Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Smile! (May 2014)

I love watching my kids grow but I miss when they were small too…mostly because you could dress them in ways that were as entertaining to you as a parent as anything!

Saturday Snap – My Good Deed For The Week?

Last week, a buddy who lives nearby asked if I’d help him move a fridge. Since I was picking up a free growler of beer he’d offered, I felt like I had to say “yes” (just kidding – I would’ve said “yes” even without the beer bribe!) But I misunderstood what he was asking. I […]

One Month To Camping (Maybe?)

Watched the Nickle Lake AGM livestream tonight (one good thing coming out of Covid is increasing use of video for things like this) and very excited to think that we might be in our campsite in a month…if it ever quits snowing so we don’t have to dress like this at our campsite!

Saturday Snap – Happy Ninth Birthday, Sasha!

One thing I’ve noticed on Facebook is how many parents mark their children’s birthdays by acknowledging how proud they are that their child is kind and smart and funny and all that sort of stuff. It’s almost like it comes out of a factory with how every kid has such similar qualities. Sasha turns nine […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Puddle Jumping (April 2013)

Our old house used to get a huge lake in front of it once all the snow melted. At least it gave us a good spot to go puddle jumping…

Another (Minor) Covid Milestone?

I had been in Pace’s high school for various reasons over the years – through my work, for political events, when the kids’ elementary school Winter Concerts were held in the much larger high school auditorium. Of course high school is a bit different than elementary school but still feels strange that tonight was the […]

Saturday Snap – You Up For A Pint?

One of our neighbours occasionally texts “You up for a pint?” Most of the time he means beer but the other night, he showed up with a pint jar of homemade moonshine his co-worker had given him. (Apparently the secret is to dissolve Jolly Rancher candies in the mixture?!?)

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Welcome Jason! (October 2009)

My former colleagues from Southeast Regional Library welcomed me as an observer to their SILS training sessions that they were doing at the Regina Public Library training room prior to the move to a province-wide library consortium over ten (!) years ago. (Look at the size of those monitors!)
