🤣 I'm not Catholic any longer, but I support this new Pope if he's causing such a pearl-clutching from 'the conservatives'.

I hope her recovery is easy and as quick as it can be.

Trying to focus on my tasks (work, feed myself and the cat) and enjoy the beautiful sunshine and blooming bulbs despite the dread lurking in the background.

Cancelled my account in February, even though I love many Prime shows. 🍁 here, and started watching more CBC Gem dramas like North of North and Sainte-Pierre.

That's so hard. Hope it's smooth sailing the rest of the way!

Salvatori's in Sarnia, Ontario (across the river from Port Huron, MI). They were a small, family-run Italian restaurant that made everything homemade and served it family-style. Such good pasta and sauces and desserts. They retired the business last year before I could get back for one more meal.

I'm on a waiting list to get the recording of ASR from my library. I own the series and am rereading it (it's one of my Sanctuary Moon series) currently, but really want to hear Kevin R. Free's narration.

I sometimes forgot that rabbits have such really long legs, as they are so often tucked down into the grass, munching on clover. One local bun skittered across the side road one evening and it took me a moment to realize it was a rabbit and not a strange-looking cat.

I got mine yesterday, and will go on the 18th to vote for the Liberal incumbent, Vance Badawey, in my riding. 🇨🇦

I try to walk the beach nearly every weekend despite the weather, just to get some calm. In the summer it's crazy busy with visitors, but it calms down by the evening so you can swim or chill with a book.

I love this show. I've been watching CBC Gem since I dumped Prime, and am 3/4 of the way through SP. I love it so far!

Gotta love a good Grandpa. I had 2 grands and one great-grandpa; they all taught me so much, and I miss them, but am grateful for the memories.

Insects are a valid source of protein, especially in other cultures/parts of the world. At University of Guelph (my university), the Food Science Dept was experimenting with edible insects as protein additives. Mealworm oatmeal cookies and cricket popcorn are great. What's the problem?

I read her letter every morning before work!
