This past weekend, I had the absolute joy to attend my first 99-years birthday party! . My husband’s grandfather comes from a long line of men and women who live close to and into their 100s. This absolutely amazes me, as my family isn’t quite as long lived. . Over the past 18 years, LD has welcomed and accepted me into his family. I’ve written some of the lessons I’ve learned from this amazing man on my blog (kidfreenotcarefree.com). Cheers! . . . #kidfreenotcarefree #childfree #childfreebychoice #childfreelife #childfreeforlife #childfreezone #acceptingchildfree #dink #dinks #dinklife #dinkslife #dinksquad #nokidsforme #notamom #lifelessons #lifegoals #lessonstoliveby

The fear of missing out. . I think it’s safe to say that we’ve all been there. For me, this rears its ugly head when I hear a friend is pregnant. . I worry (selfishly) about myself, and how our friendship will change. I feel left out on that part of life, and most importantly to me, how I am letting people down, not living up to the expectation of having kids. . Will that change my #childfree decision? No. No more than the fear of missing out on the quiet kidfree life, will change my friend’s decision to have children. . Life is filled with decisions, regrets and fear. It’s how we own them that makes our live’s unique and happy. I tackle this in the newest post on KidfreeNotCarefree - check out the link on my bio! . Do you struggle with FOMO? If so, what are you afraid of missing out on? . . . #kidfreenotcarefree #childfree #childfreebychoice #childfreesunday #childfreelife #kidfreebychoice #nokidsforme #notamom #kidfreelife #fomo #dink #dinks #dinklife #dinkslife #dinksquad #dinksforlife #dinkscounttoo #auntlife #thursdaymotivation #thursdaythoughts #thursdaythought

On Sunday’s, my husband and I spend the morning together, prepping for all our meals during the week. . We’ve got it down to a science - he cooks the eggs for the egg-muffins, I wrap them all up, ready to freeze. And together we prep our dinners. . It wasn’t always like this, but was we picked up healthier and healthier habits, we noticed the need to start eating better, fuelling our bodies better, and thus begun our #MealPrepSundays. . Little did I know at the time, that these mini challenges were also strengthening our bond, making us stronger, and better communicators. And for us it really did start with learning to ‘dine well’. . . . #kidfreenotcarefree #childfreesunday #childfree #childfreebychoice #childfreelife #mealprep #mealplanning #mealprepping #dink #dinklife #dinklifestyle #dinks #dinksfordays #dinksquad #dinksforlife #dinkslife

That #FridayFeeling - when you just feel comfortable doing your thing. . Today, I’m Making my teenage self proud. Boy am I glad 90s fashion is coming back! It’s my wheel house baby ;) . . . #kidfreenotcarefree #childfree #dinklife #90sstyle #feelingnastalgic #childfreelife #dink #dinks #beenmeaningto #happy

Proof that when you are surrounded by the right people you feel like you can do anything! . Yes alcohol may have been involved. . Yes, once upon a time, I could actually squeeze out a badly tempo’ed Amazing Grace . This would be from 2002, with my would-be husband right next to me, amazed that I had the balls to go up and play :). . Who lifts you up, cheers you on, makes you feel brave and feel like anything is possible? . . . #kidfreenotcarefree #childfreesunday #childfree #childfreebychoice #childfreelife #childfreecouple #longtimerunning #kidfree #kidfreelife #nokidsforme #childless #childlessbychoice #dink #dinks #dinklife #dinksquad #dinksforlife #throwbackthursday #tbt #throwback #throwbackthursdays

What are you having for dinner tonight? . Here, I’m exhausted. There’s nothing I wanted more than some greasy take out, but the weather is terrible, pouring ice (yes ice!) all day long. . So, greasy wasn’t in the books for me, and it’s probably for the best anyway. Instead, we made our own beer battered baked fish and chips, and I have to say it really hit the spot!

As a childfree adult, I’ve been struggling to find my own community, a place where I belong, a place where I can contribute, and feel valued. . Putting yourself out there, truly out there and not just a half-assed attempt, is scary but can be so worth it! Check out the latest #kidfreenotcarefree post (link in bio) for more. . And so I have a question for you - where do you find your community? . . . #childfree #childfreebychoice #childfreelife #kidfree #nokidsforme #childlessbychoice #childless #dink #dinks #dinklife #dinksforlife #dinksquad #dinkscounttoo #blog #blogger #childfreeblog #dinkblog #kidfreeblog #childlessblog

A lifetime ago, I was pursuing a career in photography. For many reasons, this didn’t work out, and for a while I lost my passion for it. . Today, with the whole #SuperbOwl trend, I’m reminded of seeing this beauty in the woods behind my old apartment, and it makes me want to go out with my camera just to take photos for myself. . It’s funny how quickly we put things we used to love aside - now is the time to revisit and respark that love! . . . #kidfreenotcarefree #childfreesunday #childfree #findmypassion #ignitethedream #photography

This morning, it was so cold that there was frost on the inside of our house! . It’s days like today that I am so grateful that I work from home, that I don’t have to worry about school runs, so I am able to stay inside, warm and safe. . Here’s hoping for warmer days soon! . . . #kidfreenotcarefree #kidfree #kidfreelife #childfree #childfreebychoice #childfreelife #dink #dinklife #dinks #childfreeforlife #nokidsforme #nokidsclub #toocold #toocoldoutside #toocoldforme #canadianeh🇨🇦 #canadianwinter #canadianwinters

I used to weight 50lbs more than I do today. It took me 4 years to understand how isolated I was, how out of touch I was with my body, and how I missed feeling comfortable with myself, to be able to lose the weight. . Today, I shared my 3 lessons I learned on this journey, and how little habits can make big changes. 50lbs of feeling like shit being released changes. .

You know those perfect moments? The ones where everything falls into place? That was this just a few days ago. Puck curled into me, husband beside me writing, me just knitting. . It’s funny, those moments, they always lead me to think about what I appreciate. What I am grateful for. .
