Wise words from the doctor last year, still valid today.

Thank you Robert DeNiro for saying what we’re all thinking, even in Canada.
🚨🚨HOLY SHIT‼️Robert De Niro just went scorched earth on “Dirty Donald” and his administration and it is delicious to watch. This is how you pushback on this fascist regime. Thank you calling out these anti-American fools for the invasive species that they are. Must watch🔥💥🔥

A short story on getting old:

Your metabolism arrives on tiptoe and slams the door when it leaves. Hearing the noise of the door, arthritis moves in.
Keep your body moving, even if it hurts.
The end.👵🏻

Cyclist collision?

Condolences to the cyclist & his family.

Moment of awesome:
When you’re at the tail end of making 13 dozen perogies & you have just enough filling to fill the last few pieces of dough.
Awesome!

Walked over & visited the spanky new downtown Edmonton O-day’min Park last night with the grands & can confirm they loved it.
Ftr, it was crawling with kids and the adjacent dog park was occupied the whole time too.
More of this, please.

Thinking of the good doctor & missing him @coffeeoutside.bsky.social this morning, two months today since he passed away unexpectedly.

I plunked “strong and free” into the anagram solver today and got,,,,wait for it… transgender (with 2 letters leftover) an F and an O.
Is Dani being super clever here or just plain mean that trans folk in Alberta ought to just eff off?
Just asking for an inclusive community-minded Albertan.

I know I’m new at yoga but it seems to me that walking barefoot across someone else’s mat is never acceptable behavior.
Ps, the perpetrator is NOT new to yoga so I’m thinking it may be the yoga equivalent of marking one’s territory?
