There's a saying "Lightning never strikes the same place twice." It's a nice saying but it's categorically untrue. It's meant to inspire us to seize opportunities because we might not have them ever again. That's pretty much a false notion as well. It actually strikes the same tall object or even open area again all... Continue Reading →
Ultimately conspiracies come from the fact that historically some information was suppressed or maybe unknown. I’m not a conspiracy believer as a whole but for a time I did watch a few of those ‘inside job’ films. They did make me question stuff too for a time, so I see how people do go down...

No matter your sport the most often neglected part of training is recovery. But how does one recover exactly? What counts? Is it just sitting on your butt crushing candy all day. Well that works but not everybody can swing that kind of down time. You might still have to work and that might be... Continue Reading →
Wow, it's been a busy weird summer right? Now it's just past the middle of August and it seems like summer is coming to a close. We have a few projects coming to an end at the moment a wharf, last winter's big reno, 5 weekends of a chimney a weekend and well a little... Continue Reading →
We are all so pampered these days and we don’t even realize it. I’m not talking about wearables and apps but more everyday and mundane stuff. Since I’m mostly a runner I’ll probably default to that but it pretty much applies to everyone, especially those that workout in the great outdoors. There are some crazy... Continue Reading →
No two people are exactly alike and that’s sort of what keeps the world interesting. But that also means we don’t necessarily have the same natural ability to do any task. So depending on what activity you’re trying for the first time it may go great or suck balls. It’s easy to ignore a weakness... Continue Reading →
Even for us we've been going all out and yet still find ourselves falling behind lately. It's been 7 days a week and at the very minimum 12 hours a day now for about a month. Mostly because it hasn't rained in about that long and the to do list is getting longer no matter... Continue Reading →
Rough estimate time, it’s pretty wide knowledge that it costs about $150 a square foot to build a house. However that’s not really true any more. Beyond some other complicating factors like slopes and floorpan most of that comes down to finish grade inflation. What was standard for a home 20 years ago just isn’t... Continue Reading →
This post isn’t about me, my thoughts or my feelings but that’s still where we’re going to start today. I hang out in women’s Facebook running groups for some of my time. I like to share my insights there (and posts) and it gives me ideas for posts from time to time like this one... Continue Reading →
My life has never, ever been so boring and unexciting but you know what this week I realized how much I appreciate that by doing something pretty freakin' stupid. I picked this picture because is shows an old, neglected, and dangerous wharf in the foreground and a boring old reliable one in the background that's... Continue Reading →
