Four years ago, I never imagined that I’d be laying in bed tonight with my perfect, wonderful son, having this conversation: “What am I made of, daddy?” “You’re made of lots of stuff – bones and muscles and skin.” “And what else?” “Well, did you know that most people are mostly made up of water?” […]
We got back from our trip to Calgary last night but after unpacking and doing a few things around the house, I didn’t get around to posting. But I’ve decide to backdate this post on Tuesday to yesterday so I can do a Music Monday post as it connects pretty directly to our trip. We’d […]
Apparently I don’t have any pictures of me with my mom on my computer. So instead, here’s one of Pace and his Grandma when we stopped by the Indian Head Union Hospital on our way out of town during a recent visit to Grandpa and Grandma’s. Technically, my mom “retired” from nursing a few years […]
With the amount of moisture we’ve had for the past couple winters and last summer as well, much of Saskatchewan is experiencing the worst flooding we’ve had in forty years. Katepwa Lake, north of Indian Head, where our family has a cottage is no exception. Last weekend, Shea, Pace and I were out to do […]
Tout is a new social media site that combines elements of Facebook, Twitter and YouTube to allow you to do 15-second video status updates. “Some moments in life just can’t be reflected in text.

Penciled in the Gold Medal Curling Game as my Sunday night’s entertainment. (I also have the PVR set to record “60 Minutes” every week though, in defense of my youth, I haven’t watched a single episode yet!) Spent time before the curling started getting my sump pump up and running. Spent last night playing a […]
Went to a first birthday party in Regina this afternoon… …then on to Indian Head for a birthday for my dad which was also his first…for this year! 😉
Apparently I wasn’t the only one who got inspired by Dwain Lingenfelter talking about his father at the recent NDP convention. The NDP candidate in my area, Jaime Garcia, writes about the inspiration his own father has been to him. Since the federal election’s been called, there have been lots of people grumbling that it’s a […]
Our first morning in Varadero, Shea, Pace and I woke up early (well, we woke Mr. Sleepy Head up!) and made our way down to the beach which we ended up having pretty much to ourselves. One of many special moments from our trip…
