What’s Love got to do with it
Sadly, Tina Turner was a little bit right… I think we have miscues about love. Normally I write about things that amuse me but today for some reason I was amused by something I’ve heard over the years a dozen times. “I don’t know if I love her anymore” “I don’t know if I love him anymore” It’s such a dangerous thing to say because … Continue reading What’s Love got to do with it
Hindsight is 2020?
I wish hindsight was 2020, but even that is pretty rare. In thinking of my life I started to wonder why I’m always watching my back trail to figure out why I thought the way I did last year or did the things I did. Hindsight is 2020 they say, but then I had a funny thought: “Who cares how well you can see the … Continue reading Hindsight is 2020?
Two Times the Fun
If one is fun, two is better. This is how I live my life. If I have a cold and need Vitamin C, I go straight to attempting to eat ten of them. I don’t actually eat ten of them because Erin stops me. Some people have a gift of walking in right at the moment I’m getting ready to pull the trigger on something … Continue reading Two Times the Fun
Christmas Eve
I love Christmas. Some things I don’t enjoy about holidays are…. Actually I have to reframe things I don’t like into things I “GET TO DO” because once I make up my mind I don’t like something that’s the end of that. The hatred of mushrooms, olives, and sweet potatoes were decisions I made when I was small that only took about two decades to … Continue reading Christmas Eve
Hello Footprints and Magic Mountain
Running a daycare and/ or an elementary school would be my version of a nightmare. The only thing worse might be running a Jr High School… Our new Venue partners in Airdrie are Footprints Academy and Magic Mountain in Kings Heights and they’re amazing. I was walking through the spaces with one of the owners who said “I’m an engineer who’s now running a daycare”. … Continue reading Hello Footprints and Magic Mountain
Farewell Bert Church Theatre
I was nostalgic walking through the space where we’ve been for the first three years of our journey as Venue Church last Sunday. I recounted how difficult it was to do a startup of any sort in a time of economic downturn, and how fortunate we are that we not only built a great community of people moving together for the good of our city, … Continue reading Farewell Bert Church Theatre
How Men Shop at Christmas
Now you might be a man who’s on the ball and thoughtful and doesn’t mess up Christmas present buying like the rest of us. Firstly we’re proud of you. Secondly we hate you a little for making the rest of us look bad. I normally start thinking about buying Christmas presents about a week out. I have no idea why. Every year I watch my … Continue reading How Men Shop at Christmas
