Knitting by the woodstove, tending feeders and scattering seed for feathered creatures, walks on the trail at sunrise, in wonder as our world pendulum swings off its center.

Swatching and trying out the “wildflower knot” stitch. I think I got the hang of it on the last row, it’s cute!

I did it! I finished all my work! I don’t have to work again until Friday morning. This might be the longest stretch of actual time off I’ve had in years! YAY. Happy Christmas to you!

I don't know if the reputation of the US amongst allies can ever be recovered, regardless of who is in the White House or who controls Congress.

President Farquaad needs to get ahold of himself and read that pesky document he swore an oath to defend.

Thrilled to announce a new PhD from the lab, Dr. Sarah Walker!

A well-deserved congratulations on a successful defense last week! The amazing work speaks for itself:

It turns out Lotus is too polite to just jam her head in the gift bag to get treats.

Soon we’re all going to be penalized for speaking unkind words about the führer and liberals — the resistance will be labeled as “Enemies of the State” and become National Security Threats. They’re going to take away our voices if we don’t stop them.

Wip Wednesday!

Here are my Christmas Eve knitting wips, one blanket that appears to be rather festive. And one sock that I knit for DnD, I want to get it to the half way point to make it easier for knitting tomorrow and Saturday.

I hope the next couple of days treat you kindly.

I am trying to decide why I get annoyed by "try this American recipe" whenever I do Newfoundland food posts. My theories are:

1. It is an American butting in yet again
or
2. I'm sensitive about the Canadian way of dismissing NL outside of "do the accent"

Then I decided it could be both 🤔

I swear Hoekstra only says this rubbish in order to generate press coverage he can show Trump to prove he’s doing his job needling the Canadians. There’s a way we could cut him off at the knees. Don’t give him the coverage in the first place.
U.S. envoy closely eyes Canada defence spending; says NATO about collective defence
The American ambassador to Canada is closely watching as Ottawa shapes its defence budget, but says the U.S. will not dictate what the Canadian government must spend.

CBS is now state run media. Killing a story, then lying about the justification, is the death of integrity.

Mr Cuban,

I just wanted to quickly thank you. My husband has XXXX cancer, a rare gastrointestinal cancer. We are between insurance right now and when we went to pick it up we were informed it was $29,000. We were able to get it from CostPlus for $990. Thank you for saving my husband's life.

Ok, 5th time is the charm. Thrilled with the edge from casting on. Daisy chain onto the needle is the way I need to go from now on. I was so proud & giddy that I called my mom to tell her. She taught me the looping on method when I was 16. She was pleased I found this method on my own.

Happy Christmas Eve! Today's sunrise was a perfect visual articulation of "all is calm; all is bright." A beautiful sunrise bathed an ocean that was as peaceful and quiet as a pond. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!

The President should be taken into custody immediately. But so should the people who would have to do that.

We heard we had to be xtra good cattos if we expected presents from Santa Catto. Tomorrow is the day pals. Open presents. Then back to making mischief. Good, maybe a little bad, mischief. Thinking about you all. Wish the best holidays ever for you. You deserve that. Family sends love & hugs 🕯️🌲♥️

If I decided it was too much bother to clean my house so I moved into an igloo in Antarctica for the rest of my life, you'd think I was awful stupid.
Tech bros deciding they'd lose too much profit if they stopped destroying the Earth because they can move to Mars someday is even stupider.

By all rhyme or reason, Donald Trump should not politically or legally survive this. But until Congressional Republicans break, he will.

After buying it for $18.8 billion, Walgreens' new private equity owner has eliminated paid holidays for all hourly workers on Christmas and New Year's.

Last year, Walgreens had a CEO-to-Worker pay gap of 410 to 1.

Corporate greed that would make even Scrooge blush.
