IT’S ALIVE!!! Don’t worry, those aren’t monster tentacles reaching into the workshop. They’re just the power lines for the cottage, cabins and shower house. This weekend we ran them into the building but they won’t be connected to the electrical panel until there are buildings on the other ends.

Collecting fabric for a special woman who’s slowly losing her vision, and wants to keep doing something she loves for as long as she can: quilting.

If you have any extra fabric, I’d love to bring it to her over Christmas. 🎄

Drop-off bin in Grand Bay–Westfield. PM for address.

Thank you. ❤️

A Quick Visit to Niagara Falls and Toronto
In my 41 years of existence, I've have the privilege of being able to visit and explore places all over Canada, and elsewhere in the world. I've seen many incredible sights, I've explore places only visited by a few, and I've experienced things that have created incredible lifelong memories. Surprisingly, I had never visited Niagara Falls... until last week! Michael and I went on a quick trip to Toronto and Niagara Falls.

It was another exhausting day at The Timber Walk, preparing footings for the piers that will hold up Birchwood Cottage. I’m so grateful for the people in my life who are willing to help me turn this dream into a reality.

This Thanksgiving, we’re grateful for the members of the Canadian Armed Forces serving abroad.

While most Canadians gather with loved ones, they stand on guard — sacrificing time with their families to protect ours. Thank you for your service and dedication.

Trump’s 20-point Gaza plan did shape the ceasefire + hostage deal — he set deadlines & pushed both sides. But mediators (Qatar, Egypt, Turkey) & war fatigue mattered too. Trump was an accelerant, not the sole cause.

Trusting Trump: Why Hamas gambled on giving up Gaza hostages
Hamas has called Donald Trump a racist, a recipe for chaos and a man with an absurd vision for Gaza. And it was the phone call he got Benjamin Netanyahu to make to Qatar's prime minister that changed their minds about him.

Trump promised a booming comeback. The numbers tell a different story. From slowing growth to ballooning debt, weak jobs, sticky inflation & inequality — here’s the U.S. by the metrics.

This is an interesting development. Also, as more people turn to the gig economy for their primary source of income, labour laws need to catch up.

Day 2/31 of my October get-back-into-running mission. Again I only went 2 km, but I picked up the pace. I’m feeling it now. Tomorrow I’ll stick
to a slow jog. Slow and steady. It’s been a bit, and I like to snack. 🤣 www.strava.com/activities/1...

I pause today to remember the children who never came home, the survivors who carry the scars, and the families forever changed. Reconciliation is not just one day or a hashtag; it’s a responsibility I accept. 🧡 #EveryChildMatters #TruthAndReconciliation
