I agree, on one level, this is really smart politics; give Smith everything she wanted, then stand back & watch as nothing happens.

Happy American Thanksgiving to your family, Spike. Despite the sadness, we hope you can enjoy the meaning of the day. Holding your Dad and family in warm thoughts and prayers. ❤️

So very sorry for your loss, Spike. Deepest condolences to your Dad and family. 💔🙏

This trick sounds VERY familiar, Obi. 🤣🐾 A Wheaten trait? 😉🐾

Absolutely! Every single day.

But maybe the champ for "I didn't go in there with a plan and I came out with a stack" is The Printed Word in Dundas.

Wordsworth in Waterloo, Epic in Hamilton, Type in Toronto are good. Fanfare in Stratford always has a half-dozen things I didn't know I needed. Bakka in Toronto is a unique F/SF resource in the country and has the best staff. Woolf and Co is new here in Galt but seems solid.

A3 Not a pug so Perie loves the snow. ❄️ She'd say let's get out there. We prefer the cold to the heat. She races around the big backyard trail Mom shovels for her. #pugtalk

Beautiful pic! 💙
