This is a picture of my parents at my cousin’s wedding dance in Calgary in 2003. (His marriage lasted about three years while mom and dad will be celebrating 50 years of marriage later this month! But to be fair, my cousin had better luck the second time around – and has been married to […]
As yesterday was my “work-iversary” of starting at Regina Public Library in 2008, I thought I’d post one of my favourite pictures of all-time for “Throwback Thursday”. This is a scan of a print (remember those where you’d get 24 photos in a roll of film for a camera?) of me coming out of the […]
I don’t think Pace has a theme song for his grade eight grad today. In my hometown, I went to elementary school until grade six then to high school in grade seven and I didn’t have a grade six grad theme song either (that I remember.). But it’s got me thinking back to my own […]

Sasha, Pace and I comparing hand sizes a week after she was born…
Shea and I have been showing the kids a lot of our favourite movies from when we were growing up – “Dirty Dancing” to “Adventures in Babysitting” to “Airplane!” – movies that both of us remember being allowed to watch by our parents at relatively young ages with no censorship or restrictions (*maybe* I’d […]
As Saskatchewan adds more restrictions, mostly on retailers in the post-Christmas period, I’m thinking a lot about how everyone is somewhere different on what I think of as the “Covid Continuum”. I’d say the range for this starts with anyone who’s absolutely minimized their outings since March – maybe only leaving the house to buy […]
