Dance show weekend and I have less than 3 hours to finish a prop… Of course it will only take 30 mins so it’s still too soon for that ADHD adrenaline rush to kick in 🤣🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ 🐿️

I am Canadian. I am so confused that anybody would want to start down this path. How is it possible to believe half the “facts” are so different in their minds then I’ve read from credible sources. I’m checking out to enjoy the valleys first snow day… peace everyone ✌️ ❄️ Buy local ❄️

My 15 yr old son was invited to a birthday party sleepover. This is the first invite in years… I can’t remember the last one. I’m so ridiculously happy I could cry ☺️😅

Santa stopped by to with M a Happy 9th bday in Las Vegas Plaza 🎄🥳

💙📚 enjoying a beautiful (cloudy foggy, and cool, but at least it stopped raining?) Sunday morning, finishing listening to an audiobook on my front deck. Finishing dust after binging wool and shift. Already watched silo season one and most of season two. Wow, these books are awesome !

Gooood Morning, afternoon, evening or tomorrow to the world 🌎🌍🌏 It’s late Sunday morning here in beautiful BC. Kids getting ready for first day back to school tomorrow. That means meal prep and routine setting for me… what are you doing today?

Merry Christmas Eve! I can still call it that right? I’m not religious and that’s the name they give it when I get to close the office and stay home with pay. Sounds better than Happy Day before the Statutory holiday 1 of 2

Pray for a benevolent universe. We're gonna need it.

I can’t be alone in watching almost all my tv and movies on a cell phone or tablet rather than the wall-mounted television? It’s just so much easier to focus! 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤓

Up here in West Coast Canada, wanted to throw out a kudos to our government for stating that they aren’t going to spend BC taxpayer dollars on a federal issue that is technically a USA border problem. Sure, threaten us with tariffs and see what happens after we stop exporting our energy down south

Heading to my counselling appointment tonight. No idea what I’m going to talk about. When you’re upset, you can think of a million things but sometimes you just get into this mood where you feel numb and nothing‘s really important enough to care about complaining to a professional.

So I took this photo of slippers in the lost and found… Forgot to ask my daughter if they’re hers. But sometimes you just get that feeling. Daughter came home today with the slippers, telling me she found them in the lost and found 🤦🏻‍♀️

Love this!

When you’re feeling anxious, moody or even just that yucky tight feeling in your chest of lillease, it’s important to remember you need to calm the body first before you can calm the mind. Someone told me that recently and the more I take these deep breaths the more I agree it’s accurate.

My kids called me out tonight zfor calling myself cool in front of them. I had to explain to them I do that because at those particular moments, I realize I’m letting them get away with it things most parents wouldn’t… They said it was OK I call myself cool 😎🤓❤️

Feeling a little #wicked

Relatable 🦖🤓 Content Analysis: Funk85's writing is an eclectic mix of stream-of-consciousness banter and thoughtful observation. It's like a brisk walk through the park where you suddenly trip over a philosophical thought and go tumbling down a rabbit hole of relatable humor. blueskyroast.com

Wearing my favourite blue shirt and it got me thinking… Proud of my blue friends down in the south but up here in Canada, blue isn’t always a good thing. Our Conservative Party is blue and not my favorite group. I’m more of an orange girl myself (NDP), but have lots of friends in the red (liberals)

If I was an ambassador to USA, I would pull my neurodivergent card and ask for accommodations to avoid my PTS triggers related to dealing with rapists and unsafe people… I’d request that I’d be paired with someone who isn’t one, but it might be hard to find one these days 🤷🏻‍♀️

I wish other countries felt powerful enough to say no to terrible choices for ambassadors. France usually has such an amazing “no I’m better than you”attitude… I hope they pull this out and insist on dealing with someone who isn’t a POS as ambassador to their country.

As someone from the Vancouver area, I find it so hard to see the videos and pictures of the riots going on right now. But at least they are rioting for something better than losing the Stanley Cup in the playoffs.

Jumping back and forth between reading BS posts and watching sci-fi series…. Sometimes it’s hard to know which one I’m on

Birthday boy (9) wants to fly for his big day. Affordable choices are Edmonton or LasV It’s January so yes I’m taking my kid to Vegas.

Six decades later, Star Trek may still be the only franchise based on the ideas that diversity is strength, justice is the measure of civilization, bounty is to be shared, peace is worth the price, and all these things can be achieved. We need more shows that look ahead and find goodness.

Open Facebook, then closed it when I realized it was the same six ads and reels over and over… Jumped on Blue Sky instead 👋 I only used Twitter to follow traffic alerts when heading to the city so no idea how to use this app but welcome any advice 🤞

Hanging out with my beautiful girl. Good evening :-)

And now for my email to explode with Black Friday deals…. Thanksgiving was a month ago! I miss when I was a teen and we all made a big deal about Boxing Day instead

One of these days I'll make a good looking crust. Today is not one of those days but hot damn adding some bourbon and dark chocolate chips to the pecan pie really takes it to the next level. 🍜🍽️

Trying out my “warming zone” on the new oven 🍽️
