Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Water Fountain Flower (January 2012)

One highlight of working at Central Library was being able to go out and walk around Wascana Lake (part of the largest urban park in North America!) regularly during my lunch breaks. Always liked this photo I took on my route one day…

Saturday Snap – Eagles Club

I’ve lived in Regina most of my life but had never been to the Eagles Club, a members-only space downtown that’s reminiscent of a small town bar mixed with a Royal Canadian Legion with a focus on charitable giving. So when a neighbour who’s a member invited Shea and I to join him and a […]

Saturday Snap – Small Town Funeral

I wish there was a better way to get the best tasting egg salad sandwiches on the planet.

Secular Sunday – Gone Way Too Soon

I’ve written a lot about the many many reasons I don’t believe in God. But one of the biggest is that no matter how many “God works in mysterious ways” or “He does things to test us” excuses I hear, I can’t reconcile a merciful god that would take some of the best, most amazing, […]

Saturday Snap – Boundaries? What Boundaries?

In my Wisdom Wednesday series, I’ll eventually do a post about the difference I see between what I call “black & white” thinkers and “grey area” thinkers.  (Myers-Briggs has 16 classifications.  True Colors has 4.  Hamology basically only has 2!) One big aspect of this difference is that are those who think there are hard […]

Saturday Snap – Date Night

Our first time to Blanco on Albert St. in Regina after its conversion from a tapas bar.  Excellent!

Exercised My #skpoli #ParentalRights Today…

…to encourage my daughter to become a kind, empathetic, supportive human being. (Too bad the parents of many of the current Sask Party MLAs didn’t share similar lessons with their kids before they became regressive, reactive bullies.)  

Saturday Snap – Rider Game

Got offered some last minute tickets to the Riders game tonight.  Free tickets and between parking, food, drinks, and souvenirs, I think I spent $300 LOL!

Saturday Snap – National Day for Truth & Reconciliation (Words vs. Actions)

I recently wrote about the gap that often exists between words and action. This may be the most egregious example I’ve ever seen: On the national day for truth and reconciliation we wanted to remember the last day camp buffalo bones stood. The mayor wanted to commemorate NDTR on Wednesday- this audio is from that […]

Saturday Snap – Glow Float

The Kayak Club at Nickle Lake where we camp recently had their first-ever “Glow Float” fundraiser where you could rent a kayak or stand-up paddle board (or bring your own), decorate it with glow sticks and then take it out for an hour late on a Sunday night. We were going to do it but […]
