I'm a snarky sarcasticky profaney political psychology blogger trying to explain this mixed up muddled up shook up world since 2016. Also, an expat, teacher, husband, father, runner, autistic Read my blog!
TMI Warning! Gross medical information! Been feeling listless, anxious, a little depressed for the last couple of days. Urinary urgency and frequency -- like four + times an hour. A little stinging and aching "down there." I knew what was coming and finally, my little friend came for a visit!
I LOVE living in Winnipeg. This lovely family of sixteen ducklings waddled past the house this morning.
We've had the best day! We went to a great show with an orchestra and choir playing the soundtrack of "The Fellowship of the Ring" as we watched. Amazing experience blending live and filmed performance with fanatical fans of the movie.
Delighted in watching a double brood of teenaged goslings enter the pond at St. Vital Park's Duck Pond this afternoon
The wood ducklings were out with their mum's at St. Vital Park's Duck Pond.
This morning we woke up to this surprise in the side yard! We've got babies popping up every where! Happy spring!
Now that my sourdough starter is ready, I set up my first levain to make my first sourdough boule tomorrow. Again, how do people keep their jars clean when doing this?
I'm having a bad #Wordle week. I missed a day. I didn't share my results. I've been distracted by my first sourdough starter. Here's my starter. I don't know how those people keep their jars clean, so don't @ me.
March may come in like a lion and out like a lamb, and, April showers might bring May flowers, but what does frequent April snow fall bring? A late harvest? Yes, it is snowing AGAIN!
We woke up this morning to about six cm of fresh snow fall. I guess winter wanted us to have a proper introduction to Canada. And, the Canadian geese are back.
Our democracy is in trouble. Trump is dismantling it faster than anyone imagined. The Republican Party is helping them. They are refusing to do their Constitutional duty by holding oversight hearings with sworn testimony, settling instead for press conferences.
That's terrible. I'm sorry to see it. There's a sweet bunny hopping across our backyard.
While the blizzard has abated, the snow and wind have not. Luckily we're snug inside with coffee and #Wordle. Wordle 1,645 4/6 ⬛🟨⬛⬛🟩 🟨⬛🟩⬛🟩 ⬛⬛🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Join the fun and share your results! #WordleSky
You had a good match with your starter and an inspired second tier. That's a great puzzle. Here was my good morning. It's crazy cold.
Oddly enough, I was warm except at the beginning. My balaclava was pretty gross by the end, though. It was wet and frosty. I was impressed by the free hot chocolate and vegetarian chili afterwards. It was a fun run.
Ran the Salvation Army's Santa Shuffle Fun Run to raise money for Xmas gifts for children. Can you guess which were the BEFORE pictures and which are AFTER? More pictures and commentary below.
Anybody else get a message like this. Here it is 27 November, a full seventeen days after the message and sixteen days after my suspension would've gone into effect, and I'm still posting. Scam? Scam likely!
Not an easy one today. But, on a wild hair I decided to try one of my favorite words, and it hit. Luck be a lady all day because it's been between negative three and eight all week, the pond is frozen over, and there's a light dusting of snow on the ground. Wordle 1,604 3/6 ⬛⬛⬛⬛🟩 ⬛⬛⬛⬛🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Pics
Don't let them gaslight you. Kimmel didn't disrespect Kirk. He's remarks were directed at Trump and Republicans. Nothing wrong with what he said, unless you're a power-hungry thin-skinned narcissistic, would be dictator. #QuoteKimmel
Charlie Kirk, still destroying lives from beyond the grave. What a guy.
My proudest moment in thirty years of teaching university, high school, and middle school came from getting 25 five and six year olds to make these butterflies. How do the teachers of young children do it?
The Moon Illusion over Phnom Penh on 7 July at 7:20 PM. Not bad for a phone
We must all join the resistance. We must all do everything in our power to stop the Republican fascist machine anywhere and anytime we can. These 10 commandments are based on the Danish resistance in WWII. Look for your opportunities. #Resistance #CivilDisobedience
