I saw a picture of Square One today and it was bare. We still have quite a bit from last week. Today was the 5th snow day in 9 days I think! Last weekend:

So far not too bad thankfully or there will be some major drifting. It sure looks pretty tho!

One of the plants I repotted last weekend is LOVING its new digs. I swear it’s doubled in size.

I might have bit off too much today. I have wanted real greenery for the front of our restaurant since we went to Derbyshire for Christmas 2 years ago. I’m working away at making some garlands but it’s slow going! Needed a wee break.

Grand Champion WDE & the Royal this year. I don’t pay too much attention to cow show these days. This is just such a beautiful cow though. #teamdairy #rawf24

What are all these? And can I get rid of them so they don’t open every time I startup?!

We all need more cute pet pics. This is our new cat. He showed up 2 weeks ago and hasn’t left. He just brought us his 4th mouse.
Our dog is less than happy about him but so far they’re co-existing.

I’ve never worked somewhere as creative as my current workplace so today’s costumes were GREAT. Here’s our Mario Kart team! And shameless brag: we won!

My Halloween decor was on point this year and since I took an Instagram break I am sharing here!

Salmon swimming up river to spawn on the rocks under the Teeswater River in Paisley. Once they lay their eggs they die. Piles of fisherman around the last 2 weeks trying to catch the rainbow trout that follow the salmon to eat the eggs. Neat.

I immediately thought this looks like the logo of a PC party that embraces the environment. agcanada.com/daily/canada-p…#ontagag

My default has been to to go Twitter but I reallly don’t want to be there. Gonna actively try to post here more often.

And so I’ll share - I love a small town convenience store. Especially a Dutch-owned one. Picked up my dry cleaning & got some cheese!
