A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to sit in on a class to learn how to use OneNote. I don’t know if it’s obvious (she says sarcastically), but I am not always excited or even willing to learn anything new when it comes to computers. Sean has been talking about how much I …

  It’s hockey season again! Do you want to know how I knew that? Well, obviously there’s been a lot of hype about the new NHL season starting up. Also, for Father’s Day the kids and I bought Sean a Budweiser red goal light. You can connect it to your Wi-Fi, pick your favourite team …

Where were you 10 years ago? In September 2003, Sean and I had just made the long journey back to Canada after living in Bermuda for 5 years. We had a 1 ½ year old baby and one on the way. About a week before we moved back here, there was a huge hurricane (Floyd …
