10 Thoughts on The Eve of #skpoli Debate

I haven’t been writing a lot about politics lately but wanted to note a few thoughts as the Saskatchewan provincial campaign is about halfway done and the leaders of the two main parties will have their only debate tomorrow night.

Saturday Snap – Divided Family?

‘Tis the time of year when lawn signs spring from the ground for the provincial, municipal and school board elections (why are school boards elected but not library boards?  Topic for a different post I think!) Anyhew, had a chuckle when a neighbour noticed our signs – one clearly for the NDP but the municipal […]

Music Monday – “I got 500 dollars in cash in case they don’t take AMEX/She wanted to see me so now I’m headed to/The Annex Sorority house, she snuck me in, she tried to/Keep quiet, couldn’t hold it in”

Music Monday – “Four years old/Riding that new bike/No training wheels/Holding on real tight/Oh baby/Everyone falls”

Not sure what it means when you’re getting music recommendations from your mother-in-law but that’s how I first heard of this singer who also happens to be an RN that my mother-in-law worked with prior to her retirement. Also important to note that this video has some scenes shot at Nickle Lake Regional Park where […]

Saturday Snap – Sarcan Situation

I can’t remember the last time Shea and I took recycling to Sarcan but I’m pretty sure it was before Covid and possibly not since around *last* Christmas since we only take cans every few months once they build up. Of course with Sarcan having been shut down for a few months plus our somewhat […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Snow at Shutdown (March 2020)

Happened to this picture from early March which gives a sense of how long we’ve been living with Covid.  Given that we shut down just before March 20/21, we’re technically into our third season of living with Covid – winter, spring and now summer.   And there will likely be many more seasons of Covid-life to […]
