personal finance, waste reduction, skincare, single living, and needlepoint; hopefully travel at some point in post-unprecedented times
I've been on a bit more of a buying moment lately than a use up moment, and I have been using what I buy so I have no guilt about it, but I need to put a freeze on the buying and really lean back into the Project Pan and get some stuff used up. … Continue reading May Empties
Another month, another group of used up products, this month isn't particularly thrilling. I probably shouldn't start a blog post like that if I want people to read it, but here we are. The usual collection of contacts supplies, speaking of I need to call and order more. I also think I'm going to make … Continue reading March Empties
This month is feeling a bit less predictable than February did. I'm expecting a very large paycheque so I might have a bit more flexibility to be able to do some of my other goals that require spending money. But I'm not sure, I need to see how much it will be before I can … Continue reading What I’m Buying in March
This week has been a whirlwind, it is the first week in ages that I cannot believe it is already Friday. It was nice to feel like I had a life again. Instagram Favourite: @venturetravelist : Regan Cleminson I started following Regan shortly pre-quarantine, but I also found her cycling and hunkering down and getting … Continue reading Friday Favorites: Reality TV, Ultra Repair Cream, and LL Bean Slippers

But I have run out of a ton of makeup and skincare items, which is great from the perspective of my Project Pan, but of course I'm out of the things I'm actually … Continue reading Wednesday Wants: Beauty
This was a big month for using stuff up. Some of it makes sense, a few things I have been using since last November and some were purchases I had to make because I haven't yet got used to having to be prepared and planning ahead to avoid using plastic/packaged products. This is a great … Continue reading July Empties
Earth Day is this Thursday! So this week I'm going to be going through the changes that I have made and the space that I still have for growth here. Today is personal care/beauty/hygiene. This is the area that I have made the most growth in and still have the most room for growth I … Continue reading Earth Week: Low Waste Personal Care
This series is to help keep me accountable in my journey to reduce my single-use plastic consumption and Project Pan progress. This empties post is a little different. I don’t have a nice big class photo of everything this month because I couldn’t bring myself to pack up and haul what is basically garbage across … Continue reading March Empties
