Mi’kmaq Hereditary Chief has lost ceremonial jacket & medals. This item has much sentimental value to him!

He is a fellow Mi’kmaq elder - could you please help spread the word?

Got my annual #flu & #covid shot yesterday. I have #hyperalgesia (hypersensitivity to #pain), but I remembered to numb the area with an ice pack beforehand & it helped a lot.

Arm is feeling bruised today, & I’m tired/headachy; so I’m resting up as much as possible.

#Montreal camera shop Photo Service to close after 89 years

“We were the pro store for #photography but we never managed to get out of that niche, though I tried with video, drones, binoculars, telescopes.”

(I remember shopping there when I took my photo courses back in the 80s)

The recent heavy snow caused power outages throughout southern #Quebec. At one point, over 250,000 households were without power! We can only hope that that #HydroQuebec are working on it; as it’s kinda cold to be without electricity - since so many folks use that for heating!

~ Remembrance Day ~ Lest We Forget ~
In memoriam:

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Shows a memorial wreath made of poppy flowers, with the text: “Remembrance day - Lest We Forget”

On the 11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month — we will remember them…

On this day, I honour my Grandfather, my Father, and several uncles who served.

I thank my many friends who have served with the Canadian Armed Forces in many capacities, both here at home and overseas. (Con’t)

So my wish for a lovely birthday cake was granted in spades by my Sweetheart! T’was a magnificent Praline Cake, topped with a macaron, a raspberry, a blueberry as well as a chocolate heart & pearls. Super rich and utterly delicious!
