I’ve got a mini-Beatles/music theme going on the past couple days (so much so that when I looked at my post about the Mi’kmaq version of “Blackbird” yesterday, I thought it *was* my Music Monday post and I’d somehow missed posting on Tuesday!)
Anyhow, to keep the theme going, here’s a YouTube video about one of the most amazing combinations of the Beatles’ musical and technological genius coming together in a single edit within one of their greatest songs.
The program offers:
* Drop-in counselling on a first-come, first-served basis.
* People who are interested can sign-up when they arrive at the branch.
* Sessions are one hour in length.
* They are held in a private room with a certified counsellor.
* People can talk about anything from anxiety and depression to parenting and relationships or anything else they might be struggling with.
Shea and Sasha went out to our seasonal site this weekend while I stayed in the city to work and Pace stuck around to play video games visit his Aunt Sandi who is visiting from Kelowna.
Shea sent me this picture and said Sasha told her it was the best camping ever because “daddy isn’t here to steal my bacon!” 🙂
We’ve been replacing our forty year old original fence in a series of mini-projects over the past five years.
We started with the back part of our yard in May 2014 which was a major job as the neighbour directly behind us (no back alley) is at the end of a crescent on a pie-shaped lot so his yard touches on four neighbours on our side and we had to get everyone and everything coordinated between multiple families.
Then in May 2016, we tackled the fence along the south side of our house which included putting in a new gate, some lattice on top of the fence at the front of the yard (not shown) and a couple other features beyond what you’d find on a regular fence.
Last year, in May 2018, we tackled the final section of fence that needed replaced – a section along the north side of our house along our driveway which meant working with our next door neighbour again (who happens to be a carpenter so a good guy to involve in a project like this!) We also got helping hands from a few other family members of his and mine (my dad shown) as well as a general labourer who also had carpentry experience that we hired off Kijiji because, face it, we’re all getting older and doing it all ourselves would probably cause heart attacks all around!
Shea and I finally finished the project in two marathon days earlier this week where we stained the whole fence – across the back of our yard and along both sides of our house. (Uhm, what do you mean we should do two coatings of stain??? Maybe the project will be finished for sure next May!) 😉
