Kicked off my year in reading with a reread of Fourth Wing in anticipation of Onyx Storm being released later this month...

I love rereading books, particularly in fantasy series, because things hit different when you KNOW what's up. This was a GREAT reread. 💗

Could. Not. Put. This. Down.
Definitely lived up to the expectations set by "Powerless" and I have already pre-ordered Fearless.

This series has sky rocketed to my favourites list this month. 2024 has been a good year for reading for me!

My favourite part of Christmas used to be Christmas Eve, for a number of reasons.

Some time ago, it became Tibb's Eve. Largely because it was the night for friends 💞

What we do together to celebrate has shifted with time, but it remains the thing I look forward to the most 🥰

Time for the annual rewatching of Love Actually, while I write up Christmas cards.

I will not argue with anyone that this is a good movie or that it isn't problematic... but I will also not stop enjoying it 🤷‍♀️😝

#Traditions

As a traveling relief vet, I have so much appreciation for clinic cats.. especially the ones who literally crawl up my coat to say hello in the morning 🥰

Miss Fanny is light as a feather compared to my beasties, but still a quality cuddler. 😻

Antimicrobial stewardship means, at minimum, doing cytology EVERY time you see dermatitis and only reaching for oral antibiotics when you *know* they are indicated.

Saw an itchy dog today with an area of redness, hair loss, and crusts... and cytology showed nothing but yeast. 🧐

#VetMed

Earlier this week, I finished this book and I LOVED IT SO MUCH.

My library does not currently have the rest of the series, and 2 other books I had on hold are now available... but the urge to just go buy the rest of the trilogy right now is STRONG 😶

So by that definition, those that read braille are also not reading.

Convenient that you cut off the 2nd listing, which is most inclusive. DISCOVER information from a written or printed source, does not specify if with eyes, fingers, or ears.

All day, every time I walked down the hall I spyed Phil napping on the bed.

So it gave me a bit of a jump scare when I turned on the lights in the bathroom and BAM! There he was on the bath mat. 😅

Cats. Sneaky like ninjas.

Been travelling a lot the past week and it has been discouraging how few masks I've seen, considering the time of year and amount of illness on the go... mine goes on before I even enter the terminal 🤷‍♀️

I do a lot of travelling and have always treated air travel as a potential plague event 😷

What are your favourite album releases this year?

A 🧵 , top 12 in no particular order selected just now and list might be different if you ask me again in a week 😅

I grew up in Ottawa, and mostly I lived downtown. I have always loved the Parliament buildings for their architecture and history... I never thought becoming a veterinarian would lead to going inside them for meetings.

Today, I was inside the Senate of Canada building, and it was kinda cool 🤩

Got an early Christmad present: a super soft fleece snood!

This is going to be very much enjoyed when I go back to Labrador in January ❄️

After a whirlwind of several days of travel, fun, concert, travel, meetings, celebrations, I don't even know what day it is...

....enjoying some quiet stillness with family this evening 🥰

(Which means I finally had some time to poke around blue sky... 😅)
