Throwback Thursday – Happy Anniversary to Me! (September 2008)

I started at Regina Public Library on September 8, 2008 so this year is my ten year anniversary at RPL. Traditionally, people have thought of thirty years as a “typical” career in a workplace and though I worked for a decade in another sector before librarianship and though I also spent a couple years in […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Future Tag Team Champions? (August 2012)

Pace and a buddy at the free Stampede Wrestling show during the Regina Exhibition a few years back…

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Peet Family Reunion (July 2013)

Earlier this summer in my post about a cousin that passed away, I mentioned how I was fortunate to know the many members of the Hammond side of the family quite well because I grew up in the same town as the matriarch of our family. For a variety of reasons, I never got to […]

Retro Throwback Thursday – #tbt – I’m Going In! (August 2009)

Pace looks like he wants to go swimming in Regina’s City Hall fountain…

Retro Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Broken Leg (October 2009)

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Broken Leg (October 2009)

Breaking my wrist last week means I made it nearly a decade since my last broken bone (and Pace remains equally horrified/fascinated by my latest injury!)

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Camping Before the rPod (July 2011)

Shea’s parents had a motorhome that we borrowed a few times including a trip to White Bear in southeast Saskatchewan…

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – RIP Cousin

While camping a couple summers ago, we got word that, after years battling a variety of health issues, one of my dad’s ten siblings had started to fail and passed away soon after. Considering that dad was from a family of ten kids and all of his siblings had managed to reach their late 60s, […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Protesting at the Saskatchewan Legislature, Then & Now (February 11, 2000) #skpoli #yqr

From my personal journal, February 11, 2000: Settle in to bed (well, a sleeping bag under a cafeteria table) about midnight. Oh, when we get back from grabbing our sleeping bags, I offer to bring a coffee to the security guard and end up having a big talk with him – about how he got […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Rider Game at Taylor Field (July 2012)

Thinking of our tour of the new Mosaic Stadium yesterday, here’s a pic from a game we went to a few years ago in the old Taylor Field (not sure how we got such great seats – think we bought them last minute off Kijiji?)
