Singin’ the Socioeconomic Blues

June 16, 2010 by Kath

There are some fabulous benefits to being an occasional teacher (AKA supply/substitute teacher). I get to pick and choose when and where I work, for one thing. I get to meet a whole new group of students every day and, guess what? Someone else has already done all the really hard work of planning … [Read more...]

Bedroom Blues

June 14, 2010 by Kath

Okay, here's the thing: I know kids will be kids and one of the things that most certainly means is that they will have messy bedrooms. I get that. And I'm not a total neat-freak or germ fanatic so I honestly don't mind a little bit of clutter or unmade beds or colonies of stuffed animals. It's just … [Read more...]

Mature Student Blues

June 9, 2010 by Kath

So I took this big French exam yesterday - the DELF (Diplôme d'Études en Langue Française). If I pass (I wrote the level B2 exam) I will be "officially" bilingual - I will be able to attend any French University, or get a job in France without having to write a French competency test. (Yeah, like … [Read more...]

We loved this car. LOVED. IT. Quirky, funky, eye-catching and fun, the Nissan cube also delivers a heck of a punch in performance, comfort and storage. And with an affordable sticker price and crazy-good fuel efficiency, this might just be one of my favourite cars yet.Model Tested: 2010 cube 1.8SKey … [Read more...]

Attention Hockey Families!

May 31, 2010 by Kath

So, we were supposed to go camping this past weekend, but when it started to snow on Thursday, we (wisely) re-thought our plans and booked in for a weekend at the Canmore Inn and Suites in the shadow of the Three Sisters in beautiful Canmore, Alberta.I tell ya: Canmore must be the world capital … [Read more...]

Yo! Party Poopers! Quit Raining on My Kids’ Parade!

May 20, 2010 by Kath

Okay, I gotta get it out. I'm sick of people who decide "not to lie" to their kids about things like Santa and the Tooth Fairy, but can't manage to get their kids to keep the secret from the children of the rest of us evil, child-deceiving liars.Three years ago, I was Christmas shopping with my … [Read more...]

Firsts

May 18, 2010 by Kath

When you lose a parent to illness, you have to endure a lot of things. You have to endure the certain knowledge that your mom (or dad; but I'm going to use just mom for the rest of the post) is dying, and there's nothing you can do about it. You have to endure the knowledge that they are in pain and … [Read more...]

This Running Thing is Actually Pretty Good

May 17, 2010 by Kath

Six weeks ago I started a Learn to Run clinic at The Running Room. I really didn't want to. But: I was going with a friend, so I stuck it out, even when every fibre of my being cried out, "why? Why are you doing this to me?" The first week was NOT fun but, as I told myself when it was over, I was … [Read more...]

Home is Where I Left My Heart…

May 12, 2010 by Kath

Shortly after I was first married, my husband and I moved from the GTA to Calgary. At the time it was a big and fun and exciting thing to do. We were close to the Rocky Mountains and we skied a lot. We enjoyed the smaller city that Calgary was at the time, and we found that our housing dollar went a … [Read more...]
