Holy moly! Things are moving at a fast pace lately. It seems like only yesterday I started teaching again after many years; and that it didn't seem all that long ago that Isaac was using his bedroom wall (the one adjacent to my room) as a drum. The children are growing faster than I ever … Continue reading Lightspeed and Heartbreak

Wieners and Sausages
What do you do, when your dog eats not one, not two, but ten raw moose sausages? Oh yes, coming in at a whopping nine pounds, plus two pounds of moose meat... meet Asher, my miniature Dachshund. (I love the picture of my wife and Asher, on our wedding day). Sitting in my lap now … Continue reading Wieners and Sausages
The Difference Of 150 Feet
Photo by Ritche Perez on Pexels.com What a difference 150 feet can make. Sitting on a bench, overlooking a duck pond across from the Johnson Geo Centre in St. John's, I began to reflect on this fact. About 150 feet to my left, lies another wooden bench that I usually sit on during my lunch … Continue reading The Difference Of 150 Feet
Blog Challenge: Railene’s Request
"Hey, hey, we're the Monkees..." That song accurately describes what our children were like nearing the end of our COVID isolation period - an army of monkey extras in Planet of the Apes. It also describes what our house was like - a jungle. Wild. Crazy, and not a great place for a vacation. May … Continue reading Blog Challenge: Railene’s Request
Underserved Mercy
I awake to see the grey sky, the dark clouds covering, and the reminder of yesterday. All I can do is ask, “Why?” The emptiness inside that comes with defeat, the feeling of failure, and fear. All I can do is ask, “Why?” As tears roll down my face, and my heart yearns for change, … Continue reading Underserved Mercy
A Christmas Without Fear
I won’t keep you long today, as we all know the busyness of the Christmas season and…only one more sleep to Christmas!!!

Holy moly! Talk about distractions these past few weeks. I’ve been finding myself seeping away into an abyss of ‘things’: TV, Video Games, iPhone, Facebook- you name it! It’s so strange that the timing for these distractions seemed to coincide with my wife and I becoming Youth Leaders at our local church. Go figure. Whenever … Continue reading Watch Out For The Sirens: How Our Technology Might Not Be Helping Us
A Remembrance Day Tribute
Land. Sea. Air. Theatres of war where young men and women served and for many gave the ultimate sacrifice. Whether on the rocky beaches of Dieppe or the beautiful sand of Juno Beach; whether fighting fierce waves on the dark ominous waters of the North Atlantic; whether flying through the dull grey skies over Britain…all … Continue reading A Remembrance Day Tribute
Welcome back…
“Welcome back...” Drip, Drip, drip, drip. Wipe, Wipe, wipe, wipe. “Thank you, have a great day.” Cough, Cough, cough, sneeze. Whine, Whine, whine, cry. “Take this, it will make you feel better.” Slurp, Slurp, slurp, slurp. Wind howling, rain pouring, darkness all around. “Waaaahhhhhh.” A little voice sounds in the night. “Which one is that?” … Continue reading Welcome back…
