Most of the time technology and I get along really well. Much of my time is spent working with technology and helping others use it. That’s the way I like it, me being the one to figure something out and help someone else use it. When it goes the other way and technology doesn’t workContinue reading “Technology Woes”

Jen has Started Blogging
Over the years I’ve tried a few times to get Jen to start blogging. Maybe if I had ever kept it up for a solid amount of time myself she would have been more inclined to start. Maybe this time I’ve kept with it long enough that she’s giving it a shot. She’s still workingContinue reading “Jen has Started Blogging”
Pumpkin Planting and Picking
Back in the beginning of June we made, what has become our annual trip to Ross Farm Museum to take part in the Pumpkin planting weekend. It’s a great event where you can go and plant your own pumpkin seed in their fields. They put a large number of stakes in the ground in rowsContinue reading “Pumpkin Planting and Picking”
Photo Bloopers
The other day I was trying to take a picture of Jen and Noah after his birthday party. It turned into a bit of a hilarious disaster and I just kept taking pictures as it happened. The two of them were falling all over the place and laughing. Caile was trying to jump in andContinue reading “Photo Bloopers”

This week however I gave in many more times on my eating and snacking. ThenContinue reading “Week Five Summary”

Today is the first of three of my kids birthdays that fall in September. Noah, my youngest, turns six today! He’ll have his actual birthday party with friends this weekend, but there is only a half day of school today so he’ll also have lots of friends here after school to celebrate and have cakeContinue reading “Happy Birthday Noah”
First Halifax WordPress Meetup
Tonight I attended my first ever WordPress meetup. When I found out that Alison and Tara were organizing a meetup in Halifax I was very excited. Seeing co-workers going to meetups and WordCamps talking with others who are either passionate about, or wanting to know more and learn about WordPress had me a bit envious.Continue reading “First Halifax WordPress Meetup”
Thoughts on Fatherhood
Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about families, and in particular Fathers. Previously I wrote about my own Father, I never really had a role model around except for some old memories and stories about things I specifically would not do as a Father myself. Having just finished Scott Berkun’s book The Ghost of MyContinue reading “Thoughts on Fatherhood”
Change of Plans
Today Jen had a rare day off during the week. When we found out about this we decided to take advantage and I made arrangements to be off work today and work another day instead. Our plan was to hike Cape Split for the first time together. Jen has never made the hike before andContinue reading “Change of Plans”
