I remember saving chore and babysitting money so every 2 weeks could go to Sam's and get a new 45 ( and yes I know exactly how old that makes me sound...lol) Thanks so much for another great memory! Have a great rest of your week!

I have pre-ordered the paperback copy to gift a friend...but decided to reread my original as well ...sending all being impacted by this lawsuit much positivity...but especially a fellow Canadian... Ms. Craig...#elbows up🍁

Lolol we have a 10 month golden rescue that I am pretty sure shares some chaos gremlin genes.kya did and still has an adorable face ( butter wouldn't melt...lol) but the holes in the lawn from 5 min unsupervised...we wouldn't trade her for anything...🐾❣️

I second that motion...I sometimes feel the most exhausting part is having to explain to people (family) after 8 years that I'm glad they think I look better today as if they have xray vision and can see my sarcoidosis...husband bought me these shirts for days I just can't anymore

We are very happy you share all your furbabies with us. We echo your sentiment...we had our perfect Gyllden...thought maybe get another? when Golden Rescue called in March & asked if we were still interested in puppy? Enter Kya now 9 months old she is a big lovable wingnut...she completes our family

These two girls tried to reenact the lady and the tramp scene...but sticks definitely not as easy to work with as pasta...lol

Hope you have a great day! Sending you much pawsitivity and wishes for happy and healthy next year to start many more!

Going though my mom's stuff when she passed I came across this clipping. For context she was born in Germany 1940, she and dad brought us to Canada in late 60's, she suffered from dementia for her last 20 years....this clipping was in a book and looks like from a paper about 15 years old. Prescient.

Sending you the happiest of birthday wishes...while we are currently watching you with @nicollewallace.bsky.social @jheil.bsky.social and @timmiller.bsky.social ...hope you have a great day to start a happy and healthy next year!

Husband pointed this out to me from Costco Canada magazine. He asked if that meant he could hide everything for next 364 days...lol
Happy #nationalspoilyourdogday to all that celebrate!🐶 Gyllden & Kya are going to go drop off some treats/toys at local rescue this afternoon #dogsareawesome

I cannot be the only one that listening to some of these people just makes my head hurt....or am I?
July 29, 2025 at 8:30 PM
Sorry I watch The Gilded Age...even they manage to break up the gold a little with other colours....lol
July 17, 2025 at 7:02 PM
My golden girls prefer swimming in Lake Ontario to walking around neighbourhood in this weather ( even if it means they miss treats from various houses...lol)

We got Kya from #goldenrescue end of March when she was almost 4 months old. She immediately crushed on her big sister Gyllden...no matter where Gyllden lays down Kya will curl up as close as possible or at least has to make sure she can touch her.

Spring...summer...fall and winter!
Happy 158th birthday Canada!
Hoping we all do what we can to make sure you stay beautiful for many many more generations to come!🍁🌎

And less than 10 minutes from us here in Southern Ontario, where this inspirational woman helped so many with their journey on the Underground Railway is a school which is also not being changed...instead we celebrate her!

Driving through Beamsville today and saw this display...what a wonderful bright sight on a cold damp Saturday...Well done @townoflincolnon.bsky.social #LincolnLibrary and #downtownbenchbeamsville ...apologies if I have missed anyone else connected. Happy June Pride all!
May 31, 2025 at 5:20 PM
Gyllden and Kya using their best soulful eyes trick to let me know that I am starving them to death!..lol (PS...they are definitely not!) Happy weekend all!
May 30, 2025 at 12:43 PM
Can't make myself watch...so gratefully thank you and @atrupar.com and @acyn.bsky.social in advance for your service! But for those partaking maybe this will make it a little less painful. In seriousness, much respect for Service members, past & present and their families!
