Four hours of set up, too many tequilas and running out of space on our recording device (luckily we had a back up) this, ahem, VERY LONG “show” is ready for your listening torture. This could be our very first drunk cast! We attempt the following discussions: Rod’s Bday Party Recap Chrystal is contacted by [...]

There are many things that occur in this day and age that sicken me. There are too many to mention and it is probably one of the main reasons that I choose not to watch the news on a regular basis. Day to day, we hear about senseless crimes that affect all walks of life. [...]

It’s official, “Payment for Peace” has run its course and life, as we know it, has returned to normal. Bickering, poking and any reason to assume battle positions has resumed. Am I considering another negotiation? It has crossed my mind but for now I think I will just stare longingly at my new count down [...]

When I took the picture of “The Cookie Stand” I was so excited about the concept that I couldn’t wait to get home and write about it. It was forefront in my mind for days and finally I found some time write. My first attempt was too long and the words wouldn’t flow. The next [...]

It’s a amazing how one, simple concept can restore your faith in mankind, even if it’s just for a moment. On our recent trip to Lasqueti Island we came across this roadside stand.

We’re really open with our kids. We’ve always tried to tell them that they can come to us for anything, talk to us about anything and we will do everything we can to get them the right information. As they get older, the thought of what lies ahead scares the hell out of me. I [...]

We all have neighbours. We like some of them, some we don’t know, some we simply co-exist with and others are a down right pain in the butt. This is pretty much how I sum up my view of the relationship between Canada and the U.S., depending on the issue in the forefront at the [...]

My husband is a geek. He loves technology, science and is very cutting edge. I get the “glazed over” expression many a time when he is talking to me but quite honestly, a lot of it is beyond the comprehension of my tunnel visioned, child focused, Mommy oriented brain. He is extremely frustrated because no [...]

I’ve been going on and on about how much fun we’ve been having with our newly acquired Wii. The only downside has been the effect on our poor, old, aching muscles. Out of curiosity I thought I would do a search on Wii Problems this morning and came across this site. If sore muscles are [...]
