Here’s my sunshine at the Regina Folk Fest last summer…
…picking away at a very important COVID post (well, very long anyhow!) but in the meantime, here’s a pic of how we showed we love nurses during this pandemic…
When you wake up from a nap and see your daughter has left you a healthy snack consisting of…a fruit roll-up and a Werther’s candy. 🙂
My daughter doesn’t realise that when her dad was growing up, before the Internet and the 500-channel universe, TV bingo and polka parties were literally the only forms of entertainment available (no wonder I became such a big reader!) 😉 We re-created a small-town Saskatchewan Saturday night at our house tonight: Playing (fake) TV Bingo… […]
