December 21 is the winter solstice, which means that in the Northern Hemisphere:

- The path of the Sun is farthest south in the sky
- The Sun travels the shortest path, giving the day the least daylight and the longest night
- Things can only get lighter from here

I am appreciating a relaxing Sunday afternoon of reflection while listening to In Concert with Paolo Pietropaolo on CBC Music. His selection of songs invites us to accept the cold, snowy winter months while enjoying colourful lights and warmth. #Winter #MusicTherapy

This #Caturday post is the result of my getting sentimental about the old Tabby after my daughter requested some photos to use for a memorial to her old cat. 🐈🥹🤗 My own collection seems a bit obsessive now 😅

I got a good workout this afternoon after visiting a dear friend, then trudging along unplowed back streets to the library and a quick grocery run. #Winter #SnowGlobe #Libraries The movement and fresh air did much good.

Good one, God. They will do anything to distract from releasing the Trumpstein files. Now do something! A Big Mac heart attack, a "stroke" of stable genius... Do something!! Thanks in advance.
Marco Rubio ordered diplomats to switch from Calibri font back to Times New Roman. But let's be honest, this is a Comic Sans administration.

When your neighbourhood hydro cuts out at 8:23 p.m. and may not come back until early morning, you might as well brush your teeth and go to bed. Bundle up. Stay safe. Sweet dreams.

Excellent interview. Timely. Learn to see the patterns. I hope those researchers are covered for talk therapy coming out of a dark part of history.

For my Sunday reflection activity, I am combing through my copy of the New Testament and online sources for reference to Jesus' teachings about protecting #children. Seems timely appropriate. Are there any good #Christian researchers to help sort out different translations & versions of the #Bible?

It was a good Saturday lunch visit at Aquatopia, just outside Ottawa. I enjoyed the calming greenery, #RotaryClub fellowship and conversations... Except for the waterfalls... their ambient sound became disruptive at times. I would love to visit again. I needed this after a challenging week.

WTAF !! So tired of greedy, petty, corrupt men. Needs better governance. And balls.
Trump has reportedly been in conversation with Paramount and his billionaire ally Larry Ellison about a potential takeover of CNN that would include firing journalists he dislikes.

Billionaire control of the media is a danger to us all.

Frosty tree branches and starlings enhanced my sombre errands run today. It was beautiful and refreshing. I got my recent vaccination and groceries. For the first time in years, i didn't have to shop for pet food.

Watching The Assembly on @cbcgem.bsky.social

Howie Mandel was forthcoming about his OCD. Cute and funny people on the spectrum interviewing him.

Touching and honest 🤗
Looking forward to more episodes.
