I think with this story, I’m about to sound like someone who just crawled out from under a very large rock, or a person who acts older than their actual age. Oh well, here goes, in the hopes that it might help someone else. I have said before that I hate picking out greeting cards …

There’s No Place But Home For The Holidays
Welcome to our new lockdown, Ontario. Because of this occasion, I updated an old Christmas favourite with words for the present circumstances. In case you don’t know the song… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBc94tXCkLM Oh, there’s no place but home for the holidays We’re all locked down, there’s nowhere you can roam. Take your Christmas online, there’s a million …

An Appropriate Song for This Christmas
I have mentioned Mom’s favourite Roger Whittaker Christmas album before in the context of making fun of the stupid song on it. But there’s another song that’s on that album that’s been going through my head ever since it became apparent that we were staying here for Christmas. Christmas is here again. Stand up and …
Your Pickle Is…Yodelling?
A couple of years ago, I bought Brad one of these Yodelling Pickles at the Christkindl market. I got it because I thought the idea was freaking hilarious and I hoped he’d get a kick out of it. I’m glad I didn’t buy it for the tradition of it because I would have been a …
A Funny Christmas Songs Playlist? Yes Please!

Sweet Dreams Are Not Made of Coronavirus
As this stupid virus drags on, I’m happy I’m not having as many dreams about it as I did at the beginning. But I still have had a couple wacky ones so I thought I would write them down. The first one was the longest and most drawn out. I had it a few months …
Some Local Deliciousness
I can’t believe I’m about to post a picture of food. But I think this is a special occasion! Like I said in my post about getting Christmas gifts, I was doing my best to seek out local businesses that I would happen to hear about. I even went and looked up local businesses I’d …
Santa Claus Can Come Through Your Town
I had a good laugh when I saw this news story about Santa being deemed an essential worker. How very smart of everyone. I think if we were kids in the pandemic, we would have been all worried that Santa couldn’t come during the lockdown. Heck, if we were going to go to Grandma’s on …
It’s No Secret. You’ve Got Coronavirus!
Remember when I had that dream about sweating Coronavirus? Well, we might, and dogs might be able to smell it. In this new study, researchers based in France and Lebanon took sweat samples from the underarms of a total of 177 patients from four hospitals in Paris and one in Beirut — 95 had tested …
