and asked if I’d moved the blog somewhere else and was chatting over there. No, I promise, I’ve just been beyond lazy about updating lately. I”m not avoiding you mom. You’re so funny!
I had a poopy head cold this weekend and I’ve got class in downtown Vancouver tomorrow and Tuesday so this will [...]

Love me some lazy Saturday on the couch

Happy Thursday!
Hubby needed a camera for work, for insurance claims and such. He decided it would be good if he took my old Canon Powershot and I got a new one. He also did not have to tell me twice. On Tuesday a new little Canon Elph came home to live at our house. It is [...]

I’ve always hated that oaky flavour in wines so this is just wonderful. Sorry, I’m probably showing myself [...]

What that means in practice is that you will be attending approximately 5 to 8 days of off site training/education at [...]

The smell of biscuits
Had a rather challenging day at work today and decided at around 10:00 am this morning that when I got home today I’d make some biscuits or some muffins. Something that I could have for a quick breakfast in the morning as I run to the bus so that I am suitably fortified for the [...]

When the rains come…
the phlox has no chance of remaining the tallest flower in the garden! Remember when it was sooooo hot here? Come on, you must remember me whining (as I so often do in the summer) about the heat? Well, the phlox in the garden was so tall and lovely. The smell was absolutely intoxicating. I [...]
