Didn’t this year feel faster than any other year, by a lot?

Last two days was a lot of Life Admin, not a lot of writing, except the admin supports the writing, and is SO boring, but check check all done.

Lined up the next couple columns (next week has been on my to-do list forever: Talking to Designers), and got a neat new project off the ground yesterday, think you’ll like, I really do; coming in a couple weeks.

Oh and this week’s car is a 2014 Honda Civic, forgot to post that. Manual too!

Always liked the Civic, you can’t go wrong buying this car.

If you can, get the Si.

Went downtown TWICE this week, think that’s a total of 6 times since July 25th.

Still don’t miss it. Actually, I recently parked on the street outside my old place, rolled down the windows and sat in it for a bit.

Felt so grateful to have my house. Took me 1.5 years to escape the city.

While downtown, went on my bi-yearly hoodie buying trip.

Bought both.

Then took myself to dinner at what I remembered as my favourite meatballs, but wasn’t the same, that’ll be the last time.

Went to a beautiful wedding.

I wore all black obviously.

This happened!

Fondue from scratch.

Note the 2 shadows yup, I fed 3 people at the same time. Okay, mostly I just cut up bread and melted cheese, but it involved both heat, and a recipe, so counts.

Got this house project off and running.

That’s a quilt I made years ago, right now it’s being stipled with fluorescent thread. Then it’ll become the cushion for that – best seat in the house – if you can figure out how to get up there, you can hang.

New headers.

The moment I kicked the carpet open was a big one, meant I didn’t have to clean anymore.

I’ll leave you with me on the train.

I walk and public transport more often than I document. A well-rounded auto journalist.

This weekend I have to get my nails done and house in order, leaving for the LA Auto Show early Monday morning, for the week. Maybe attend a party and probably sleep in on Sunday.

Have a great weekend xo
