Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Possession Day! (November 2019)

Hard to believe it was a year ago on November 22 that we took possession of our new house. It has been an eventful twelve months to say the least and though it was a big, stressful decision at the time, probably one of the best decisions of our lives!

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – 10 Horrifying Things I Saw Watching Family Home Movies From the 1970’s

As previously mentioned, we went to Indian Head to celebrate my parents’ 49th wedding anniversary last weekend. As part of the trip down memory lane, we ended up watching some old home movies one night. My dad regularly filmed holidays and parties and family gatherings with an 8mm camera when we were kids so, when […]

Throwback Thursday – Beer Coaster Collage (1995 to now)

I went through a phase in college where I collected beer coasters.  I never did anything with them but after rediscovering them in a container when we moved to our new house, I decided to at least mount them on an unused corkboard. (Of course, since we’re in a new house and our tastes are […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – The American Election: Controversy, Campaigns and Complexity (November 2016)

I attended a presentation at RPL about the history of American elections just prior to the 2016 US election. It was a great presentation but I’ll always remember the Q&A at the end – someone asked “Who do you think will win?” and the presenter looked out, half chuckled (as did most of us in […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – NDP Means A Healthy Society (February 2013) #skpoli #skvotes

This is a very cool poster that Ryan Meili’s team created during his 2013 leadership run. The design may be retro but the message is more timely than ever as Saskatchewan and the entire world try to figure out the best way forward in the midst of a worldwide pandemic. I don’t know about you […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Sold! (October 2019)

It feels like a lot more than a year ago that our offer on a new house was accepted.  But the truth is that it was only a year ago this week that it became official. At the time, who knew this new house would become so much more than a slightly newer, slightly bigger, […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – My First Ever Amazon Order (August 1997)

Was digging through the depths of my computer’s hard drive and came across a pretty amazing find…the email receipt I got for my first ever order from Amazon back in summer 1997. A few things to note… not sure why but I used my work email address for the order when I’m pretty sure I […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – My Favourite US Trip? (January 2012)

After last week’s post thinking back to the last time I think I traveled to the US, I thought it’d be fun to also highlight what was probably my favourite US trip ever for another “Throwback Thursday” post. I was very fortunate to have parents who loved traveling and growing up, I got to travel […]
