Friday Fun Link – Words For That
Friday’s aren’t too fun when you’ve got four family members in various states of illness (and having two kids sick is a lot different experience than just one!) so here’s a quick link before hitting the hay (and hoping everybody can sleep through the night tonight!) Words For That
Pace’s Five Favourite Memories From His Christmas Holidays
About to return to school tomorrow (and still awake when he should be sleeping), I’ve asked Pace to be a guest blogger tonight and tell me some of his favourite memories from his Christmas holidays… Seeing the *real* Santa for the third time in his life! Santa was in the neighbourhood checking if kids were […]
Saturday Snap – Sasha Checks Out Daddy’s Library
Sasha loved crawling around the library when Shea, Pace and her came to see the magician that was appearing on Friday afternoon. The children’s area is fun, mostly because it has things that look like cords that you can actually play with (unlike the real cords at home which always get a frantic response […]
Holiday Visits = Tech Support Time
Went out to my parents’ for New Year’s Eve/New Year’s Day. As the image above notes, going home often means doing tech support – whether for Shea’s folks, my folks or anybody else I’m visiting. Not that I mind – I always am happy to have something I can contribute and am somewhat decent at […]
I Thought Last Night Was When We Were Supposed to Stay Up Until Midnight, Not Tonight!
So why are both kids still up (and apparently making a break for it???)
Christmas 2013: By The Numbers
I haven’t blogged for a few days as I got overwhelmed and busy with that “real life” thing as Shea’s folks and mine joined us from the 27th until the 29th to have a belated Christmas together. Here are a few numbers from the past week… 0 – number of times I’ve left the house […]
The Best Christmas Ever?
Only partly tongue-in-cheek, I often think that the best Christmas I ever had was when we were living in Calgary and Shea had to work on a 7am to 3pm shift on Christmas Day, leaving me all alone for the day. It sounds sad but it turned out to be a wonderful, relaxing, enjoyable day. […]
Atheist Advent Calendar – Day 24 – Keep Christ in Christmas (aka Another Fictional Superhero On Our Van)
I had a few ideas of how to wrap up this series of Atheist Advent posts – a look at how politics and religion intersect, a review of my theories of why people (really) are religious, a disclaimer about the nature of offense in general. I will spend some time on that last point. My […]
Atheist Advent Calendar – Day 23 – Music Monday – “I really like Christmas/It’s sentimental I know/But I just really like it/I’m hardly religious/I’d rather break bread with Dawkins than Desmond Tutu to be honest”
There was a method to my madness in posting a Tim Minchin song as my Music Monday selection for each of the past few weeks during my “Atheist Advent” series. It was all to lead up to Minchin’s ultimate achievement and one of the best non-traditional Christmas songs I’ve ever heard – funny, insightful, wistful, […]
