Monday Mornings

The weekend that was: I escaped away from the city to open up the cabin and take in some denominational meetings.  The lake still is frozen and the cabin has a half foot of snow around it but it was nice to get away.  The best part was a walk where the only noise was [...]

The weekend that was: Wendy, Mark, Oliver and I drove to Spiritwood for Madge Bowes 90th birthday.  It was a great way to spend a Saturday.  Sunday was spent working although I did manage to go out for lunch with Dennis Camplin. Where I am at the moment: I had to come in to work [...]

The weekend that was: Really, really busy.  The Centre fed 1000 people in one sitting on Friday night, Saturday morning was the Santa Shuffle and I helped move a family to their first ever apartment in many, many years.  On Saturday afternoon we had our Christmas at the Reimers.  During that time Mark got the [...]

The weekend that was: I worked nights all weekend, moved a friend on Sunday, and did coffee house at the Centre on Sunday night with Wendy and Mark.  Continuing my streak of never knowing when coffee house was busy, I was sure it was going to be quiet and we had a packed house.  Wendy [...]

The weekend that was: It was both good and bad.  On one hand, it was great to celebrate being married to Wendy for 11 years on the other hand it was a weekend where the cities women shelters were full, no hotels were to be found and during our dinner I was getting phone calls [...]

The weekend that was: Thanksgiving.  A quick trip to the cabin to make sure it was locked up and since it is a long weekend, it is still ongoing. Where I am at the moment:  Writing from my favorite chair while holding Oliver.  On my to-do list this week:  I’d prefer not to think about [...]

The weekend that was: I worked nights all weekend so it wasn’t much of a social weekend. Where I am at the moment: In Saskatoon on a wet and soggy morning On my to-do list this week: Not a lot out of the ordinary.  It is Canadian Thanksgiving this weekend and we are heading up [...]

The weekend that was: I worked nights all weekend.  It wasn’t too bad but I was sick most of the weekend.  I feel better now but it was the weekend of the 24 hour flu. Where I am at the moment: In Saskatoon on a chilly Saskatoon morning.  I had to let the car warm [...]

The weekend that was: I worked nights all weekend.  Saturday we went out with the Pedersons.  Sunday I worked all night but had a meeting on Sunday afternoon that was too important to miss.  I honestly can’t remember Sunday night.  Sometime on the weekend I patched up my concrete front steps. Where I am at [...]
