Episode 124 - Groceryumentary

Hey I'm on holidays!  Yes, I know, I was on sabbatical, but I still had work, just not teaching work.  OK, in the summer I wouldn't teach either and then there'd be emails I would ignore.  So maybe my month of holidays is not that different.

We had a power outage last night.  Our UPS works!

It was Civic Holiday weekend, the most generic of the holidays.

I'm great at everything.

I got alcoholic root beer!

Our friend Pat died just the other day, we dedicate this podcast to her and her family.  She meant a great deal to us, and was very close with Isabelle.

Episode 123 - A Little Later Than Usual

Isabelle has been grant writing and such, so we went shopping a little later than we normally do.

I really shouldn't be saying 'went' because i am typing this before we go.

I've been cycling a lot.  I'm also thinking of slowly restoring my old (30 year old) bike.  Yesterday Jon and I went on a 10 km ride (there and back) to the pet store and to Subway.  We had an interesting thing happen to us.  

It's crazy season in US politics, so perhaps that will come up.  Like I said, I really have no idea, we haven't recorded yet......

OK, so now we have recorded and I made a few good guesses there.  

Hey, Isabelle won second prize in an art show, for a cool thing she did on her phone!  You can see it in this post.

We're gonna eat fajitas and drink blender drinks tonight, as it is 33 degrees out, but, we still want to see Bill Clinton tonight.

Oh we got stopped for a bit by a train, which Jon said he would 'take down'.

Episode 122 - A Beautiful Day

So, we went shopping a day early as Isabelle's birthday is tomorrow, and, well, she hates shopping.  So it seemed to make sense to not have her do something she dislikes on her birthday.  Today is also the 12th anniversary of our arrival back here in Sault Ste. Marie from Corner Brook.

Isabelle has been visiting our friend Pat a lot.  You've probably heard her talk about that.

Good looking people do better in life, it's a thing.  Indeed, people probably base some of their vote on looks.  I don't think they do it on purpose but they do.  I talked a bit about honest signalling and looks and bird plumage and symmetry and beauty and man I felt like I was teaching.

I've been working on my upcoming courses and Isabelle will be soon too.

Everyone wish Isabelle a happy birthday.
