Some #snaps from my adventurous walk getting groceries in #downtownGuelph #abstractphotography

Another #beanie is finito! Happy how it turned out. The #spiral that emerged was unexpected but welcomed. This one has many eyelets so it breaths well. #knitting

Saw this “little” guy the other day. The largest #moth I’ve seen since I was a kid.

An amazing evening with #chanticleer at the #EloraFestival tonight. The closest to vocal perfection I’ve yet to hear!!

Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.' - Isaac Asimov

“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.” ~ George Orwell, 1984

Been forever since I’ve #photographed anything. Today these guys called out to me. #greenenergy #lifefindsaway

Part of me wonders if #trump is starting wars so that when the #midterms come he can justify postponing them.

Hello fellow #knitters! Proud to share with you my first original #beanie! It’s available for download below: www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

Butterfly populations are crashing through the floor. One way people can help is rewilding their gardens. At the very least, mowing lawns less often. www.bbc.com/news/article...

It’s important to have some #goodnews once in a while! I like that green energy is becoming more wide-spread simply for economic reasons; the strongest motivator. www.bbc.com/future/artic...

Whenever I try to use less #packaging I’m being penalized. If I go to the #BulkBarn to buy nuts or peanut butter and use my own containers to save on waste it actually costs more than buying them in the grocery store. All I want to do is help the planet! The system does not favour this.

Am I sad? Definitely. But surprised? Not at all. Saw this coming years ago.

A friendly reminder that today is #BlackoutFriday. Buy only essentials and avoid the big chains. Let’s stick it to those machine men in power! #24HourEconomicBlackout

Opt out tomorrow!

Two steps forward and one step… I missed a few things on this when I checked it and decided to rip it out. Always a little stressful! Going to work with a lifeline from now on :-) #knitting

The pattern continues to emerge. This is the first project I’ve done that has holes in it when stitches are intentionally skipped. I’m #knitting with Italian #Alpaca #wool.

Home sick. Knitting and chillaxing with this critter.

My new project. The Martha #beanie by Amanda Morse that I picked up from Ravalry.com. Learning some new stitches here! Looking forward to seeing how it will turn out.

As an experiment, just deleted my #Amazon account. There was a life before Amazon and I don’t remember feeling less “fulfilled”.

#Amazon #Meta #Walmart and #McDonalds are among companies who are cutting their #DEI programs. Will no longer support them as a consumer. Shame. www.forbes.com/sites/conorm...

As a fun side project I’m touching up some stuff on my mid-60s #Yamaha #U3 #uprightpiano. The white key tops were replaced when I bought it years ago, but the fronts are very discoloured. 1 hour of sanding each! But worth the result :-) Looks like new.

Spooning with my kitty while listening to #PinkFloyd ’s #DarkSideoftheMoon . Not a bad Saturday night 😸

Mark your calendar and pass it on!

Snuggling with snugglepuff on the couch while the snow falls 🥰🥰🥰

Currently watching ‘The Madness of King Trump’. It’s available, well, everywhere. The cast is small and fairly white-washed. Acting is decent though. At times it feels like a rip off of the Handmaid’s tale, but this is more of a black comedy. Not suitable for children.

Finished this project today. Made with Italian merino wool. I wasn’t happy with how the crown initially turned out, so I went back and made up my own pattern to finish it. It was the first time I’ve had to redo a project and I learned a lot! #knitting #beanie

On #Ontariotoday on #CBCRadio, they were discussing how Canada could respond to the emerging #tariffs imposed on our goods. Instead of retaliating in a knee-jerk fashion, let's rely more on ourselves/allies and let the US shoot itself in the foot. Logical when dealing with a bully.

Here’s a piece I composed many moons ago. It’s in the style of a very short, gloomy #Chopin #waltz. I feel it fits the current mood of the world. May it be a small emotional consolation for all the mournful souls out there, who face deportation, discrimination, war and unemployment. #piano #composer

I have deactivated my FB account. Looking forward to making new connections here!
