Music Monday – “But I want old men making my whiskey/I want old men singing my blues/I want old men teaching my horses/’Cuz there’s just some things, young men can’t do/Like the old boys do”

The new Corb Lund album is an instant favourite, not least because, as I turn 47 later this week, this song dedicated to the value of the more seasoned among us resonates pretty heavily! 😉 “Old Men” – Corb Lund

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – “We are closing for at least two weeks, maybe more” (March 16, 2020)

This was the sign one of my staff hastily wrote during the frantic last day my library was open to the public (which ironically, I suspect was one of the busiest circulation days in my branch’s history as people took *armloads* of books – perhaps realising our project of “at least a couple weeks” was […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – How Naive We Were (School Year 2016-2017)

As June comes to an end, I have to post this meme I recently rediscovered. It’s funny how dabbing, fidget spinners and bottle flipping were the biggest issues a teacher had to deal with a few years back! I’m not up to doing a full photoshop job but can only imagine the updated version of […]
