The Weather watcher says you can forget about seeing the full moon tonight. #Ottweather #OnStorm #Winter Let's hunker down and stay cozy. #Gratitude

I had a chilly sense of nostalgia while running errands after my Rotary club meeting today. I came upon the skeleton of a beloved community landmark against the winter sky. Do you miss your old DQ? Was it a summer evening treat for your family too?

It has been an enjoyable #Carurday. How about yours?

Victorious. I finished reading this overdue Library book after breakfast, trudged outdoors to return it directly to the library staff so they could process it for the waiting list. It's very good, very detailed. Then I bought a heating pad for the Cat and walked home in the blowing snow. ❄️🐈📖 🇨🇦

I preferred seeing and hearing President Joe over the Orange Menace, winner takes all attention seeking baby. I am avoiding the news and news feeds for the next few days. I am proud of Canadian politicians and activists who are standing up to the illogical capitalist bully tactics.

Enjoy these colourful screens with carefree tropical fish. Thanks to the public library's used bling sale section, I scored a set of CDs for two dollars. The other scenes of water and waves are very refreshing and calming while one mellows out, attempts to drown out the bad news.
