Currently editing 35 minutes of video from our NYE family activities down to a watchable ~10m version which we then watch, along with the other 12 years of videos we’ve done which currently sits at almost 3 hours of videos?

I better stop posting and get back to editing.

The only downside to having a raclette supper, a NYE tradition around here thanks to my dad working in Germany for a year back in 2000, is now the whole house smells like fried food.


Happy 2025 y’all. 🎉


Go Canada at the World Junior Hockey Championships. Which reminds me: I used to have a friendly bet every year on this game with Christopher Schmitt. 😔 (I owe him a bottle of maple syrup and a bag of ketchup chips.)


Happy New Year’s Eve! 🎉

I can’t remember what day or time it is today. I’m sorry if I planned a meeting with anyone today I can assure you it’s not happening. 😕 😆

Was a great day to flood the rink. Still trying to get it flat flat, but it’s mostly flat and that’s good enough for how much ppl pay to skate here.

A backyard ice rink is surrounded by snow under a clear blue sky with the sun shining brightly.

The face of a puppy who’s just realized Christmas happens once a year, not every day.

Neville Dogbottom sits with his face on the couch looking sad.

Shovelled the rink in a tshirt and got a sweet haul of books. Merry Christmas ya’ll. 📚
