Ottawa vs Montreal tonight.
Sens can't lose and be swept 0-4 by the Canadiens this season.
But a Montreal win means another Canadian team clinches a playoff spot.
Could be a complicated game 🙂

A sweet rye malt with a touch of hop and a nutty finish. A delicious, complex rye pale ale from Prince Edward County's Parsons Brewing.
A perfect beer to celebrate Team Canada's win today!
Cheers to great Canadian craft beers 🍻

As a Canadian, if you left your house this morning to discover Howard Lutnick face down and unconscious in a puddle of water, where would you go for breakfast? Cora's or Eggspectation's?

"Bright, tropical and remarkably drinkable. If you're going to pretend to like Hazy IPA's, it might as well taste good."
Sometimes I can't do better than what's written on the can 🙂 A delicious one from Sarnia's Refined Fool Brewing.

Living in a chaotic, spontaneous world can be stressful for many autistic individuals.
Routines and structure are crucial for reducing anxiety, promoting predictability, and fostering a sense of security, helping them manage daily activities and transitions more effectively.

April 2nd is World Autism Day.
But since Trump has hijacked that day this year for his ridiculous Liberation Day, I have decided to fly my flag for the entire month of April.
Looks damn good up there 🙂

My 5 year old son Sammy is autistic & I am proud to say that for the 1st time ever yesterday, he chose his own clothes and dressed himself for school, socks and all! My little guy was so excited and happy.
As I have said before, Sammy is not struggling with Autism. He's damn good at it 🙂

If you are venturing out today anywhere in the Ontario area, remember that it may be quite icy and slippery. Be careful.
Geena is slightly bruised but bouncing back quickly. She also has a great sense of humor about the incident 🙂

Most people are smarter, kinder, and more emphathic than we realize. Those who are not, are just louder. But we can't live our lives in fear of that angry minority. We need to live with hope that the majority will raise their voices.
