Pretty choked at CHEK TV at the sloppy camera coverage of the truck parade. My next door neighbour went all the way from Parksville but we didn’t even get to see them after all the work Alberni Towing put in to decorate their truck. Switching cameras meant trucks didn’t get seen. Grrr.

New version of vishing call this morning. Now they don’t use a company name, only ‘Security Department’. Would probably make a bigger impact if they didn’t call at 6 am. Nah, it wouldn’t.

Pretty disgusted. My neighbours (tested covid+ yesterday) were just at #Nanaimo Home Depot renting a van. They’ll be going into someone’s #Parksville home later to get a sofa. Betting they won’t tell the sellers nor wear a mask. They won’t ever be allowed inside my home again. I can’t trust them.

@earthox.bsky.social Just to let you know that Roland’s stroller is rolling again. Tango from a few doors up the street is using it now. Congestive heart failure isn’t stopping him from peeing in the park across from city hall.

Aw crap. Extensive forest fire smoke which rolled into Parksville last night and rolled back out just before noon today is rolling back in, even as it starts to rain. How hard does it have to rain to cut through the stench? Bring on the deluge!

@earthox.bsky.social The rain can’t come soon enough. I can’t believe how quickly the smoke came in last night. Local purple air monitor says it has dropped by about 20% since 6 am but frankly it’s like standing next to a burn pile instead of in a burn pile. Hope you are able to stay inside.

Put in an offer on a mobile home recently whose home inspection proved that not only was this pig heavily lipsticked, but wearing full body makeup, a sparkly dress & imitation Jimmy Choo shoes. I wouldn’t take possession of it if they paid me to take it off their hands.

Just had a Zoom meeting with my older sister, who was adopted out when my mother was 17. She’s 71 now but I swear our talk (our FIRST talk) was just as though we’d always known each other. She & hers are truly our family!

Most amazing call this morning from an older half-sister that was given away or adoption in 1954. Our family has suddenly grown exponentially. My mother is over the moon - grandkids! And great grandkids! We have been looking for each other for about 20 years. Such joy in our house!

Must have been about 50 people in line waiting to vote at our polling station at 7 am this morning. This will be one LONG day for poll workers. We thanked them profusely when we early voted.

Damn. Seems the latch button on our well-used toaster oven has finally died, holding our chicken legs hostage. Thinking I’ll have to pry the damn thing open or just send the legs to the recycling centre with the oven.

My mother has deemed me certifiable after I ordered a giant pile of rocks to landscape our yard. Seems I have no idea how much 6 yards of river rocks is (way more than I need, it seems). Thank goodness my next door neighbours allowed me to dump them on their front lawn for now. Hope they’re patient.

Seems we have a spirit hanging around the house. It used to annoy Lizzie the dog for a few weeks but now has started knocking on bedroom doors at about 4 am to piss off the humans. Not impressed with its sense of haha. Time to do a house cleanse & get it to leave.

I really hate spring’s daylight saving time change. To make it less traumatic for me, I’ve been getting up earlier and earlier for the last 2 weeks. Found myself up at 5 am this morning. So effing bleary even coffee doesn’t help. Please end this madness, powers that be.

Remember Joe and Molson’s “I Am Canadian” beer commercial from 2000? Well he’s back, using his real name, which is Jeff Douglas, meeting the moment for all of us as we try to cope with life in 2025. Here’s the new riff, called ‘We Are Canadian’. It’s not about beer! 🇨🇦❤️🍁 Enjoy! youtu.be/1LzhCLzfJFg

After days of rain and wind, we have been blessed with a fabulous sunset. Hope this bodes well for tomorrow.

Saw a Tesla for sale this morning. Parked on a little-used dead end street behind a nursing home, I’m assuming the owner is afraid of leaving it where people will see it and vandalize it. Hoping he’s not expecting a fast sale.

Heard around that the Philippine Mars water bomber might be headed out from its home on Vancouver Island’s Sproat Lake toward California today. Keeping one ear open for the low rumble of an airborne engine coming overhead. Sad this is the last Mars here.

I’m beginning to see a pattern of snow on Vancouver Island corresponding to specialist appointments for my elderly Mom. If she has to drive into Nanaimo to see a doctor, it starts snowing a few days beforehand. Every effing time.

Going through my cupboards bit by bit to figure out which products come from south of the border. Hoping I can find a suitable Canadian alternative until the goofy orange shitgibbon changes his tactics. May his rich oligarch buddies notice a reduction in sales and profits.

A bit of snow on the ground this morning so a sweater and boots were called for. This is Sweetie, nicknamed Jingles Twinklesnow in his cold weather gear. Doesn’t look impressed, does he. Nope, not one bit.

Get a load of the codswallop that I found on my front porch yesterday. 12 pages of opinions & half-truths presented as facts as well as an internet source for ivermectin with a $10 coupon on 1st order. Best thing about it is it fits the bottom of my bird cage perfectly. Won’t be subscribing.

Wonder if my subconscious is trying to tell me something. Horribly frustrating dream of trying to find the office of a psychologist to help me with my anxieties. His address didn’t seem to exist on the street & couldn’t find anyone that could help. Blue sky is a blessing this morning.

Sounds like the rain is picking up, as is the wind. I expect my dog walking companion to call in the next 20 minutes to bow out gracefully. Seems unfair to expect him to walk in the rain since he walks one of MY dogs.

Took 4 years to get my Korean meat dog to cross the highway to the beach. Today we walked along the edge of the ocean. She seemed in awe at the expanse of water and sand after growing up in a kennel. Betting the next trip will be easier. How long before her ears perk up at the word “beach”?

Please stop talking to me about American politics. I live in Canada, where our government is run by polar bears and maple syrup. Way less corrupt.
