My number 1 stock tip- short the S&P every Friday. You’ve got really good odds of the US President saying or doing something over the weekend that will cause the markets to open with losses on Monday.

None of the Top 10 auto insurers in Alberta made money on auto insurance in 2024.

The “best” one paid out $102 for every $100 collected.

The worst paid out $160 for every $100 collected.

Trends like this lead to insurers leaving the market.

Worrisome all around.

I am beyond delighted to be able to wear my @brysonthegaytive.bsky.social handcrafted beaded poppy for the second year!

Not only will it be on my work clothes it will also be worn on my RCN uniform and my tippet.

I don’t know where she learned it but my oldest child seems to have gone all in on mindfulness meditation as a way to regulate herself.

The last time my weight started with a 1 I was 15 years old.

It’s not much but it’s something.

On Friday night my good friend, Dr. Frank, was ordained in the @unitedchurchcda.bsky.social and became Rev. Dr. Frank!

I was deeply honoured to be able to be there to support him!

The Moderator was also there which was especially wonderful!

On Friday I was privileged to attend a ceremony commemorating the 80th anniversary of the end of WW2 held by Veterans Affairs Canada.

Following the ceremony the CDS and CAFCWO took a few minutes to chat with the army and air cadets in attendance.

Both very down to earth leaders!

Sometimes it’s the little things that matter, like @glengower.ca jumping all over @en.ottawa.ca staff to make sure the planed reduction of this 4-way stop to a 2-way stop not only didn’t happen but permanent signs installed in under 2 weeks.

Thanks Glen!

Had the distinct honour of marrying my stepbrother to his amazing wife yesterday!

Good times were had by all AND my wife and I got our first night away from our kids in just over 5 years.

It’s interesting. I get practically no engagement on this app but the 1-2 things I get are nearly always positive.

X gives me tons of engagement but rarely anything positive.

Yesterday was a wonderful day. I couldn’t have asked for a more welcoming community to be part of for worship.

Good Afternoon! There is beauty in elegant simplicity.

Spent nap time today prepping for my pulpit supply tomorrow morning.

It’s always an honour to be asked to worship with a community…and the one I’m with tomorrow is one I have a special fondness for.

I had always planned on eventually converting my BA in Theology to a BTh one day.

Then I did a masters degree and figured one day hadn’t come yet.

My university no longer awards BTh’s so I guess one day is now never.

Oh well.

High school chemistry may not have prepared me to be a scientist but it DID teach me how to use a graduated cylinder.

Oddly enough newborn baby bottles are pretty much the same.

My little guy got pretty deregulated. His solution was to head to his cuddle swing to have a rest.

He’s been asleep for 30 minutes now.

Adults- listen to your kids. They will almost always tell you what they need.
