Saturday Snap – A Versatile Sign @officialRPL Regent Place Branch #yqr #ReadAboutWeed #GuideToGanja #MaryJaneMonographs #GetBuzzedonBooks

Usually, the “Homegrown” sign at my library helps identify a display of Saskatchewan books or perhaps a display of books about gardening or agriculture or something along those lines. But with the legalization of marijuana this week, we found another way to use this sign… 🙂

10 Random Thoughts as Pot Becomes Legal Across Canada

I briefly thought of doing a list of “10 of My Fondest Memories of Pot” for this post. But since it feels weird to talk about something I did that was very common within my circle of friends but illegal (even if it’s now legal), I’ve decided to hold off on that list for now.  […]

Minor Milestones While Recovering From Breaking The Scaphoid Bone In My Wrist

It’s weird how much we take having two working hands for granted. Since breaking my wrist at the end of July, it’s been a series of minor milestones – from my first appointment with my family doctor a few days after the surgery where he changed my dressing on through things like being told I […]

I’ve had some pretty down moments since breaking my wrist three weeks ago: When the ER doc said it was broken, not sprained. When she said I’d need surgery, not just a cast When Shea and I had to waste three days waiting in hospital in Regina in the midst of a 10-day camping holiday […]

I’ll Just Leave This Here Redux…

I am *not* having a good August – the tooth ache I had last weekend hurt *way* worse than breaking my wrist and led to some quality time in my dentist’s chair today. 🙁

Retro Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Broken Leg (October 2009)

I know I posted a similar pic last week but I’m not feeling too creative these days.  And yes, I did end up “fixing” my cast with duct tape at one point.
