Saturday Snap – Covid Helping Us To Connect With Long Lost Friends
Shea and I have tried to do regular video chats with various friends and family throughout this pandemic but last night, we decided to do something a bit different – instead of a sustained conversation with one person or group, we decided to try “chat roulette” where we’d message random people on our Facebook friend […]
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – “Reader Pride” Wrap-Up (June 2008)
This was the wrap-up for a major region-wide literacy program called “Time To Read” (with a slogan “Reader Pride”, a pun on Saskatchewan’s well-known “Rider Pride”) that I was involved with in my first job after I graduated from library school. It’s crazy to think how much in this photo is now being impacted by […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Luther College 1991 “Midnight Breakfast” (and Happy 5000th Blog Post To Me!)

It may or may not work but now that Scott Moe has released his plan for reopening the province, one benefit is that it makes it feel a bit more “real” that there will an end to this and the endless day of quarantine might come to an end. That got me thinking about some […]
Five Lists of Five Things I’m Thinking About As Scott Moe Prepares To Release His Five Phase Plan for Reopening Saskatchewan
Premier Scott Moe had a press conference tonight to announce that…he will be having a press conference tomorrow night to talk about how his government has a five point plan for reopening the province now that we’ve flattened the curve…maybe. There’s no doubt that Saskatchewan has done very well during the COVID-19 pandemic compared to […]
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Happy 7th Birthday Sasha (August 2019)
Here’s my sunshine at the Regina Folk Fest last summer…
Fun With Opposites – Linda from London Public Library
Was nice to see this pop up in one of my social media feeds today – one of my favourite classmates in library school (and a real life rock star librarian!) doing a digital program (and I’ll likely do a longer post at some point about the library’s role and response in the COVID era […]
