Done with most things.
Glad she made it back safe! It's so worrying when cats get out.

Grey cats are the best!

Not having a car helps immensely with the number of requests for rides 😉

I have had pals bike me home from appointments where I need to be picked up by a grown-up and I'd do the same, but the pool of people wanting to go by bike is much smaller.

Which kind?

There are some that are small apple pieces and cinnamon mixed into a donut dough, but others are thick rings of apple with a thin layer of fried batter.

The first kind of totally a donut but the second kind had twice as much apple as batter so I'm less sure...

Western University and Canadian Labor Congress are running a research project right now: Harassment and violence at work in Canada. This may be of interest to you and those you work with. They're inviting all Canadian workers over age 18 to complete.

With the ways these ICE agents are acting, I would wonder if their spouses would be safe to leave 😬

It's such a great idea. I remember a previous bike share service in Ottawa that was basically downtown only, with the easternmost docking point at Beechwood Ave and Vanier Pkwy, completely missing Vanier and Overbrook. We have Vélo Vanier which is amazing, but a short term option is needed too.

Very interesting. I'll have a 10yo and a 13yo next summer who are very into math and science and creating. Signed up to stay in the loop!

Hoekstra is filling the role of your abusive, violent partner's brother who tells you he's sorry but shouldn't you just try being nicer and doing exactly what the abuser says? Because sure, that'll work. 🙄

Toddler age is also a tricky one because they're so unpredictable.

Cats don't like how noisy babies are but they're pretty good with them. In my experience they are a bit astonished/horrified when the kids figure out locomotion.

Sounds like everyone did okay though!!

There were an astonishing number of them in my hometown. We could've given the Kids in the Hall a run for their money.
