Thrilled Brian White has extended his contract with the Caps! (Now we just need the team to stay in Vancouver, please.) #VWFC

All morning I have believed it is Wednesday. It is not.

Look at this photo of me from May 2007. I’m going to try and bring some of the serene confidence I had the moment of this photo (taken from the top of Haleakala at sunrise) back into my life.

Watching the Galaxy-San Diego game with the Spanish commentary to practice my Spanish comprehension. More fun than duolingo! And… can San Diego make history here?! #MLS

I made a bunch of dish cloths out of the not-white thread. Then I took the worse-for-wear white thread and crocheted a round bathroom organizer, tight tension single crochet in the round. The thread was old and stained so I am now attempting to dye it using tea.

Jayden Nelson is exciting to watch, huh? Fantastic in this game! #VWFC

Yes, all of this was under snow a week ago. But there are signs of spring all over my neighbourhood today. #WhatISeeOnMyWalks

Dad Joke of the Day: I've seen 'ten' spelled out in Spanish plenty of times, but I've only ever seen 'eleven' spelled once. #DJotD #WorksBetterIfYouKnowSpanish

Much needed down time coffee with a friend this morning.

Today: soccer-mom-ing. I am no longer the team manager (because dealing with some of these parents is exhausting) but I still show up pitch-side and take photos and video. Off to the suburbs again today.

Happy Hot Fuzz day to all who celebrate

Dinner tonight: ham/mushroom/cheese crepes. Have romaine wot needs using, so caesar salad, using up also some roasted garlic confit and sourdough ciabatta. Then sweet crepes with leftover homemade salted caramel sauce for dessert. And that's this week in using up the stuff in my fridge. 🍽️🍜

Please stop referring to annexation of Canada. It would be a fucking INVASION OF A SOVEREIGN NATION you ghouls.

Up at 5am making cheesecake for a birthday celebration in the office today. I’ve never made it the morning of, fingers crossed it has time to chill and set properly. 🍜🍽️

Kid got to play the last 10 minutes of the game. It was SO GOOD to see him back on the pitch, I can’t even.

Today is Flag Day in Canada apparently? While I’m generally made uncomfortable by flag-waving nationalism, does this mean we can claim the flag back from the convoy dipshits?

Today: Kid may or may not have a soccer game in the burbs, it’s currently snowing at the field they’re supposed to play on. Then a ferry to Victoria to visit with revered elders and my sister who is visiting the Coast from the Prairie. But first, caffeine.

I tapped on “Look up landmark” on two different photos of views from my balcony. One photo’s result said Johannesburg, the other said São Paulo. Which are both on different continents from where the photos were taken, so yeah. Not even a little bit reliable.
