Saturday Snap – What Does This Person Know That The Rest of Us Don’t???

Shea and I finally made it to Costco nearly four months to the day after our last visit, right after we returned from Mexico and right before Covid hit.

I had to chuckle seeing someone buying a cartload of toilet paper imagining that’s probably what *every* cart at Costco looked like a couple months ago (okay, I know there were limits but let me have my funny image!)

I especially couldn’t figure it out when I noticed that we’ve come so far in the pandemic that toilet paper isn’t just available for bulk purchase but it’s on sale too!

Happy Canada Day!

I know I’ve posted this before, possibly on a previous Canada Day, but Mike Plume just posted an updated version so here it is again…

Sasha lost one front tooth last weekend…

Secular Sunday – Church Donations Have Plunged Due to Coronavirus. Some Might Not Survive.

I’m an atheist but I acknowledge the massive role the church has played in various major aspects of society for thousands of years – from being host to many people’s personal milestones like weddings and funerals to influencing global geopolitics.

The power of the church has been falling for awhile now but the impacts of this pandemic will be far-reaching and may change society in ways we can’t even begin to imagine including possibly being the final nail in the coffin for many churches.

Saturday Snap – Artistic Brush


Not a painting brush but a pile of brush in the green space behind our house that the person cutting grass artfully drove around!

Friday Fun Link – Library Run “Famous Quotes” Database

I’ve always loved quotations and used to even “read” quotation books.  Now the web has modernized the idea in the form of quote web sites.

There are a few options out there but I recently found out that a library system in Kentucky runs its own “Famous Quotes” web site which is pretty cool!

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – How Naive We Were (School Year 2016-2017)

As June comes to an end, I have to post this meme I recently rediscovered.

It’s funny how dabbing, fidget spinners and bottle flipping were the biggest issues a teacher had to deal with a few years back!

I’m not up to doing a full photoshop job but can only imagine the updated version of this image with an outline of the microscopic image of the Coronavirus tentacled ball…

A disposable mask…

And maybe a silhouette of a Zoom meeting!
