Hey, does anyone know what the Rideau River water levels are currently at between Poonamalie lock station and Smiths Falls?

Looks like this weekend is shaping up to be a great one for kayaking. But where to go?

All right, I'm getting up.

Why not visit the lovely little town of Arnprior next Saturday and make it a destination? I'll be at their wonderful library for an event with THREE book clubs (open to the public) to talk about THE BONE-FINDER! They would like you to register, though, so that they know how many people to expect.

You too, Karen.

DW is at yoga so there's nothing pressing, though we'll need to go grocery shopping sometime this morning.

The Roman baths in the town of Bath, England. An open-air area below street level shows pea-green water with visitors walking around the pool's edge. At street level, a cathedral reminds us of another period in England's history. This image is from a scanned photograph and digitally cleaned up. It was captured in 1991 with a Minolta X-700.

I still haven't gotten out of bed. I slept badly again last night so I don't have much motivation.

G'morning, folks. How are you now?

It's one of those slow-moving Saturdays but we don't have to be running at full speed all the time.

Have a great day and make sure you let your friends and family know how much you love them. Life is short.

Be awesome!

I'm so glad that you shared part of your day with me. You're awesome.

G'night, folks. Sleep well.

Tell him to come out, regardless of whether he's written something or not.

DW and I are watching 'Cheers' and I feel so honoured to have actually shared a beer with George Wendt. Hard to believe this episode is more than 40 years old.

Thanks. I hope you get relief from your arthritis. I know that my pain tries very hard to control my mood, so I try to stay positive.

Take care, my friend.

She is looking at the camera as though she is checking its settings or at an image on the rear display. This black-and-white photo was taken in a studio with Dutch model Fredau.

Mine aren't torn. I have osteoarthritis in one and we're trying to figure out why the other causes me so much pain.

Thanks, Karen. One way or another, I'm going to solve the problem with my shoulders.

Stay awesome, Megann. Thank you!

G'morning, folks. How are you now?

Last night was the first in months where I slept right through the night. Mind you, I was loaded up on enough pain meds to take down a horse but I'll take my win.

I hope your day is fantastic. Be awesome!

I attended two writer's groups today and I'm mentally exhausted. I'm a bit of a social introvert so it taxes me to be around strangers.

I hope your day brought you joy. You're awesome.

G'night, folks. Sleep well.

G'morning, folks. How are you now?

It's going to be a great day. How do I know? Because you're here.

Enjoy your day and be awesome!

How was your day? I'm thankful for you being here.

I went to a karaoke night and managed to get six songs in. Someone asked me if I was a professional singer. Maybe I missed my calling?

G'night, folks. Sleep well.

I just found out that Kid 2 and her band are coming to Ottawa on December 12 to perform at Overflow Brewing.

I'll be performing there tonight for karaoke.

It'll be great to finally see her perform again. I've only seen video of her band and they're great.

A long exposure of a city on the far side of a river provides a glow upon the night sky. Lights are reflected on the water from far away. Far overhead, some stars poke through the light pollution of the city lights. A grassy river bank lies in the foreground.

Best Fit rossbrownfoot.blogspot.com/2025/10/best.... Head hunters need to realize that job fits work both ways. In addition to determining if a person is the best candidate for a company, they need to assure the candidate that the company is the best fit for them.

G'morning, folks. How are you now?

Let's make today awesome. Have a great one.

It's so nice to have you here. I hope you know how special you are.

G'night, folks. Sleep well.
