An, not in. Another win for speech to text. 🙄

Looks like they are forecasting in atmospheric river for sometime at the end of next week. Great.

Now the typical Lower Mainland weather returns. Took long enough 😂

It's the weekend yet my motivation just tanked.

Trying out multi focus contacts. So far, I am not liking them. They are good far but, none of the ones they fitted me with work well for reading. Need to get some reading glasses I guess.

Got these more as I have picked up mountain biking and hate wearing my glasses.

Nowhere near as much rain as they were calling for. Good day to head out and do something.

Took a few year off playing video games. Have gotten back into it lately. Last time this happened, I got into the best shape in my life. And guess what? I spent a few days this week hiking and biking in Whistler.

Guess the mood is back.

Well, so much for spell checking…..

I can confirm that we o my have 2 seasons in BC. Winter and road work.

This has been a good summer. The sad part is that it has flown by and is almost coming to an end.

I actually pictured him pulling a rabbit out of a hat.

Have to say, loved going to #SunPeaks this week. Going to return with our bikes in August. You'll catch me in the kids area trying not to kill myself. Pretty sure the younger 2 will be doing the black runs.....

So much for their world expansion and cheap EV's.

Stay out of the box please #LetsGoOilers

Decided to check in on the #indy500 only to find it's raining....again.

#NHLJets Win. Just win.

This is the first time I have ever voted early for an election. Only reason I did was that our voting location is the worst. Has limited parking and is on a narrow street that is somewhat busy all day. It is also on the edge of our area, not in the middle like previous elections.

That goal by Hertl......
It was a good one.

I really need to get back on the working out bandwagon.

Watching the #whlgiants. Love the fact they are now streamed for free. Will still go to games live though. It’s a lot of fun for the family.

We have already decided that if there are tariffs on the Tacoma, we will wait it out or order a 4Runner. Even my mom, a die hard GM driver, bought a Civic for her last car.

Just realized, while waiting to order my new truck, we have not purchased a vehicle assembled in the US in 15 years. Last 2 were Canadian made and this one is made in Mexico (Toyota Tacoma). May still cancel it though if tariffs affect it due to parts. (1/2)

At this rate, they are going to run out of people to trade with.

A friend just texted to tell me the McBarge sank and the first thing I did was rush to @jmcelroy.bsky.social's feed for proof.

Went for a walk and they won. It really does work! #Canucks

Heading out the the Giants game tonight with the family. Looks like they are only a few seats away from a sellout for their last game of the season.

One of our downfalls in Canada is not teaching people how taxes and investments work. It’s incredible to hear people say they pay 50% tax and yet, have no understanding of how each tax bracket works. worst of all, they forget about deductions to lower what portion of your income gets taxed.
