My yard looks like this, but it’s 5° today so it feels like spring!

This is the view to my left. She’s purring so loudly, but is so sleepy, it sounds a bit like a congested pigeon. I’m surprised she isn’t drooling. May we all be so comfy!

It got up to -2° for a bit this afternoon, and I was so excited that it was “warm” enough to dig a spot out of the snowbank for the recycling and garbage bins! I keep reminding myself that it’s only another month or so of this.

That’s enough. We can be done now, thanks!

Prepping all the flavours for tonight’s supper (to be added to a pile of veg in the slow cooker) and my house smells divine.

This is Busy. She will be 19 next month, and wants you to know that I do not give her enough treats and wet food for her liking. A travesty, to be sure.

Beta testing the new Flashes app. Looks like it crossposts automatically.

It appears that the new plants in my daughter’s aquarium came with some new friends as well.

Went and logged in to my Blogger account for the first time in twelve years, for funsies. Found a random influx in traffic from 2021-2023, and it’s got me curious about where it came from. Who? And why? Also, alternating between laughing at myself and cringing as I skimmed the posts.

I’m pretty sure Bodega Cats is my favourite account to follow.

Trudeau as a person? I think I would find him delightful, were we to meet as people! As our PM? He’s had long enough. I like him, and I feel like some good work has been done, but not enough. I want NDP next. We need to move this country away from this back and forth between red and blue.

I made the mistake of going to the mall this afternoon, on the same weekend as an American shopping holiday that has seeped up north. It was bananas!!

Loblaws made a staggering $156 million dollars more in profit in Q3 than they did last year while Canadians struggle to afford their groceries. Will you email your MP right now, and demand they implement an excess profits tax on mega-grocers like Loblaws? I did! leadnow.ca/campaigns/20... #CdnPoli

I’m working from my kitchen table this morning, so that I can watch the squirrels and blue jays clean up the bird seed I spilled while filling the feeders earlier.

Too much negativity in your day? Please enjoy this photo of Cutie, my son’s pet hamster. Look at those little whiskers! And the teeny paws!!

I need my feed to be waaaaay less U.S.-centric. As much as I am afraid of what’s going on down there, and how it will affect my country, I need to look away from the wreck. The rest of the world is interesting too!

Here is some of my work, for your eyeballs.

I went to Indigo with my youngest today, to spend a gift card he had received. I walked out without any books for myself in what can only be described as a stunning act of self control.
