Thursday ramble of a scrambled brain

Posted by andrea tomkins in: Misc. life

Poor Sarah woke up with a fever this morning and is lying on the couch watching tv. Scooby-doo is really a stupid cartoon and I can’t believe I ever watched it. I had to postpone an appointment for Piper to get a booster this morning as well as a lunch date I was really looking forward to. Deadlines are looming and there are a few too many things on my plate today. I have a headache. Mark is at a dental appointment. It’s overcast and dark out this morning. I wish the house would magically tidy itself. I have no idea what we’re going to have for dinner. I have 100 pushups to do later today. I have a largish creative project I want to take on but little time to actually organize and plan the logistics of it. I could really use a long hot shower and would love nothing more than to hide in my bed with a book and (another) hot coffee.

Sending you some of our sunshine!

The Obligatory Blurb

My name is Andrea and I live in Ottawa with my husband Mark and our dog Sunny who is kind of a big deal on Instagram. During the day I work as a freelance writer. I am a longtime Ottawa blogger and I've occupied this little corner of the WWW since 1999. The Fishbowl is my whiteboard, water cooler, and journal, all rolled into one. I'm passionate about healthy living, arts and culture, travel, great gear, good food, and sharing the best of Ottawa. I also love vegetables, photography, gadgets, and great design.

If you're so inclined, you can read more about me here.

I've deactivated the commenting function as well as my contact form so if you want to get in touch, please drop me a line at quietfish@gmail.com. Thank you!
