When the crap hits the fan.

When the crap hits the fan.

Somedays…all you can do is duck. Right? It is May. We are b.u.s.y. at work, which is good, and we like it…but by the end of May, you kind of feel like you got ran over by a truck. A really big truck. You start to speak in tongues and people start to wonder if [...]

Thursday night photo shoot…

Thursday night photo shoot…

I have a funny story to tell, seriously I do. But I am just too tired to be funny. I just did six days straight. It’s spring. I work in a kick ass garden centre. Nuff said. So here I sit watching the finale of American Idol. I am dealing with all the bizarre shit they are playing because [...]

It’s Pinterest time…

Mother’s Day surprises…

Well as usual, I am late. Late in saying Happy Mother’s day to all the fabulous Mom’s out there. I hope your day was relaxing and you got spoiled rotten. Like I did. I just want to say right now, that I have the most fantastic children on the planet. I do, none of you [...]

Really people…really???

Really people…really???

Every day, humanity either amuses me or scares the shit out of me. Some days…both. Throw politics into the pot and shit is going to fly right? We are having an election here on Tuesday. It is a provincial election for the Premier of British Columbia. Now let me just say right here and now, [...]

When Blondie doesn’t even begin to describe me…

When Blondie doesn’t even begin to describe me…

Have you ever had that day? You know the one I am talking about right? The one when you wonder how the hell you can actually make it through the day, or the week for that matter. Welcome to me. I have been trying to get my paperwork all done to get funding to go [...]

Target…I thought you were the one.

Target…I thought you were the one.

Really, I did. I had unreasonably high hopes that you would be the box store that would change my mind about box stores. I was wrong. You let me down, just like all the others have. It looked impressive from the outside, with your big red balls everywhere and your fancy new face lift, but when [...]

Spring be damned…

Spring be damned…

Today on the Island…we bypassed spring. It was 29° at 5pm tonight as I was leaving work. Holy hell in a handbasket…talk about crazy spring weather. Last year I was wearing my long johns well into June. This year, I am being a daredevil and already have some of my annual flowers outside. WHAT??? I [...]

It’s not me, it’s you. Totally.

It’s not me, it’s you. Totally.

I am breaking up with you. I know that it sucks. I know that reading it in a blog post sucks worse. But that is the way it is going to be. I have been faithful for years. I have tagged along behind you, cheering you on when no one else had any faith in [...]

Who writes this crap??

Who writes this crap??

And how do we do them in and take their jobs. Or at least give the jobs to someone, anyone with a half a brain. I am talking about commercials. I mean why can’t people write a decent bloody commercial. It can’t be that hard. Can it? I am telling you this,  the stupid Kraft [...]

Bee Happy…

The bees were busy, way up in the woods… At least this one was… My favorite woodhunting snack… This old bridge is pretty cool… The ferns are wakin’ up!! And the buds are opening everywhere… I FINALLY got a picture of a bear, unfortunately it was through the windshield of the damn truck… It was [...]

A day of unfortunate events…

A day of unfortunate events…

It was a pretty good day, really. It is a full moon though, and with me, that means stuff is gonna happen. I wasn’t disappointed. Here is how the day went… I got the wrong straw…of course. Bruce fixed it. Sort of… The clouds were just weird on the drive home from Naniamo, did I [...]
