Saturday Snap – A Day in Saskatoon #yxe

Why I’m Voting “Yes” in the #yqr #wwtp Referendum (And No, It’s Not For The Reasons You Might Expect)

Some Sasha Stuff

Sasha turned five months old a couple days ago so I thought it might be fun to note a few of the things going on in her life these days… – she’s an unbelievable sleeper. Like, she goes down at 8pm and sleeps right through to 8am without waking up almost every single night! (Although […]

Like the majority of the show’s millions of fans, Shea and I came late to […]

Saturday Snap – En Garde!

A local fencing club was winding up a practice in the same Leisure Centre where Pace just finished swimming lessons. I took him over to peek at the action from the gym door and the members of the group, including a National Champion, could not have been more welcoming when they saw a young kid […]

Saturday Snap – Farewell Outreach!

After eighteen months, I had my final shift at Regina Public Library’s Outreach Unit yesterday.  (On Tuesday, I become Branch Supervisor of our Regent Place Branch.)

Saturday Snap – Go Riders Go!

After today’s win, the Riders are 7-1, their best start since 1971. Even Sasha’s on the bandwagon, courtesy of an old outfit she inherited from her brother (first of many I’m sure!)
