Dear Diary: January 73rd. Winter is no longer marshmallowy, it is the pee-stained treacherous ice of my front walk, which is the limit of my dog's forays into the world. My Christmas lights droop like the unkempt beard of a man who has lost the will to groom. I fear we lost the sun. Send rum.

Winter yard…27 days until Spring arrives 😵‍💫

My mother was a nine year old refugee when she came to this country. She and her sister spoke no English. There were no ESL classes then. But good teachers in the small town of Barrhead where they lived taught them, and taught them well. They all became voracious readers with beautiful diction.

A snow fort in Riding Mountain National Park. A beautiful day with lots of folks out and about skating and skiing. Extra enjoyable as there is big snow on the way tomorrow 😖

#BirdOfTheDay #WinterSurvivors so grateful these friends hang in there with me all Winter☺️

#Aurora and the fishing huts. A lovely Winter scene but I am SO ready for Spring! There is another blizzard on the way😩🤣

another fabulous night of #Aurora in Southern Manitoba #ShareYourWeather

Oh, to be a fat Grizzly lazily floating downstream past schools of delicious sashimi.

It just happens that back in 2014 I made a bunch of Winter Olympic Lolcats. Let's have a look!

“For those who are just learning about Tumbler Ridge for the first time, know that it is so much more than the events of this week. The town is a portrait of resiliency. It has survived against the odds and emerged stronger.” @thetyee.ca thetyee.ca/News/2026/02...

Aaand there you go: Trump’s sudden about-face on the most important Canada-US border crossing came after meeting with the billionaire family that owns the rival bridge. Nice scoop, confirming suspicions of everyone who has followed this file and is familiar with Trump www.nytimes.com/2026/02/10/w...

This one hit me like a freight train today.

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken. Hundreds of kids are still detained. We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

I heard several Lemon-bellied Flyrobins making some noise in a tree, I had a closer look and saw a Tawny Frogmouth 'Podargus strigoides' #BirdsSeenIn2026 in Darwin #Australia www.inaturalist.org/observations... #wildoz #aves

another gloomy foggy day but everybody looked extra special with the lovely rime ice...the Waxwing got frosted tips too!😂 #birds

Happy #SuperbOwlSunday!

Anyone on my network familiar with social supports in Canada, specifically in Edmonton, where a disabled autistic guy might turn for help? He’s about to lose housing and internet access. He’s brilliant but physically hurt, and he’s about to be on the street in this winter.
