Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Camp Chef

Pace and his girlfriend spent a few days at our campsite last week solo and it makes you wonder where the time goes…

Saturday Snap – Farewell Aunt Sandi (2026 Edition)

My mom’s sister, Sandi, has been coming from Kelowna to stay with us in Regina for about a month every spring ever since my son was born. Since my mom was diagnosed with dementia she’s ended up spending more of her time in Indian Head so she can be with mom.  She’s also been coming […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – List of People I’ve Reported to at Regina Public Library in 17 Years

I’m going to try to (roughly) put these in order but it’s a long list and so I may not get it perfect…everybody I’ve reported to at RPL in 17 years, either officially or temporarily when I was between managers (which could often be a fairly long stretch as well.) I feel lucky as I […]

Music Monday – “Think of you with pipe and slippers, think of her in bed/Laying there just watching telly, then think of me instead.”

Going through a bit of a Beautiful South phase right now.  Discovered them while on exchange in England and have fond memories of singing their sarcastic lyrics over beautiful melodies in the hallway with my dormmates. Even had “Prettiest Eyes” as Shea’s and my first song at our wedding dance! “Don’t Marry Her (Fuck Me)” […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Home Ownership Is Awesome! (Aug 2016)

Original Star Wars Movie Being Re-Released in Theatres For Its 50th Anniversary

Easily the movie I’ve watched the most times in my life.  In the olden days when you would rent a VCR and get four movies to watch over a weekend, I would watch this multiple times.  Over the years, I’ve probably watched it two dozen times?  Maybe more. Star Wars. Not Episode 4. Not A […]

Wisdom Wednesday – Meetings

Running an effective meeting is one of the core skills managers and supervisors need in any organization.  (I don’t agree with everything in this picture but I do agree that meetings and how they are run is a reflection of your larger culture.)

Saturday Snap – Seven Year Ditch?

We bought our house in fall 2019 so have lived here for nearly seven years. When we moved, we got a dumpster and got rid of a lot of excess crap that was old/broken/worn or that we didn’t want to move for one reason or another (as much as I wanted to keep that 1989 […]

Friday Fun Link – Hogan vs. Flair

In terms of the biggest “what ifs” in wrestling is what a match between the two biggest stars of the 80s & 90s, Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair would have been like with proper build-up before being a main event at wrestling’s biggest event, Wrestlemania. It was possible for Wrestlemania VIII but never happened with […]
