Watching my favorite childhood movies with my 10yro is exhausting.
"Why is the phone on the wall?"
"Why is the TV on a table?"
"OMG, they're smoking inside?"
"What is a nun?"
"What is a mailroom?"
"The cars are so weird"

Did I finish the holiday cards I set out to? Yes.
Did I also go on a side quest in the middle of the holiday card stack? Yes.
See my feed for a short tutorial on updating the Montreal city app to get make sure you get the notifications for the new snow removal part of the app. #Adhd

Since the snow removal tracking is new to the 311 app, you need to check if app notifications are enabled on your phone, but you also need to go into the app itself.

I made a short tutorial to show you! #Montreal

Comme leur suivi du déneigement est nouveau sur l'appli 311, il faut vérifier si les notifications de l'appli sont autorisés sur vos téléphones, mais il faut aussi aussi aller dans l'application lui même.

J'ai fait un petit tutoriel pour vous monter! #Montreal #Montréal

Took my daughter and met up with a few dozen other parents, teachers and others at the Parc Mont-Royal to protest the CAQ government's school funding cuts.

Me to myself after having finally gotten to my front garden and cut the grass, trimmed back the raspberries, and lastly, after knowing that it needed to be done for a couple of years, put the weed wacker to the edges of the walkway.

I haven't been to a comedy show in ages. Feels good to be back amongst the grown-ups.

What if it turns out that Pete Hegseth was Gossip Girl this whole time?

A great video essay that is not getting the views it deserves. I started following Morgan Gold's farming YouTube channel a few years ago and have always appreciated his wit & humour.

This seperate channel is for video essays that go into great depth on important subjects. Highly recommend

Here's a great (though lengthy) discussion from December with Marc Carney and gives some great insight into the person running to be Prime Minister of Canada. #canpoli

Sitting here folding laundry and I keep having to stop myself from going on side quests.
Oh, I have to book those flight for the summer...
Oh, do I still have anything left on those gift cards I got for my birthday...
Oh, did I leave the washer door ajar...
Girl, sit down

Trying a new thing to make myself fold the laundry right away instead of waiting 7-10 business days.
I now dump the laundry in my bed which forces me to 1) make my bed, and 2) get everything folded and put away before I can lay down again. Is this an ADHD hack? Stay tuned

The snow has melted off the #Montreal bike paths. Kid & I had a serious cabin case of fever this weekend, so the ebike was charged up &, properly attired, we biked to school & work this morning.
My legs are sore and cheeks a little cold, but it felt sooooo good to be in the fresh air again!

Super interesting conversation with one of the McKinsey consultants that was brought in under CAN PM Harper in 2012.
The key points:
- Every ministry was participating in cutting 5-10%, but kept control
- They worked together to create efficiencies without reducing services

So sad to hear of David Lynch's passing. He was such a visionary.
Although I admire his surrealist works, it was The Straight Story that touched me the most, and ultimately stayed with me the longest.
