    On the Day Before the Day Before Christmas

    Just popping in to share this seasonal photo of our girl, Molly, share some random stuff, and wish you a Merry Christmas. I’m finding it difficult to believe tomorrow is Christmas Eve. There’s not a flake of snow in sight or in the foreseeable forecast. What a difference from last year at this time! (This…

    Friday’s Fave Five (or Six) – December 22

    It’s another blue sky sunny day here in Moose Jaw as we inch closer to Christmas and wind up the last days of 2023. I feel confident (and surprised) to say that we’ll be enjoying a green Christmas this year. I can’t help but wonder what January will bring. We need moisture so part of…

    Friday’s Fave Five – October 27

    This week has passed at a comfortable pace. It’s a relief after a month of feeling like I had too many commitments. Looking back at a few things I’m grateful for this week with a Friday’s Fave Five post. It’s been two months since we brought Miss Molly home, but it feels like she’s been…

    It’s Snowing

    “Oh, hello!” My first glance out of the window in my office reveals feather-like flakes falling from the sky and a world that is, once again, white. Snow is different here than it was in B.C. It truly is like feathers and, with the addition of prairie wind, drifts are created that look like sculptured…
