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 […]

Scott Moe Booed at the Brier

The Brier is basically Scott Moe’s base – older, white, rural – and he got booed?!? I mean, a lot of grandparents have grandkids who are being screwed by the Sask Party’s unwillingness to negotiate in good faith with STF. Maybe it’s finally reaching people that Moe has to go? Scott Moe gets booed at […]

Saturday Snap – Brier Trophy

My library was fortunate enough to have the Brier Trophy present for an event last December as it made various stops around Regina and Saskatchewan in advance of the Montana Brier Tournament which has run from March 1-10. I got my picture taken with a volunteer who kept an eye on the trophy during our […]

Music Monday – “And the girls would spend a couple of bucks/Just to meet the boys workin’ at the pumps/And we’d pull up and fall in love/And they’ve all moved away”

RIP Toby Keith. Lots of famous musicians have recorded Fred Eaglesmith songs but he just happens to have recorded my favourite which reminds me so much of my high school years working in a small town gas station: “White Rose” – Toby Keith

Who Said Non-Stop Playing Video Games Was Bad For You?

Incredibly proud of Pace who, along with two of his classmates from Thom Collegiate, got voted by his peers as having the second most popular video game in the video game class he took at Campus Regina! The class had students from high schools all across Regina and 13 different games being demoed at the […]

Music Monday – “It’s coming on Christmas/They’re cutting down trees They’re putting up reindeer/Singing songs of joy and peace/I wish I had a river I could skate away on”

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Water Fountain Flower (January 2012)

One highlight of working at Central Library was being able to go out and walk around Wascana Lake (part of the largest urban park in North America!) regularly during my lunch breaks. Always liked this photo I took on my route one day…

Saturday Snap – Eagles Club

I’ve lived in Regina most of my life but had never been to the Eagles Club, a members-only space downtown that’s reminiscent of a small town bar mixed with a Royal Canadian Legion with a focus on charitable giving. So when a neighbour who’s a member invited Shea and I to join him and a […]
