Wise words from the doctor last year, still valid today.
I know I’m new at yoga but it seems to me that walking barefoot across someone else’s mat is never acceptable behavior.
Ps, the perpetrator is NOT new to yoga so I’m thinking it may be the yoga equivalent of marking one’s territory?

Sweet new (to me) acoustic fat tire bike (c/w studded tires) made riding to & from @coffeeoutside.bsky.social on icy-patched paths a lovely (safe) and fun experience!
Bring on the snow!

Something is seriously wrong with this man.
There. I said it.
Trump: "We have officially renamed the Dept of Defense back to the original name, Dept of War. And remember we won World War 1, we won World War 2, we won everything in between. We won everything that came before. And then we brilliantly decided to change the name. We became politically correct"

My dad (3rd from L and C in 2nd pic) was a miner in Dorion Ontario in 1943 when he & his buddies answered the call to enlist.
They all made it back.
He never talked about WWll, ever.

I remember when the Oilers of the olden days gave a lackluster performance they could pretty much count on Sather scheduling a bag skate the very next day. Pretty sure no one does that anymore.

My fourth (and likely last) grandchild was born this morning and this grandma got a bit weepy when I learned that my son & his wife chose Maryanne as her middle name. Their dog (whom we’re minding) is pretty stoked too.
Feeling 🥰

I was today’s years old when I learned that a group of ostriches can be called a “wobble.”

I’m beginning to suspect the premier of Alberta is following Cankles McTaco Tits’ playbook on changing rules, enacting new ones & eliminating anyone who questions her unscrupulous behavior.

Quelle surprise.
The UCP is dumping the AG responsible for investigating the corrupt care scandal.
