Music Monday – “Don’t your feet get cold in the winter time?/The sky won’t snow and the sun won’t shine/It’s hard to tell the night time from the day/You’re losin’ all your highs and lows/Ain’t it funny how the feeling goes away?”

I’ve managed to hit the first two major concerts at the new Mosaic Stadium – the “test case” one with Bryan Adams last May then the first “superstar” one with G ‘n’ R last August. The next big one happened last Thursday as The Eagles were in Regina for the Memorial Cup kick-off but I […]

Friday Fun Link – @officialRPL Mother’s Day Video

This RPL Mother’s Day video is great! It makes me excited for RPL Father’s Day video next month where various dads who work for the system try not to get emotional while reading passages from “Fight Club” to our children. 😉   Just kidding – this video is great and I know I can’t get […]

Music Monday – “There are things that make me dad/You seem to be all of them.”

I used this song for a montage when Pace turned six but really think of it as “Sasha’s song” since it was the first song I sang to her in the delivery room after she was born. Pace’s first song was more planned – I knew I wanted to play him John Lennon’s “Beautiful Boy” […]

Music Monday – “I’ve got that whiskey in the eye, my love/You know I’m not afraid to fight/Cause word’s been gettin’ round this town/and I can’t wait another night”

Music Monday – “I like girls that Wear Abercrombie and Fitch/I’d take her if I had one wish/But she’s been gone/Since that summer”

Not sure what the statute of limitations is on me posting songs from my “Tropical Vacation Tunes” playlist after our holiday is over.  But I’m going to keep doing it for the time being (and since there’s more than 52 songs on that playlist, who knows – maybe I’ll post one a week until our […]
