dye it dark brown?  Or take the risk and blonde it up?  Which I miss very much.

I think something’s wrong with my phone camera.

Or the lighting in here is weird, my photos aren’t sharp lately.

It could be my home though, it is quite white.

I accidentally poisoned this week’s flowers, too much of that food they give you at the store.

Kay back to video editing. I’ve made peace with the new Final Cut X, finally.  For the record I’m still meh about it.  Kay that’s the last you’ll hear of it.
