An absolute menace. My tummy hurts and I’m mad at the Government.
Sometimes funny.

I made it through this LONG day!
Saw bald tires. I almost ran out of gas because I forgot I needed it. Saw a car just decide to turn left into oncoming cars as if they weren’t even there, narrowly missing 2 cars in the process. Saw an accident at the foot of my hill.
What a day. 🥴🥴

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Had a very grown up dinner of 4 gluten free chicky nugs and a hash brown patty.

I had to shovel my way INTO my driveway when I got home from work, which was a first lol.

Immediately after posting this, I had to drive to Windsor. 40 min usually, took 1 hour. 70-80km/hr.

Friendly reminder, especially for folks driving half ton trucks - stop tailgating!!!! You have so much momentum behind you that if I have to stop or slow, you’re gonna fuck us both up!
Good news is I’m not expected to go in - while on call means I *may* have to, I don’t have to go any time soon!
Another snow day.

I, however am on call, so prepping to make my way in to Windsor just incsee I’m needed there!

RBC finally refunded 6 of 10 mos of account charges on my mom’s account there. They were charging $15.20 a month on an account not in use since March 2025.
So at least my dad got $90ish back on that. Ridiculous. I hate that bank.

Watched a large white delivery van cause an other car to have an accident to avoid hitting the white van (which backed out onto the Bedford highway without looking) - and then watched some old white guy yell at the poor dude who managed to avoid any cars but hit a snow bank, call HIM an idiot.

Booba was cleaning her room and found a card from my mom, her Gigi.
Each of us have stumble on cards from mom that each hold the most lovely messages from her.
She loved us all so deeply.

Snow day.

While I wouldn’t say there is more than maybe 7-8cm at my place - it’s the tiniest, finest snow I’ve seen in ages. And it’s just steadily falling.

It’s also sooo cold that there’s no way I’m going out to shovel right now.

Where is my snow??

My dad’s cable box stopped working yesterday and the company said that they would send someone on Monday to fix it, but obviously that’s not gonna happen because of the storm. So I just ran him up a dozen DVDs so he can stay entertained at least

It’s an incredibly helpless feeling - watching what’s happening in the US - and knowing that Canada is a short step behind.

Multiple reports that ICE is highly active at the Calais Maine border crossing snd they are taking FN folks into custody (if you don’t have a blood quantum letter).

The woman in the pink jacket who was recording when they executed the man in Minneapolis has released her POV video.

I’ve linked the TikTok of it here. Content warning:

37 yr old white American, legal gun owner.

So for all those trump loving dorks who thought only brown folk would be targeted - you were wrong - and make no mistake, you will be targeted too.
Another execution of an American by terrorists parading as federal ICE officers.

I saw 2 videos. This was absolutely an execution.

What do you think it’s like to be this relaxed?

Walter (cat) is an escape artist. He lays in wait behind boots and doors and bolts for the door every chance he gets.

I discovered about 2 mos ago that he has a whole other family haha they’re a lovely older couple, 1 street and a backyard over.

So now when he escapes, I just call them…

A year ago we brought Eloise home.
A year ago my mom called her her “grand dog” 🥺 and showed up at the door 20 min after I got home with her for puppy snuggles.

Life looks so different a year later. But some days, Eloise was all that got me out of bed.

Happy 1 year, Smelloise ❤️

CRA said “hey brain that doesn’t do well collecting detailed ANYTHING or remembering ANYTHING (like taking one’s own meds for diagnoses), you need to compile information”. LOL

I’ll never get this tax credit because I can’t remember to get my shit together lol
