Pace playing on the children's computer at RPL's Sherwood Village Library earlier today (and you know you're a library nerd when you take the whole family there on your day off after spending the whole week working at the library!)
This is a pretty informative beer label…
I haven't done any freelance writing (the kind that pays anyhow!) for quite awhile but through an old high school friend who works in magazine publishing, recently ended up with an assignment to write a profile of a world champion female kick boxer who happens to work in my hometown. I did the interview at […]
I rediscovered this this box in the garage recently and Pace was *very* excited to get so many “new” toys all at once! For Pace, it's new but for me, this box contains so many childhood memories. I used to spend hours, not just re-enacting Star Wars & GI Joe scenes but using the figures […]

I know you can do this with most cameras these days (including ours) and probably with Photoshop and all the other similar programs. […]
We went to the Western Development Museum in Moose Jaw today (I didn't post it on my Facebook in case someone saw my status update and broke into our home as many will be led to believe is inevitable if they saw the fear-mongering report on the CKCK evening news yesterday – terrible! ) We […]
I think the secret is to avoid watching YouTube videos of other two year olds who are reciting Shakespeare and playing piano…
