This was an eventful weekend for my eldest daughter. She was going to Mission, BC to take part in the BC Ukrainian Cultural Festival for the first time. We had planned to go over on Friday night and spend it at the hotel visiting with her friends, socializing and hanging out in anticipation of a... Continue Reading →

Taxi-derpy
I was planning to do another weird shit compilation this week because I have a few doozies sitting on my phone. But during the course of digging up info for one of the NGO's that I work with, I came across a treasure trove of crazy images through good old Google. A couple of the... Continue Reading →
Murphy can bite me
I'm not a typically negative person. I think I'm quite optimistic, with a dose of realism thrown in just to motivate me. But then there is the principle of Murphy's Law that I find utterly baffling. It states that if anything can go wrong, it will. Statistically speaking, it really shouldn't happen that way. Have... Continue Reading →
What you talking about, Willis?
Along the lines of the weird shit compilations, I seem to come into ear shot of the oddest conversations. It just leaves you wondering just what the hell they had been talking about in the first place. When hubs and I started dating, he didn't believe me when I said that I seem to be...

The live specimen, which is quite majestic, can be found basking in the sun on rock walls and cement pads. But we have neither so we were completely oblivious to their very existence in our area.

Weird Shit Part 1
I seem to be a weird shit magnet. So I'm going to start a series on the weird things that I encounter. I figure if I'm going to be sitting there with a glass of wine in my hand, shaking my head while reflecting on my day, I may as well give you some enjoyment... Continue Reading →
Bongo Bum
Today was a particularly bad morning at our house. My daughter with ADD is very distractible, and this morning she couldn't keep it together for any task. When I said "please get dressed for the day," she heard "roll around naked on your bedroom floor smacking your bum cheeks like bongos." It took her 35... Continue Reading →
Just what happened?
Can you tell me what just happened? I feel stunned. On Feb 9, 2015 was Family Day in British Columbia - a long weekend. So we wanted to take a break from the stresses of home life and get away with the kids. We thought it would be a great time to finally plan a trip... Continue Reading →
