Tomorrow is Easter. It feels like it’s been a fast 40 days. I missed my target by a whole 7 days which is disappointing in one way, but in another way, I feel really glad. I just went back to see how long it had taken me to complete the previous 33 posts prior to […]
Continue reading →Good Friday is coming to an end, and I have to admit that Good Friday is one of my favourite days of the year. It has been a good Good Friday. The weather was remarkable and it was a day to take a breath after a very very busy week. I started this week looking […]
Continue reading →I just missed two days in a row. I actually have two unfinished posts in my drafts folder, one titled Lent Day 35, and another Lent Day 36. Now I’ve started Lent Day 37. I’m going to finish this one. The past two days were unusually full. I’ve recently become a member of the Board […]

Continue reading →I’m having a little difficulty settling on something to write about today. I find myself thinking about Syria, but I don’t really want to write about that. One of the byproducts of following the Trump administration is that I get caught up on a lot of other current events as they happen, and I saw […]

Continue reading →Following up from yesterday’s post, I had this really great moment at the passport office today. I was dropping applications for two of my kids and my wife. It’s easy enough for me to bike down from work over lunch, so it’s a good job for me. So I got up to the “triage” window […]
Continue reading →Today was an absolutely gorgeous day…and I spent it mostly inside. We got the kids out to the park for a brief moment which was lovely. It was the kind of day that would have been a scorcher in July, but in March lets you stand in a warm breeze in just a sweater and […]
