@nickkellett.bsky.social It's so nice to see you on here. I have fond memories of the SharePoint Saturday events and pub gatherings you and your colleagues organized ... over ten years ago. How time flies and technology changes, eh? 🤓

Preparing myself for a public transportation adventure downtown for a medical appointment then coffee with an old work friend.
I anticipate that joy will balance out the frustrations.

I teared up while sorting donations at the library today 🥹 Someone left a photograph of their Tabby Cat wearing a sweater, stuffed in a Harry Potter book. 🐱♥️🤗

Tune in to Cross Country Checkup on CBC Radio / online at 4:00 p.m. Eastern. Listen and chime in with your thoughts on Canada's town hall.
When he entered the political ring, people called him boring. I find him to be intelligent, articulate and measured in his speech. Refreshing. Reassuring.

One of the kindest gifts you can give someone is your time.
Because when you share it, you’re sharing a little piece of your life.

Thanks to Canadian PM @mark-carney.bsky.social 's #speech at the #WEF this week, many of us looked up or relearned the definition of "hegemon", and how TF to pronounce "hegemony". 😅

Hey, @helps.octranspo.com is the SMS system for bus stop schedules not working? 🤔
I plan to get out on the buses today for errands and can't get the times for my first stop. I have tried two different stop numbers with no response. 🤨
Not taking trains, just my usual buses 🚌
