Saturday Snap – Above Ground Pool

My brother-in-law and his wife (and their young son who saved his money to help contribute!) got an above ground pool for their acreage which is halfway between where we camp at Nickle Lake and Weyburn. Still too cold for me but Sasha and her cousin were brave enough to try it out. Will be […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Sasha Sleeping (June 2013)

Really fallen into a trap of not doing daily posts but instead, falling a week behind then doing a catch-up flurry of multiple posts. C’mon AI – hurry and take over this weird self-imposed responsibility!

Shea and I have done three or four day trips to Isla Mujeres when we’ve stayed at all-inclusives in the Cancun area over the years. And every time, we come home and say “That was the best part of our trip – we should stay there for our whole trip sometime!” Isla Mujeres is a […]

Music Monday – “I miss the world before it was polluted/With space cowboy billionaires, when irony was still ironic/I miss America right after 9/11/When everyone was bonded, even if it only lasted seconds”

Took Sasha and a friend to an inclusivity celebration triple-bill of Mother Mother, Cavetown and Winnetka Bowling League at the Brandt Centre on Monday night.

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – My Grandma, My Mom and My Daughter (June 2022, July 2000)

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Let The Battle Commence! (March 2014)

I often joke the only reason we have kids is to get them to do our chores when we’re old enough. But they’re also fun to play with…sometimes literally!
