Little break from my usual rambles about management theory to share a TikTok my wife sent me. It’s the hilarious story of a boss who totally overreacts and makes a bigger deal than needed out of an employee being late due to a flat tire. Absolutely hilarious and the person who made this TikTok nailed […]
Hard to believe that fifteen years ago we were at Shea’s cousin’s wedding and took this photo of three girls (also cousins) she’d basically raised from babies with our baby. Sadly, the last time we would see the sister on the left was at the sister on the right’s wedding earlier this summer. She was […]
Been sick the past couple days but dragged my ass into work as I had a big event on. I texted Shea to ask if she was going to bring the kids and she replied “I feel like absolute crap. I did a Covid test and it negative but I feel like I was hit […]
We were lucky that Shea is a nurse as we got early access to rapid tests before they were widely distributed to the general public. No way to know for sure but I feel like that was part of why we may have been able to avoid Covid as long as we did – anytime […]
I’ve lived in Regina most of my life but had never been to the Eagles Club, a members-only space downtown that’s reminiscent of a small town bar mixed with a Royal Canadian Legion with a focus on charitable giving. So when a neighbour who’s a member invited Shea and I to join him and a […]
It was a somewhat spontaneous decision but my aunt, who already visits from BC and stays with us for about a month every spring, decided to come back and will be staying with us for a few weeks again.
Back from our most recent camping stretch but bittersweet as my inlaws decided to pull the pin after twenty years of seasonal camping. (This has been coming for awhile but still tough that the moment finally arrived.) So much of our week away was watching as they listed (and sold) their camper, packed up everything […]
We got the first delivery of a monthly subscription of dog toys & treats called “Woof Pack” today and as I thought about how neither myself (“Beer of the Month“) nor Shea (“Wine of the Month“) or Pace (“Soda Pop of the Month“) or Sasha (“Japanese Snack of the Month“) have ever had a subscription […]
Yesterday I posted about spring seeding and today I’m posting a picture the in-laws sent of our camp site – has it been a long winter or what?
Pace in early October… (Shockingly?) Shea and I didn’t test positive until December…though having a teen who pretty much self-isolates 99% of the time anyhow did help keep the rest of us safe when Pace was the first positive in the family.) And even though she ended up getting the PCR test twice in the […]
