My daughter LOVES my Vespa. I took her for a little spin up and down our driveway and she enjoyed every second.
We borrowed (actually Elina refused to take it off) Stella’s fairy outfit and she danced around like a little fairy princes – up and down the driveway:
At the end of this day, [...]
Its cooled off a bit in Toronto – down to a bone-chilling 22c – What a hoot when people think that this is cool. I mean it is compared to our usual 30c+ with up to 40c+ with humidex. I love it when its this temperature. Nothing is sticky. You can see [...]
I attended a symposium at UofT (sponsored by the Faculty of Social work and OISE) where in attendance was one of Canada’s former Prime Ministers – Paul Martin. He did of his spiel on the failed Kelowna accord which no longer exists and the government (at all levels failed to negotiate land claim). [...]
This weekend Connor, Elina and Dean finished their session of Sportball with a graduation badge. Elina looks forward to Sportball on Saturday mornings….”Only 2 more sleeps till Sportball”. Here are the 3 Musketeers!
We were invited yesterday to Alaina’s Nonie’s (grandmother) but with the coolish wind, we decided to leave it till today, and it was a good thing. Today was beautiful.
The girls loved it! There were a few rules, with so many stairs in her 60′ boat it got a little tricky to keep track of [...]

I do not get the day off like most Aboriginal organizations do today. There will be many activities in many communities and cities across Canada.
We will have a nice BBQ on this coolish [...]
So today, I look out over my cubeville at work to see the darkened clouds. I check the Weathernetwork’s website to see – Severe Thunder Storm Watch – GTA. I inform someone at work that I’d be leaving, get in and drive. Its muggy but still ok. 5 blocks east, [...]
Miss Alyssa is certainly growing. I like her little muklucks and her dress (Elina’s hand-me-downs)
Today started off with the following wishs from Herman. To have his breakfast at home, to go for coffee, a walk at the Brickworks. We called Norway to wish Pappi a Happy Father’s Day (surprised as usual as Norwegians celebrate Father’s Day at a different time of the year). Then, he had to go [...]
