Our facility started the vaccines for staff on Wednesday. Only doing Wednesday’s throughout the fall. I got mine right away. Not many other people mentioned they got theirs. Not sure why there’s a lack of interest right now. I feel it’s going to be a busy viral season this year.

Our ERs are full and wait times are long, even rurally right now. With the measles outbreak earlier this year and its immune compromised effects, I feel a bad viral season approaching. This isn’t good. Please get your seasonal flu, covid, and any other vaccines you’re due for. Thanks!

If it’s just a fracture, I think it should be ok. Tendon issues good be trouble. Hopefully it’s just a splint after I see the plastic surgeon on Monday. Hard to ride my bike with this thing on

Went for a run today with my dogs this eve and now I’m in ER with a broken finger. Got caught in the one dog’s harness while we were harassed by an off leash dog. My girl twists, finger goes snap. 70lbs of snaky dog do that. My girls were leashed. If your dog has no recall, then keep it on leash.

Great, it looks like pertussis is around again. Whoop, whoop! If only there was something that could prevent it that is safe, easily available, and free. SMH

Getting on a new plane in 45min. Fingers crossed.

Craig Doell @craigdoell.bsky.social · 20/08/2026
So the issue cannot be resolved and we will be deplaning shortly. Hopefully onto another one. My luck says no to that. There must be snakes on this plane. Ugh

The toddlers are all very restless right now and there’s a lot of them on this flight. 2.5 hrs of going nowhere. They’re just the first to crack. Pretty sure someone is going to release the Karen soon.

Spoke too soon. We were about to take off and when we went over a bump on the way to the runway. The intercom stopped working after the bump Back to the gate. Again. Very unhappy WestJet passengers right now

After 1.5 hrs it looks like we’re finally taking off. Yay

Craig Doell @craigdoell.bsky.social · 20/08/2026
Plane is fixed! Yay! We need more fuel now because we idled too long. Boo!

Thank goodness for emergency pop tarts. Eating them and preventing starvation on the tarmac is being proactive.

Craig Doell @craigdoell.bsky.social · 20/08/2026
That’s a good reason to switch planes. Something is wrong with the plane intercom which the pilot just told us over the intercom

Craig Doell @craigdoell.bsky.social · 20/08/2026
Great. Now we’re back at the gate. Toddler in front says “something is wrong with this plane”. The kid ain’t lying.

On our plane sitting in the tarmac for 20 min waiting to go back to Wpg from Halifax. Flight here was delayed 1.5 hrs to switch planes. Now an intercom or something isn’t working. Toddler in the seat in front of me and behind me. Neither of them are happy right now. I dont have good plane luck.

We are on Cape Breton Island and had supper at the Coastal restaurant in Ingonish Beach. This is The Big Lebowski. 12 oz beef patty stuffed with mushrooms and cheese, slathered in Ringer sauce. Paired with a giant 20oz IPA and this boy is done for the evening.

Halifax flight is Friday for us. If it’s cancelled, we aren’t going to try and make it work. Too expensive and too complicated. It sucks, but collective bargaining is important and I hope they can come to an agreement. I just won’t be telling work I’m not on the east coast.

I am not going back to work for 3 weeks and my phone is set to do not disturb. After working 19hrs straight until I left work yesterday, it may take all 3 weeks to feel normal again. Our healthcare system is not healthy.

As a person who treated hundreds of critically ill covid pts, it will haunt me until the end of my days that misinformation had pts, prior to intubation, insist that we do not vaccinate when putting them “under”. For some, their last words. That was their last conscious thought. Insane

In Claresholm AB for a gravel road bicycle race tomorrow. Just had the biggest cinnamon bun I’ve ever seen. Yes, that is an ice cream scoop of cream cheese frosting on the top of it. #carbloading

Housework is done. Gonna try to stay awake for another 2 hours. Then bed

Here’s how my last day went. Didn’t see my own bed for 31 hrs and spent 24 of those hrs at work or travelling back and forth. Got into bed finally at 1:30 pm today, woke up at 4, feeling like how Keith Richards looks, caught the replays of F1, and now trying to get motivated to do housework. Ugh

Parallel to healthcare. New staff get incentives and cash for recruitment. Long serving employees get donuts from time to time for retention. Maybe pizza once in awhile.
