Missing Mexico vacation life right now...

Here is the updated version of the poster for Golden Ears Writers' spring season! Next up, April 28th @roxysnopek.bsky.social will talk about using rhetorical devices to amp up your fiction. Looking forward to it! Thanks to the @mapleridgecity.bsky.social for the support. @girlwithapen.bsky.social

Mexico round up

Shrimp cakes but no cakes this time. I'll keep trying

Looking forward to our return!

Not my favourite and I think they got thrown out, but candy on the tables at the potato growers meeting. #writerfuel

She found the sunbeam on the spare bed. I can't argue with that. I did buy her a pink puffer jacket so she can go outside though... #writerfuel #writerdog #indulging

Fancy pants nails. First time doing matte finish #girlythings #writerfuel

Doggo went outside. Catto (all 8 pounds of her) demanded she be allowed out. We have this fight often. She squirmed the whole way to being put in the catio in her demand for FREEDOM!!!! Sorry catto. I'm not up for you getting in a cat fight.

I think she could be a glamper #writerfuel #writerdog

I made gluten free chicken and dumplings! So good! Definitely will make again. #writerfuel

The price of things is scary some days. If your income isn't stretching far enough, let's chat to see if how I'm adding more income through online activities could work for you too. #writerfuel #costofliving

Sometimes good days are simple #writerfuel

My new favourite sweater. Looks like my doggo in Heaven #writerfuel #writerdog

I can't even begin to describe this Dubai chocolate ice cream waffle dessert. Too much tasty!!!!! #writerfuel

Sitting on a boat, surrounded by other cars. Definitely not going to brave the cafeteria line up after a late boarding. I am not that crazy

Random things making me happy #writerfuel

Momma's last haircut. I had no way of knowing that she'd be gone 2.5 months later #writerfuel #grief

Pomegranates. Seriously... #writerfuel

Sporting her holiday collar #writerfuel #writerdog

I iz gargoyle yes? #writerfuel #writercat

These 2 little birds were on my parents' wedding cake. I kept them in Mom's room with her because they mattered to her. Now they are with me, because they matter to me. #writerfuel #grief

Loving this 3D model. A great way to enjoy the day. I want more time and money to buy and do things like this. So I've started a program a friend introduced me to and they are making thousands each month. It felt right to me. If you're curious and want financial improvement in 2026 let me know!

New favourite mug #writerfuel

I didn't expect my mom's death earlier this month to tank my emotions as much as it has. I've been okay but there have been some pretty rotten days. Today included. #rough

One of my husband's favourite stocking stuffers... The poop won! #writerfuel

The mulled wine pot last night. That just says Christmas like few other things #writerfuel

Finished! 291 of these delicious yummiest #writerfuel

Despite being sad over Mom's ultimate departure, I'm still making truffles #writerfuel

Serious biscuit time #writercat #writerfuel

So fargin' tasty and they held together this time! #writerfuel And, if money is something that ISN'T holding together for you right now and you want a new option, give me a #hellyeah below and I'll share info. No pressure, just info to make a decision from

Death is hard. Flowers make it feel that little bit better. #writerfuel

Hanging at Brown's doing some work. Alcohol free, but with this week, alcohol could be warranted at 1:30 on a Monday #writerfuel

Nugget looking cute by the tree

You know what I like about Bluesky? There aren't all the "Hello dear, let's be friends" messages from catfish stalkers who think I'm stupid. Thank you Bluesky for staying classy! #writerfuel #gooddaywhen

My mom's death Tuesday night is causing me to change even more. No more playing small or worrying about how I'm seen. I started a new income stream in November & I've been shy to talk about it. Silly when it can help people. I want to help you if you want more money in your life. #hellyeah

Beautiful flowers that arrived to bring me comfort after Momma's big ultimate departure. Gonna be a weird-ass Christmas #writerfuel #grief

A little post-decoration selfie Eggnog all around! Oh, except me, because of that egg thing #writerfuel

So we made sweaters... yes we need to work on our elbows but you get the idea... #writerfuel

Antlers are one of my favourite things... 😊 As is a good flow of money, which is now happening. If you're in the spot I was - scared and ready for change on the financial front - let me know. I can help. #writerfuel #hellyeah #antlers

My little love bug up on my shoulders #writerfuel #writercat

Nope, sorry, I can't make dinner #writerfuel #writercat

Yes, I can be a little girly sometimes. I do like getting my nails done. Total honesty here - for a while I was stressing that I shouldn't be spending $ on my nails. It seemed wasteful with the debt we had. But I added a new way to bring more $ in. It's doable long term. #phew #writerfuel

Meow Monday!
