In light of yesterday’s post where I happened to share the screenshot a portion of a life advice article that said we should eat salted butter as life is too short for unsalted, I thought I’d post a pic I happened to snap at Safeway recently. Saying “life is too short for unsalted butter” may […]
Happy Family Literacy Day! Here’s some pics from a Family Literacy Day event we had at the library a few years back…
A coworker observed that an occupational hazard of working in a place where we hand out rapid tests kits is the risk of people over sharing *why* they want the tests. This gives you this wild anecdotal taste of how widespread Covid is right now – business owners, parents, students, neighbours on each side of […]

I’ve been thinking about writing a longer post with some thought about how people’s personal social media (and blog?!?) posts are increasingly having repercussions on their work life. This was especially relevant after the Sask Health Association sent out some fairly chilling messages to staff who were posting thoughts/opinions/information about Covid a few months ago. […]
