30 Things: Hello 2011

http://30things-msdee.blogspot.com/2011/01/hello-2011.html

Wednesday, January 5, 2011. Happy New Year everyone! How were your holidays? Mine were fantastic, in keeping with the general awesomeness of my life. The Mister and I visited family, skied, spent time with friends and ate altogether too much wonderful food. Heaven. Part I was originally going to edit the post before publishing it, but really, it was so ridiculous that I've decided to just scrap it. So shall we start with a (quicker, less drunken) recap of that night? It's mind blowing and everyone should...

30 Things: Hello, my name is Danielle and I am a procrastinator.

http://30things-msdee.blogspot.com/2010/03/hello-my-name-is-danielle-and-i-am.html

Sunday, March 21, 2010. Hello, my name is Danielle and I am a procrastinator. Sorry about the late blog entry folks. Technical difficulties, procrastination, what can I say. Here it is:. I went to Victoria on Vancouver Island this past weekend to visit my gorgeous sister. Baby girl turned 20 this year! Being the wonderful, unselfish person that she is, she decided that what she wanted to do for her birthday weekend was help me with my list. I ask you, have you ever met such an incredible person? I wish I...

30 Things: Butchering the English language

http://30things-msdee.blogspot.com/2011/01/butchering-english-language.html

Thursday, January 20, 2011. Butchering the English language. The Mister was reading some of my old posts the other day and pointed out that I am. exuberant in describing my life and the things I've been doing. I tend to use the word "awesome" a lot, which just shows you how great a writer I am. He asked me if people don't find this annoying, and kind of like bragging. So I have to ask, do you? JP and Lisa Welman. May 13, 2011 at 1:03 PM. Your exuberance is awesome! I really enjoying your blogs =). See a ...

30 Things: #13

http://30things-msdee.blogspot.com/2010/11/13.html

Sunday, November 21, 2010. So, number 13 on my list was to make pesto from scratch, from basil that I grew myself. Any of you who have gardens are probably wondering what the big deal here is, especially since pesto's not all that hard to make. The thing you have to understand though is that I live in a postage stamp sized apartment, and I don't even have a balcony. Not that I'm complaining! I love my apartment! It's tiny but it's gorgeous. But I'm not really a city girl, you know? Go on a zipline. Read ...

30 Things: # 10

http://30things-msdee.blogspot.com/2010/10/10.html

Tuesday, October 19, 2010. It turns out I'm posh. Yup, posh. I'm a wine drinking, opera going, dance class taking, Shakespeare quoting classy, classy lady. Despite my proclivity for beer swilling and my occasional trucker mouth. Alright, so the Shakespeare thing isn't so much quoting as singing along at the top of my voice to this. Song Aaaaand I didn't even realize that the lyrics were Shakespeare quotes til my (sort of) recent encounter with Bard on the Beach. But I'm counting it anyways! Go on a zipli...

30 Things: In which I explore my body's pain limits

http://30things-msdee.blogspot.com/2010/06/in-which-i-explore-my-bodys-pain-limits.html

Wednesday, June 9, 2010. In which I explore my body's pain limits. I've been doing yoga lately! Committing to a month of regular yoga is number 24 on my list, so awhile ago I thought it might be a good idea to buy a dvd so I could give it a try. I know classes are supposed to be great but remember when I said I used to be a walking disaster area when it came to athletic things? Ya, well, that's still my mental image of myself. Doesn't this hurt you? He turned to me and calmly said, "yeah, but I'm used to...

30 Things: # 21

http://30things-msdee.blogspot.com/2010/10/21.html

Friday, October 1, 2010. Forgive me if my recollections are a bit hazy here, because I really should have written this awhile ago. Number 21 on my list was to go to an opera, and I'm happy to say I've now done this! Now" being a subjective term, since the actual date of the show was Aug. 30th, but still, that's another thing off my list. Luckily for me, every year Vancouver puts on a festival called Bard on the Beach. A tragic love story composed by Giacomo Puccini. Spend my weekends drinking beer. I...

30 Things: Please bear with me...

http://30things-msdee.blogspot.com/2010/07/please-bear-with-me.html

Wednesday, July 14, 2010. Please bear with me. Alright, I know it seems like I've abandoned my beloved blog, but I haven't. I've just been taking a bit of a break while I deal with some things. In the mean time, posting is going to be pretty sporadic. Since I feel guilty though, I'll fill you in on a few of the (pretty great) things I've been doing lately. A few weeks ago I crossed # 30 off my list - "Host a dinner party where I actually cook everything". Of course, it was my. For some reason I decided t...

http://30things-msdee.blogspot.com/2010/05/help-i-need-somebody-help-not-just.html

Wednesday, May 12, 2010. I need somebody; Help! My life is good, you know? I mean, I am one seriously lucky girl. I have an amazing man, a wonderful family, fantastic, funny and beautiful friends (yes I'm talking about YOU! A job I adore even on the bad days, and to top it off, having lived in four countries in the last five years, I think I can call myself a world traveler! So, time to give back, yes? And that they'd need such interesting. Did you know you could be an arts and crafts volunteer? They pai...
