For a guy who doesn’t overly enjoy gardening, and isn’t very good at it, I seem to have dedicated a fair amount of time to it this weekend. It will be worth it though in the end. The waste resource management group here was giving away free compost yesterday. We took advantage and I wentContinue reading “Gardening”

Mother’s Day
Mother’s Day always reminds me of what I know everyday, I have three of the most amazing mothers in my life. My Mother in Law Linda. One of the most giving and selfless people I know. Always willing to do what ever she can to help out. Having her so close and everything she doesContinue reading “Mother’s Day”
Worst Weightloss Plan Ever
Although I’m sure it is highly effective, I would not recommend this weightloss technique to anyone. For the past three days I’ve been pretty much lying in bed feeling like garbage. Nothing I eat or drink stays with me for very long. It’s a horrible feeling. It’s the weekend and pretty nice weather but IContinue reading “Worst Weightloss Plan Ever”
Winter to Spring Time Lapse
Since February 16th I’ve had a web cam setup in my office window looking out over my backyard. It’s set to capture an image every half hour when it is light out. The camera is not great so the quality isn’t very good but it’s still pretty cool watching the snow disappear and the grassContinue reading “Winter to Spring Time Lapse”
Great Grandmothers Peony
Tuesday night I finally did something I’ve been wanting to do for a while. Gardening and plants are not anywhere near my specialty, nor do I even particularly enjoy it much but I planted a new plan in the flower bed I dug the other day, and I am excited about it. It’s really theContinue reading “Great Grandmothers Peony”
Love my car
To me cars are a necessity. If I lived in a big city with great public transportation I would gladly give up my vehicles, buy a good bike and make my way around that way. However living in rural Nova Scotia with four kids having a car, and in our case two, is pretty muchContinue reading “Love my car”
Spring day and not so naked gardening
It felt like spring yesterday! It was about 12 degrees Celsius and sunny. Seeing as I procrastinated for way to long doing our taxes again this year I didn’t get to enjoy nearly as much of the day as I would of liked. For the morning and part of the afternoon I spent my dayContinue reading “Spring day and not so naked gardening”
More Reading
This past year as likely been the best year I’ve had in a long time for reading. By reading I mean actual books that aren’t a school text book or something technical like learning JavaScript. It’s not that I don’t enjoy reading or think it is important because I do both. After a recent teamContinue reading “More Reading”
Son of Krypton
For sometime I’ve been semi following along local artist James White. If you’re not familiar with him you should be. He was recently featured with Lynda.com celebrating 25 years of Photoshop. Seeing his incredible talent I knew from early on that I wanted to have at least one piece of his work eventually. I’ve tried to catch aContinue reading “Son of Krypton”
Unsure of my own beliefs
Not sure how to approach this topic. It has been something that has been rattling around in my head for quite a while now. Hopefully this will be coherent, but it will basically be a brain dump of my thoughts. This is something I’ve not talked to anyone about so I’m really just trying toContinue reading “Unsure of my own beliefs”
