Runner, knitter, curler, nonprofit leader, maker of things and instigator of shenanigans.

Me asking my boss about time off to volunteer at a curling event. Boss: oh that would be fun! You must get to watch a lot of games right? Me: well no, the ice crew mostly naps during games because we are exhausted Boss: so you want time off to exhaust yourself, not get paid, and not even watch?

I impulse bought a slackboard earlier this year. I have played around on it a bit, but battling metatarsal pain has made it difficult to do much. Tonight I did a strength workout on it and I am spent. 💦 hope the balance work helps the curling and the running.

Top tip for job applicants: if you are going to use AI to write your cover letter, remove the AI formatting and…the prompt you used to generate it, before submitting it. I don’t screen with AI, but I sure do screen FOR AI when I’m hiring.

This weekend we washed, primed, and painted the trim around the kitchen window and doors. Then I decided to deeeeeep clean the tiled shower…and remove the caulk, and re-caulk. *sinks gratefully into couch*
