Covid-19: A Year in Review

But remembering the past is also a way of believing that this moment will someday be the past. Which is to say, nostalgia for the past is also a way of believing in the future. Daydreaming about the After Times — the Before Times’s mythic counterpart — is in part an exercise in imagining what it will […]

  Shea and I have been showing the kids a lot of our favourite movies from when we were growing up – “Dirty Dancing” to “Adventures in Babysitting” to “Airplane!” – movies that both of us remember being allowed to watch by our parents at relatively young ages with no censorship or restrictions (*maybe* I’d […]

Saturday Snap – Snow Day? What’s That?

“Mommy, you know how you mix a couple different things in a drink sometimes?”

“Yes, did you really make me a rum and egg nog?  Or a rum and coke?” “Even better – I put egg nog and wine together since I know those are two of your favourite drinks!”

Friday Fun Link – Nice Lights! @HawksleyWorkman

Shea and I took the kids for our annual “Twinkle Tour” around Regina tonight and funny to think how Covid has even influenced this simple tradition… – immediately noticing a higher amount of traffic at the “starred” houses on the Sparkle Tour web site, likely because there are fewer other entertainment options – no work […]
