Have a bio - let me who you are. * Bonus points for photos & nationality - I want friends from all around the world.
I am kind, I am not perfect, and sarcasm is too often how I show I care. * Ask a question to find out about me!
Screaming to the world with constant re-posting does nothing for me.

Friday 13th is over & I am hopeful that news from events today, and those planned for tomorrow across the USA are the best they can be.
The current wish is for the machines of war to promptly leave the city, once the discusting spectacle is over.
Are any drivers named Luigi with live rounds?

🤞 They may hear, but it is still hopeful that it is eventually understood.
Have you ever been asked to use these terms in describing your pain to a doctor?
This chart is absolutely fabulous for describing pain in terms doctors can hear and understand.
This is amazing.

The application process to adopt a dog from a foster based rescue organization has more checks and evaluations than a lot of other processes.
No complaints!
Just wish the same amounts of resources, knowledge, and capability requirements were verified as thorough in other segments of society.

Took a social media break for a few weeks to limit exposure to the news cycles.
A few moments of review and the anxiety and hate of what some people are capable of is rising again.
🟧 MS Awareness month is over, and 🌈Pride Month has begun - I support both every calendar month of the year!

Officially winter has ended in my part of Canada, road construction has begun again!
Zero complaints for the next 7 months of detours to accommodate the necessary infrastructure improvements and repairs.
⚠️ Reminder - safely share the roads with farmers and their slower moving vehicles!

This was a painful emotional punch, I've been holding my breath for the past week waiting for our election outcome.
Political game players please work better together for Canada in the House, get all the Premiers facing the same direction, and Municipalities working for humble Canadian needs.

“…this morning, from a war zone half a world away, I was reading about your election. And for the first time in days, I exhaled.
A small, almost invisible breath. Relief.
And then came gratitude…
You didn’t just choose kindness or experience…
You chose not to flirt with fascism.”

I hoped the finished project would have had more detail than it does.
Not impressed with results of an 18 count Aida kit from an Asian source. Was it a stolen image with only floss in shades of: red, blue & green? 😠
Very glad being able to purchase kits again from preferred stores in Ukraine.🧶

Imagine yourself not appreciating me for who I am, my immune system does it daily.
I am at home making sure the dog stays covered up while she is sleeping, with regret towards the overabundance of activity I put into the weekend.
I feel worse than normal today, but the back deck is open for 2025.

Ouch my ears!
The profanity today coming from my husband's conference call participants.
A global organization moving prototype hardware from China to the USA for programming, before it can ship to Canada for testing.

The Bookface brought up a lovely memory today.
Can we agree to call the members of the cult of Trump Zombies yet?
I've absorbed enough horror based dystopian novels to deal with 'that' rather than the 'this' of today.

Being in a micro climate area can be good or bad with lake effects. This morning = good with the freezing rain storm choosing to mainly go around.
I was a Canadian crazy lady yelling at the lilacs last week (during the 3rd fake spring) to not to open yet.
Generator humming, coffee is a must!
