… amen. Now dance bitches!!!!

Chickenshit.

Dear JD...

Buckle up folks while I regale you of the story of the tough old duffer of downtown Dartmouth. (He is okay) My SEVENTY-EIGHT year old father was getting pizza yesterday downtown when two people raced into the shop and screamed they were being chased. They tried to lock the door but couldn’t. 1/

Because of The Bread Lounge, Ahbi’s Curry N More, and The Empanada Shop, I am currently cursed with an overabundance of delicious lunch options! Oh, woe is me! <scarfs into a samosa chaat>

First 3 episodes of #themightynein are out on Prime. I know what my evening looks like!!!

Well, what a terrible day to have eyes.

Just a girl, wishing Connections would crawl into the ocean.

My body is being weird today. Along with the migraine, which has now subsided into a low end rumble, my forearm feels sore if you rub it up my arm, but not down the arm. Same with my knee on the opposite side. Not extreme pain or anything but enough of a twinge to make you realize something’s off.

My head is absolutely pounding this morning. It’s like I have several tiny brain gnomes all armed with pickaxes in there just swinging away. Advil taken and back to bed.

Well that’s a relief.

Oh she’s just the sweetest!!!

Anyone with a headache today, please know I’m your kindred spirit today. Head’s just throbbing.

Time to start another week. Uuughhhh.

Two dollars!

If you have ever wondered what a sugar coma looks like, I advise you to try the Sobey's Gourmet Cinnamon Buns in the specialty flavour of Fluffernutter. Holy smokes. Yeast raised cinnamon bun with marshmallow and peanut butter.

An Alert Ready test is scheduled for Wednesday, Nov 19th at 1:55pm. Alert Ready will be distributing a test alert to Canadians in participating provinces and territories on their television, radio and compatible wireless devices.

Behind the Tasty Freeze, you say?

Supper is that leftover beans and rice I had Tuesday, tossed in a cauldron with chicken stock, a diced chicken breast, more rice, and salsa. I'll serve it with tortilla chips for a cheap dinner.

One of the wonderful young people who was on my team last year graduated today from SMU. I'm so ridiculously proud of him!

Woodchippers are fine and all, but my personal preference is a horrible, horrible sawmill accident instead.

On behalf of all Nova Scotians, I extend heartfelt birthday wishes to His Majesty King Charles III. Today, we celebrate His Majesty’s steadfast commitment to duty and service. #RoyalFamily

Holy crap!! This weekend episode 1 of The Mighty Nein is available on YouTube for free. Thank you, Traveler for this lovely gift!

Another good evening about to start! City of Heroes, my vape (w attachment), and a good playlist. Keep it 100 on the land, the sea, the sky.

I love their work so much. I have gorgeous glittery shamrocks from them and the compliments I get… they’re a local artist in Halifax. I hope you love their stuff as much as I do! littlecalicoclay.com

Let me tell you this: nail art stickers are awesome. I got some snowflake ones for the winter and they look nice on the light blue I used today. I bet they’ll look even better over a rich deep forest green, or vibrant red. I added a glitter topcoat for snow sparkle. I know my cuticles look awful.

Got this super cool tote from Temu. It’s perfect for my D&D stuff! Also check out my newest dice. I *LOVE* them.

You been hit by a smooth hymnal

So, I am off today. What to do... I am thinking laundry, light cleaning, then perhaps an edible, loud music and video games.

So that order, according to the email I got confirming delivery said it was delivered at 8:30pm. The email was sent at 10pm. Thank goodness they followed directions and put it at the back door.

I don’t know, maybe every generation gets the Pope they do not need but the Pope they deserve, and we just happened to hit the multi-millennia intersection.

Past Me was looking out for future me when she booked Friday off this week to go along with my normally scheduled Thursday off. Past Me realized in February that I’d really like a 4 day weekend in November. Present Me completely forgot about it. What a lovely gift Past Me gave me.

Oh hell no. A CANADIAN company. Fuck you, Skyservice for helping and working with ICE. Toll free number in the 2nd picture.

with the holidays upon us please enjoy my favorite miss manners column (circa 2002)

Boy I sure love getting a notification that my package is out for delivery and there’s no way to give feedback/remind that the delivery address is the back door. Address reads: Line 1: BACKDOOR-My civic address Line 2: BACKDOOR BACKDOOR BACKDOOR. Bets where it gets delivered?

Someone make sure Punchcocks knows it’s snowing please.

We don’t rake the leaves in our yard. They provide homes for bugs to winter in, lets birds search through them for the aforementioned bugs, and provides the ground nutrients when they break down. Hubs will mulch the ones in the dogs section using the lawnmower, but other than that we leave them be.

Oooh me too!!! * slow burn British mysteries * my Britpop 80s playlist * a good edible, music, and video games * a yummy pastry * walk in the woods walking on crispy dry leaves w hubs and dogs * working something out /learning something new / fixing something * laughing with friends (CAH)

The beans portion of rice and beans for dinner smells so delicious!!! I’m very excited to have it with plain white rice. It’s a little spicy and the rice will temper it nicely.

I am making homemade beans and rice for dinner. I'm craving something savoury and comforting. This sounds like it will hit the spot! Dried pinto beans just went into the instant pot for a hot bath.

This is my beloved Grampa. He taught me woodworking, gardening, and how to tend to forests. He's been gone for well over half my life and I miss him every single day. He volunteered for the war effort, and helped build pontoon bridges in Holland in the 32 Field Company, Canadian Military Engineers.

This was my great, great uncle, Locky. He left Summerville Beach to go to New York to work on building one of the bridges there. He enlisted in the States to go fight the war, and never came home. He was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross for his valour.

DRAGON FIRE (1989) Acrylic on Watercolor Board - 32” x 20” After I submitted my concept sketch for the cover of SUNRUNNER’S FIRE by Melanie Rawn, I realized that the anatomy of the dragon’s wings was inconsistent with the structure on the other covers I had done for the series. 1/3
