We went to Shea’s uncle’s funeral in July 2021 and afterwards, gathered at their farm to visit. The sun was brutally hot so I ended up borrowing a ball cap from Shea’s uncle’s supply and since he didn’t need it anymore, Shea’s aunt let me keep it! Didn’t think to take it to Vegas during […]
My cousin in Calgary was surprised when some friends arranged for an Elvis impersonator to come to her 50th birthday celebration. This coincided with my aunt and uncle, also in Calgary, having their 50th Anniversary so it became a bit of a mini-family reunion. A picture of all aunts and uncles present made me imagine […]

When I met a friend for lunch at Tim Horton’s before work on Thursday, the last thing I expected to see on social media later was a pic of my car in the parking lot! Luckily it wasn’t a rant about my bad parking job or the excess of window stickers I have on my […]

One good thing about being an obsessive journal keeper since right around the time I graduated high school (and that those journals, started in WordPerfect, have now all been digitized and are completely searchable.) So that’s how I know that the very first reference I made to my mom showing signs of dementia was in […]
