Many interests. Lots to learn. Blessed with a great husband. Enjoying retirement!
I really enjoyed the message boards I joined back around 2000. I was on genealogy lists. I learned so much. The people on the boards and lists were generally polite and fun. Once in a while there would be a bit of spat. No cussing each other out. Even eBay was fun back then.

“Thank you for your attention to this matter.” Reminds me of typing letters to people who didn’t make loan & mortgage payments back when I was a bank typist in 1975.

My mother was a good person. She had many good qualities and she and I were close friends. I miss her.

I don’t understand why they cut Evan’s mic. How they could justify it. And then to make that comment that his parents should have spanked him more. The points he wanted to make about education in Alberta were valid points. Very poor behaviour by the politicians.

We made a big pot too. We’re having some for lunch with homemade bread. I like to make it in the instant pot. So tasty.

Some of the Fox entertainment people are declaring that Governor Newsom is ridiculous and not serious. Some of the 47 followers think that GGN is just a copycat of their leader. It’s a strange time to be alive.

We went out for coffee with some of husband’s relatives the other day. I’m still dealing with post conversation anxiety. My social batteries go dead quickly so I can relate.

That is so true. A person’s health situation can change quickly and unexpectedly. Disability isn’t a moral failure.

We had a nice rain. About 2.5 inches. I agree. A blessing.

That’s the truth. Premier Notley gets blamed. The feds get blamed for things that are provincial responsibility. The conservatives in Alberta like to shift blame.
