i just did a bit of the same ... at least she tends to poop in the same place over and over, but oye.

a garden gnome buried up to his neck in snow.

upon closer inspection, the beard is free!

the gnome's nose is now free.

a woman is sitting on a couch and saying by all means move at a glacial pace you know how that thrills me ALT: a woman is sitting on a couch and saying by all means move at a glacial pace you know how that thrills me

me, waiting for a video to upload this morning.

it's just burning through the fog here ... i can't wait to have all the windows open this afternoon!

growing up, we had a carpeted kitchen and bathroom. i have no idea why.

oh, going from a chihuahua to a doodle might come close to that, too. i'm a little scared!

the poor guy ...he's been buried for ages, but i think we might see his full face today.

witchcraft!!!! my backyard has a long way to go, but the snow has melted a lot ... and with 13c today, i imagine it'll shrink a bunch more!

it totally could ... i tend to think it's residue from the stress caused by her dementia ... but i like your interpretation better, and will try to slow down and listen. :)

i totally should have done that with the gnome ... poor dude hasn't seen light in weeks, but this morning his eyes are free!

update … the gnome’s ear is now visible.

i have recurring dreams about my mom and one of them includes her forgetting to check the mailbox and i have to sort a pile of envelopes. anyway, i had that dream for the first time in ages last night.

i can see the top of my garden gnome’s hat for the first time in ages.

this is @ashtonal.bsky.social’s fantastic kid’s honours project at dal!

this is why i hate the time change. it was lovely and bright when i woke up yesterday.

🩷 for the rally … not for being glutened!

that’s amazing! i hope your girls were happy with their speeches!

it really is. i try not to get too hung up on comparisons, and look at each speech separately rather than one being better than another. but it’s tough!

as a naturally extremely judgy human, i am surprisingly generous when it comes to youth public speaking. no need to crush spirits on a saturday morning. 😂

they are … they have junior, intermediate and senior levels, and some of the juniors are so wee … i’d guess 10 years up to 21. it’s really impressive.

one of the speakers i judged today, i judged 3 years ago when he was a junior and it was cool to see how he’s improved and grown more comfortable.

lol! it might have been easier!

i hope it goes well! it was definitely a packed morning … we judged 18 intermediate and seniors, plus juniors and divert! my brain is full!

i’m spending the morning judging children.

judging a 4h speaking competition that is!

is there anything better than being tucked into your bed with a dog’s chin resting on your leg?

that’s just insane … i remember you telling me and @ashtonal.bsky.social about them and how much they look after in town.

i swear i don’t know a single person who isn’t somehow affected by all of this bullshit.

he’s probably playing there later that night.

not for $64! in this economy? that’s far past my “let’s go out of curiosity” threshold! 😂

it’s why they pay me the mediocre bucks!

well, the price has dropped to $349k … it’s a steal!
