A former colleague on the Ryan Meili Leadership Campaign v 2.0 (the tall blonde guy in the above picture) recently went viral with a tweet about how he was able to support one of his female employees during Covid. This even included his story getting highlighted on ABC’s “Good Morning America”! I’m not a big […]

Saturday Snap – Snow Day? What’s That?
We had a bit of a surprise waiting for us when we opened our front door after the big snow/wind storm earlier this week. In fact, pretty much our whole house was caked in snow like this – pretty cool effect – almost like living in a snow globe!
The Covid Continuum
As Saskatchewan adds more restrictions, mostly on retailers in the post-Christmas period, I’m thinking a lot about how everyone is somewhere different on what I think of as the “Covid Continuum”. I’d say the range for this starts with anyone who’s absolutely minimized their outings since March – maybe only leaving the house to buy […]

RPL’s Marketing Unit has created some great content recently including this timely video featuring a number of well-known Regina names…
Saturday Snap – I Shouldn’t Find This So Funny…
…but the fact that Andrew Scheer’s Regina office is right beside a vape shop strikes me as hilarious for some reason.
Friday Fun Link – Nice Lights! @HawksleyWorkman

I keep looking at old pictures and thinking about how much has changed due to Covid. Here’s another example: – more than 30 people gathered – dancing – singing – drinking – communal meal – close together – no masks On and on…
Covid 19 Vaccine Arrives in Saskatchewan!
Have to admit Shea and I both had tears in our eyes watching the first two healthcare workers be vaccinated this evening in Regina (in the very hospital Shea works in and has worked in all year without a break) after what has been a long, strange, stressful year. There are a lot of reasons […]
Music Monday – “But that world is gone/It’s all disappeared/It’s just me and the ponies/For Christmas this year”
With the announcement of stronger Covid restrictions for Saskatchewan, just in time for Christmas, this song has been going through my head non-stop… “Just Me and These Ponies (For Christmas This Year)” – Corb Lund
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Where The Buffalo Roam (April 2007)
Earlier this summer, we heard that Shea’s cousin’s herd of bison had gotten out and were in a nearby farmer’s field. We knew that previously when only one animal had gotten out, her uncle had been able to guide him back into the pasture using a front-end loader tractor he used to feed them which […]
