Pace has been working at some Pats’ games to earn money for a school trip. We signed him up for the Saturday game not thinking that it would be Frost Festival at REAL but luckily I popped into the Exhibition Grounds on Friday night on the way to supper with some friends and realised that […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Our (Legal) Wedding Twenty Years Ago (February 2003)

A few days ago, I posted how it was our 20th anniversary (at least of our legal wedding, not of the ceremony we had on the beach in Mexico a month later which is the anniversary we “count”.) Here’s a picture from our legal wedding (and coincidentally, my cousin who stood up with me happens […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Going To Winterpeg (January 2013)

Saturday Snap – Doggy Paddle Training?

Charlie has decided he loves to jump into the tub.  I guess that’s better than having a dog that hates water but definitely makes our baths…interesting.

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – RPL Staff Day 2017

I was going to do a post about the most memorable moments (good and bad!) at the various RPL Staff Development Days/Staff Conferences I’ve attended over the years (including five years on the planning committee and three years as Chair) but I don’t really have the energy for it because as I type this, it’s […]

Charlie Content As Requested

Due to a PD day later this week at work, I ended up with an unusual mid-week day off. But that was okay as it gave me an excuse to take Charlie for a walk and meet the kids after school which was a first…

“Tell Me About A Time You’ve Gone Above and Beyond To Help Someone?”

One of the great ironies of the working world is that we often questions like the one above in interviews of new staff but then hire people who don’t feel empowered to actually go “above and beyond” to help people.
