I had what many would call an idyllic childhood growing up on the family farm in southern Manitoba. Acres and acres to roam free and play. Aunts, uncles, cousins and good friends down the road. We knew everyone. And we trusted everyone. And that's the way it should be. If I ever have kids, I... Continue Reading → Year of Joy: December Better late than never! This pretty much sums me up. I'm late for almost everything, including writing my last Year of Joy post for 2016. But this time (and almost every time!), I have a good excuse. For the first eight days of January I was on vacation in Hawaii and then returned to work... Continue Reading → Year of Joy: November Looking back on November, it all seems a blur to me. It was a whirlwind month with lots of busyness at work. Once again, many things brought me joy but there are a few things that top the list. My parents 43rd wedding anniversary! In this day and age, it is rare to find couples... Continue Reading → Year of Joy: October 2016 is flying by. I can't believe we're down to two months remaining in the year. October was a challenging month for many in the Western Canadian farming community with endless wet and cool weather. Here's hoping the weather improves as we close out the year. Here's what brought me joy in October. Good friends... Continue Reading → Year of Joy: September The first month of Fall flew by. September is one of my favourite times of the year because it's harvest time on the Canadian Prairies. Some of the things that brought me joy this month revolved around harvest. Visiting friends on their farm near Calgary during their harvest - riding in the truck and combine, and...

The coffee giant is known for its oat fudge bars - I know many customers who are fans of this treat. So I decided to make my own version, and I think it turned out just as good,... Continue Reading → Embarking on a new adventure. Life is full of tough decisions. After 4.5 years working in marketing at a large global agriculture company, I recently made the decision to pursue another opportunity. The decision didn't come easy, but sometimes you have to take a risk and seize a new opportunity. So I'm excited to share that I will now be working with... Continue Reading → Year of Joy: August August is in the books, which means our short Prairie summer has come to a close. Many things brought me joy in the final month of summer. My brother's 40th birthday. I can't believe my oldest brother is now 40. Seems like just yesterday we were kids growing up on the farm. Making a pit stop... Continue Reading →

Ceathrú lá don sneachta atá ann agus mar sin níl aon leithscéal agam níos mó; tá an t-am agam anois chun scríobh i nGaeilge faoi an mhí a bhí agam an mhí seo caite. Thosaigh mé mí Feabhra ag smaoineamh ar trí rudaí: mo phost múinteoireachta a fhágáil; post nua in oifig scoile a thógáil... Continue Reading → Faoi bhrú, like. Tosóidh mo chúrsa scríofa Dé Satharn seo le Gaelchultúr agus caithfidh mé rá go bhfuil mé an-neirbhíseach anois. An bhfuil mé réidh chun an chúrsa seo a thosú? An ndearna mé dearmad ar mo chuid Gaeilge i rith na 10 mbliana gan é a úsáid? An ndéanfaidh mé a lán botúin sa rang? Cad má... Continue Reading → An rud is deacra… ... ná a bheith ag scríobh gan foclóir a úsáid. Aréir bhí mé ag scríobh i mo dhialann agus wow, bhí mé an-mall. An rud a chuireann as dom ná go bhfuil fios agam go bhfuil na freagraí agam... nó go raibh siad agam deich mbliaina ó shin - grr. Ar maidin chaith mé uair... Continue Reading → 9 rudaí a d’athraigh mé don Ghaeilge Nuair a rinne mé an cinneadh chun níos mó Gaeilge a labhairt, a úsáid agus a fheiceáil gach lá, d'athraigh mé cúpla rudaí i mo shaol. Seo liosta de na rudaí sin: Chuir mé mo Gmail ar fáil trí Ghaeilge Cé go bhfuil 'bosca isteach' fós greannmhar i mo cheann, táim an-dáiríre faoin athrú seo.... Continue Reading → Dhá seachtain fágtha Táim beagnach críochnaithe mo chúrsa Gaeilge ar Ranganna.com le Gaelchultúr. Táim ar Aonad 10: Siopadóireacht agus Cúrsaí Airgid de Gaeilge Gan Stró - Lower Intermediate Level. Aonad amháin eile agus beidh mé ar Tinneas, Tréithe agus Mothúcháin - yay. Bím i gcónaí ag iarraidh mo mhothúcháin a chur in iúl do gach éinne ar Twitter... Continue Reading → An bhliain a bhí 2017 Bhuel, thosaigh rudaí ag athrú ó mí Feabhra ar aghaidh... Bhog mé go Londain chun mo teastas Cambridge Delta* a bhaint amach D'éirigh liom pas a fháil sa Delta i mí Iúil Bhog mé go dtí lár na cathrach i mí Iúil comh maith Thosaigh mé mo chúrsa Gaeilge le Ranganna.com i mí na Samhna...
