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 […]

Friday Fun Link – Canadian Perverts

Jim Gaffigan who is known as a pretty clean, dad-bod-type comic gets downright raunchy after a visit to <checks notes>…Regina, Saskatchewan?!?

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 […]

A Few Camping Highlights

I briefly thought of backdating a bunch of photo posts, one for every day of our recent camping holiday but realised that’d be a lot of work (not to mention more evidence of my self-diagnosed OCD regarding my “must post daily” goal.) Anyhow, I thought I’d post just a few highlights in a single post […]

Camping Countdown

Going camping for a couple weeks starting at the end of this week so likely won’t be doing daily posts since the Internet out there is pretty crappy. See you in August!

Saturday Snap – A Different Kind of Barn Raising?

Our next door neighbour at the lake showed up with a barn-shaped shed that he said was his Covid project with his kids (much more ambitious than *my* Covid quarantine project which was eating my body weight in chips and beer!) 😉 Anyhow, it was a huge job to get it placed, taking about ten […]

Throwback Thursday – Family Portrait at the Library (June 2011)

Music Monday – “Time stand still/I’m not looking back/But I want to look around me now”

I’ve been into my branch a handful of times since it shut down three months ago. But as RPL has begun slowly reopening over the past couple weeks, today was my first day back in branch doing more traditional library work.  This is because we’ve started having mid-sized and smaller branches in the RPL system […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Our First Dine-In Restaurant Meal in Three Months! (March 2020-June 2020)

Usually my “Throwback Thursday” posts go at least a few years back. But this one has me thinking of the past three months – from our last dine-in meal at the Houston Pizza near our house on Friday March 13 after we picked up the kids from what would be their last day of school […]
