My social media is filled with artists announcing that they are suspending shipments to the US when the de minimis tariff exemptions are removed August 29.

This is devastating for a lot of small businesses. Canadian artists should find artworks still exempt from tariffs (in accordance with CUSMA)

Thank you.I think he’ll need a while but will recover.

Thank you. I think he’s going to be okay but it’s absolutely too much emotion for one day. My SIL said she thought I would need a break so she made my other brother tell Mom. But the fact that she can be calm and thoughtful is encouraging.

Things always seems to happen that all at once.

Had to call my Dad and let him know and that I will keep him updated and that Thanksgiving is off.

Well fuck, I posted too soon.

My sister in law just contacted me from the hospital trauma centre. My brother has been in a serious bike accident. I think he’s going to be okay but it’s bad. She was coincidentally driving by and went with him in the ambulance.

I have successfully moved my mother into the home. It seems very nice. Her sale of her townhouse has been finalized. And now, I need a nap!

I will make pumpkin pie but otherwise I plan to do a lot of nothing this Thanksgiving weekend. My brother is making a turkey and I am going to take it easy!
