Just me, here, at 2:30am, "wooohooo"ing to myself because I still have super mom hearing and reflexes.

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

It’s a scam

Now, that’s a matter of opinion. We want it, so it can’t be.

There’s so much CanCon in this link 😄. I was doing a search because I saw a real estate listing for a house on Dingle Bingle Hill Road. As a kid, Nanaimo *did* seem like the destination for irreverence. I can’t believe fortune sent us this way, but I’m so thankful!! www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Like many folks, I've struggled to settle into a good book, this past 5 or so years.
If I have to be awake at 6am (I don't, I just am), I'm not going to spend the next 18 hours reading new

I can't rebuild democracy, today, so I'm settling for rewarding myself for getting chores done (big deal, post back injury) and building new things. #Lego
I encourage you to find one little thing you love to think about but never start, and give yourself a boost by doing it. We deserve it.

I bought it immediately, hoping it would hit the top on the bestseller list, week 1. I haven't been able to bring myself to read it yet, though. I don't feel hope right now, and I don't know how we honour him properly AND stay sane and mentally healthy
