It always feels so damn cold this time of year! I blame it on the lack of feasible options of things to do in winter. Stupid Edmonton and the weather. Whoa, wait up a second timotheories! You told us weeks ago that there is lots to do in Edmonton in the winter because we are…
In what seems to be a week (or maybe weak) of nostalgia related thoughts, I decided to share more with you lovely readers and expand upon yesterday’s post. This is especially cool for the local Edmonton crowd, but I of course think it will be rather relevant for my larger group of loyal international readers too. Remember your first love? We’ve all…
In December of 2014, I wrote about a longstanding goal of mine and efforts I had made to set it up so I could eventually achieve it! That goal was The Watch List. I’ve referenced this goal a few times on this blog, because it’s a fun topic and seems a little silly, but mostly because it…
Happy Christmas Harry! Whoops, that’s not how I meant to start today’s post! Just kidding, who am I, The Grinch? I must be pretty grumpy that I can’t come up with some Christmas cheer and make the season just a bit lighter for you dear readers. As I mentioned in yesterday’s Wisdom Wednesday post, today…
Ah winter has finally arrived, and it looks like it won’t be leaving any time soon! I was nervous for a bit there. Thought we were going to witness another Super El Nino equivalent to the one we had back in 1997. That year we didn’t know what to do, when the snow simply would not stick…
Everyone has at least one long-standing friend. I count myself lucky to have many friends that I’ve known for a decade or longer, but having a life long friend is something special. While he and I have never really shared the exact same set of hobbies, and our political and spiritual views haven’t been known…
There are some events which can’t really be described properly with words alone. But you know them when you see them. And when you ‘experience’ them. I cannot believe it’s been this long since this phenomenon known as Ghost first graced our lives back in 1990. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1idoLQYjMI If you haven’t seen this movie before, you…
“I feel like I’m going to puke,” that’s what I kept repeating to myself over and over the morning after. I had told myself countless times that I would never go through this again. I told myself that I was going to change my lifestyle and become a different person. A different person, with different…
Have I mentioned how much I like Black Friday shopping to you guys and gals yet? I don’t think I have, but that’s what today’s post is all about. A way for you to prepare yourself in anticipation of one of the most wonderful days of the retail year. How timely of me, you say?…
I’m a pretty big fan of supporting local events and groups, as I hope you would know by now. But did you know that are key individuals in our communities who actually spend their hard earned “free” time, sharing the catalogue of current local events for us Edmontonians on a regular basis and a lot of…
