Unfortunately, I think you're right.
As a dual citizen, I am very concerned

The Gateway did an excellent job covering this and were THE FIRST paper in the entire province to cover what the budget means for PSIs.

Good suggestion.
I transferred my files via the OneDrive app, I believe, and it was painfully slow. (University got rid of their OneDrive storage, so I had to move my OneNote data or lose 6 years of notes.)

Recipe please. I'm not sure I match your kitchen goddess prowess, though!

I'm starting to realize... It's always sugars.

Don't get me started on trying to figure out where the actual data is for OneNote. Everything is a freaking shortcut on OneDrive.

I've heard good things about lactaid pills from friends who are lactose intolerant and refuse to quit dairy altogether.

Excellent reminder. I have certainly been guilty of not using things before they expire in the past.

OK, that is just smart. I'm stealing that idea

And the current situation is solvable: pay EAs what they deserve!
It's infuriating that EAs in EPSB haven't had a raise in 10 years, but the MLAs just voted themselves at 2.5% raise. (More than the EAs have been offered, I might add.)

The colours are so pretty. Just bought the e-book version! Looking forward to reading it.

These are amazing! I wish I felt confident enough in my sewing *and* (importantly) had an embroidery machine.

My current favourite is the Striped Pyjama Squid/Cuttlefish. Adorable! (picture from: critter.science/the-adorable...)

Here's a picture of our dog-like beardie, Vandemeer. He's the one in the front.
Norman is in the back, and he was our first dragon.
Note that they are separated by a glass barrier. We didn't house 2 male dragons together!

We adopted an older dragon from spouse's BFF. This guy hadn't been socialized the best, but once with us he THRIVED. When I would come home from work/school, he would run around the cage until I came to visit and snuggle with him. And he only did it with me, not with spouse. I miss that guy.

Who's a big, scary dragon? Marty is. Yes, he is! (I used to tell one of our beardies this all the time, then he would calm down and let me snuggle.)

I think Clone Wars helps, but the prequels shouldn't need 7 seasons of another show to improve them.
comment in response to

I like the Clone Wars quite a but, but it's very annoying that the series doesn't flow chronologically.

It's essentially the first 3 episodes of season 1 of Clone Wars. A couple of key characters are introduced.

I think our Sasha looks a bit like your Malley

Here's Sacha-bear looking cozy under her blankie after eating too much snow. Blankie was made by spouse's grandmother. I think she'd appreciate Sasha having claimed it.

Nope, that's me!

I feel there are probably a few Clone Wars episodes that you can probably skip, too. For example, season 5, episodes 10-13.

I feel the same way about Obi-wan's and Anakin's duel on Mustafa in Revenge of the Sith. No stakes. We know who's going to win. Beautiful choreography, though.

Excellent suggestion. I might need to try something similar myself.

Gladly... unless there are walnuts or garlic (allergies).

I have a notebook in which I do the same.
I had an especially confusing (for me) shawl pattern recently - 1 one half increased by 2 stitches and the other half increased by 3 every row.
The work was turned at each row, so it evened itself out, but it broke my brain the first few times I started.

Thanks... I don't always see the "threads" here. Good reminder for me to pay more attention. I deleted my previous post.

Beautiful. Very even stitches. How did you like the bamboo hook? I have a rosewood Tunisian hook that I love!

Not ideal, for sure. Does your large oven have a proofing setting? I stumbled upon mine years after we bought our current house.
comment in response to

We have an old drafty house. The proofing option on our oven has been a game changer for us. I hope that's the case for you too!

Hope you're feeling better!
Here's a picture not from last weekend, but our previous cold snap. Our girls are older (13 and ~11), so they feel the cold these days. We got them cute sweaters for winter solstice this year.

Must be broken. There's only supposed to be spools of thread in there.

I'm loathe to go a clinic and request antibiotics because, as you say, resistance is real. *But* when my Dr recommends them? You better believe I'm taking the full course and following up if I'm not better afterwards.
Hope you've turned a corner, friend.
