πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ Kindness, love, and nature. I find solace in the forest, listening to the trees sing. When I can't go there, I crochet. 🧢

I repotted 13 pine trees that I planted in the spring of '24. I picked up some pinecones in the forest and planted the seeds they held. 13 are surviving and thriving after a winter spent outdoors

As I was walking through the yard today, I came upon this beautiful tulip in bloom. It made for a pretty picture.

ASD–W Bus Route 265, serving Cuffman Street Elementary, Nashwaaksis Middle and Leo Hayes High Schools will be running 2 hours LATE this morning due to a shortage of buses. #asdwalerts

Headed to Labrador to hang with my mom, a working vacation of sorts. Make time to spend with those you love before you're left wishing you had. My mom is 90 and active, but I will not take for granted the time we have left to spend together. I'm looking forward to the next two weeks with her. πŸ’• ✈️

Brrrr, the wind still has a bite to it. +1Β°C and clear skies tonight. πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦

Mother Nature is putting on a fashion show today in NB. She sure is pretty. πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦

πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ Say it loud and proud!

It was a great weekend for snowshoeing. Lots of fresh snow, great temperatures, and awesome company! πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦β„οΈ

Another challenge completed. First pair of pants I've crocheted. This was a fun, freestyle project. 🧢

What's on your hook this chilly Thursday? 🧢

A beauty of a day spent outside. πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦

The danger posed by misinformation persists, but the political landscape has shifted. "An open letter to Mark Zuckerberg from the world’s fact-checkers, nine years later" www.poynter.org/ifcn/2025/an...

A Chevron blanket I began on Christmas Eve, should be completed by next Christmas. πŸ˜† The starting row is 322 chains, 11 peaks, working in single crochet, back loop only. The colours show different on each side. 🧢

Treasures found while hiking through an old farm field. A wagon wheel, an old barrell, and what appears to be the remnants of an old wringer washer. The stories these items could tell, I'm sure, are many.

πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ Canadian schools should start introducing courses such as this. Teach young people how to source the truth and decipher the lies.

Two blankets finished and headed to Labrador with me in December. I love the vibrant colours of the flower power blanket; it makes my heart smile. While the yellow one may not be as bright, that yarn!! It's so warm and soft that I want to snuggle under it myself. Happy crocheting! 🧢
