Nine Nine!

The great Albus Dumbledore once said, (yeah, yeah he's fictional I know, shut up) "Words are, in my not so humble opinion, our most inexhaustible source of magic, capable of both inflicting injury and remedying it."

This week's comic strip only proves it.

Can't Get Me Outta My Head

They say that the idle mind is a devil's workshop. In the case of Mrs. Ninja, that is an understatement.

Suffice to say, her mind is a whole universe on its own and she sometimes forgets to step out of it!

Hunger Games

The one stark difference between Mrs. and Mr. Ninja is their attitude towards food - or as Mr. Ninja likes to put it, he eats to live while Mrs. Ninja lives to eat.

But hey, the longer a couple spends time together, few habits are bound to crossover...and not necessarily the ones that you'd like.

That Moment When

5 years ago to this day, my husband and I had what was my idea of a perfect wedding. No, I'm not talking about the big one with all the people and the white dress.

I'm talking about months later, the day we went and made it official at the marriage registrar office. Quick, chilled out, no dress code & no paparazzi - just the way I liked it. I still joke about how I'd have gotten married online if I could've (does that sound too millennial?).

This week's comic is a tribute to the story I tell people when they ask me about "that moment" I decided "I'm totally marrying this guy".

Some Kind of Colourful

If you've been reading Being Mrs. Ninja for a while now you probably know that I love puns and can get a little crazy with my metaphors.

This week we talk about when this interest of mine sneaks into situations it really shouldn't be part of.

Jackass of all Trades

Sometimes you want to do a little bit of everything and you end up piling way too many things on your plate - that happens to me more often than not. 'No time' is no excuse as I personally think if you really want to do it you will make time.

But once in a while you have to step back and take a breather. I grossly underestimated the importance of relaxation. But now I'm learning more about how it works through the book I'm reading "Will Power Doesn't Work" by Ben Hardy.

I never really apologise to my readers when I miss a Thursday here and there in the middle of a season because I feel shamelessly confident that they know I'm doing my best and if I didn't post there'd be a good reason. Also, because I don't do this full time. Ha.

Anyway that's a lot more writing than I usually do - after a ton of traveling and relaxing I'm back with more stories to share :)

As always, keep reading and spread the laughter around!
Cheers.

10 Points to Gryffindor

So by now you've probably seen so many instances where Mrs. Ninja is trying to keep up with Mr. Ninja's work talk by learning the common acronyms used in his field.

Here's another hilarious moment where Mrs. Ninja seems to be trying too hard when she really isn't - it's almost coming naturally to her now!

Everybody Loves Freebies

It's not my birthday today. Nor is it my birthday for a long time. But I was reminded of this story the other day when I was trying to figure out some gifting solutions for a birthday party I had to attend.

I'm pretty sure Mr. Ninja's most stressful chore is getting a gift for Mrs. Ninja on her birthday. In fact, he solves this problem but outright asking what the desired gift is for the birthday that year (it takes all the fun out of gift-getting but is definitely more practical).

This week's comic strip shows he doesn't take ALL the fun out of it ;)

Beet Emotions

Mr. Ninja is always about finding the (quickest) solution to a problem while Mrs. Ninja's process is as much about the journey as the destination. Which is also probably why she takes longer to get certain things done, though rest assured they will get done...you know, eventually.

This week we throw it back to when Mr. Ninja could be convinced to partake in the "journey" bit of the process and then snap back to present day reality.

P.S. This week's comic strip is Supernatural-themed (#SorryNotSorry) because the show's been renewed for a 14th season & I'm like whaaat!

New Season, New Hair

If anyone was following my reminders about Season 3's premiere today, I know I'm probably sharing this much later in the day than was imagined. Hey, I don't do this full time, so things like this are bound to happen.

Anyway, as we go further into the season I'm gonna try new experiments on the design treatment every now and then..here's to another adventurous season! If you've stuck around so far I hope you continue to do so with me :)

P.S. Holy moly, we've reached No. 90! Any ideas for how I should celebrate 100? ;)
