MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 08/08/2025After a few years of being a landlord, I ended up selling since the rents did not cover the cost of ongoing maintenance, repairs, taxes, insurance, etc. My tenants were upset because they said I was such a good landlord. One cried. Then I overhead someone say “landlords are scummy.” I give up. 000
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 04/08/2025Canadian here. This is what’s going on in our town grocery store. I have never felt more patriotic. 030
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 13/07/2025I keep telling myself that every day above ground is a day full of possibilities. 070
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 11/06/2025Driving through the Canadian Prairies and heading home to BC…smoke was so bad the sun, when you could see it, turned red. 051
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 21/04/2025Enjoying my birthday with the family. Beach fire season is officially underway on Vancouver Island, BC. (Canada). 160
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 06/04/2025Walked up to the community centre for some spiritual wellness. I saw a piece of wood on a log that looked like a little dog (smack dab in the centre of the photo). Still feeling nervous about what fresh hell will hit the fan tomorrow morning. 010
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 22/03/2025My family came to Canada when I was an infant 65 years ago. Even though I am a Canadian citizen, I’m afraid to travel to the US because I have a non-wasp name. My son also is afraid to go there as he has tattoos (a wolf in the woods). Never did I ever expect to feel like this. 230
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 08/02/2025Tell me you’re at a rink without telling me you’re at a rink. 😂 020
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 22/01/2025I’m having a holiday and visiting family in Costa Rica. Here’s the view on our way to a local soccer game. Judging by the motorcycle parking lot were probably more people in attendance than watched the inauguration. 😂 030
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 20/01/2025Visiting family in Costa Rica and I can’t get over all the beautiful flowers just growing wild. Okay there are also bugs. Big ones. But there seem to be as many flowers. 020
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 19/01/2025My sister saw this when walking the dog. Gave me a chuckle. 081
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 31/12/2024My New Year’s Eve plan. Candy for the body, candy for the brain. 170
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 30/12/2024I was planning to go for an am walk but there was a cougar and a bear sighting last night so maybe not. 🙁 140
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 29/12/2024These wonderful driftwood installations, by Alex Witcombe, are all over Campbell River, BC (that’s in Canada). 081
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 28/12/2024If Winnie the Pooh lived on Vancouver Island, I think this would be his Thoughtful Spot. 1120
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 25/12/2024Greetings to the Bluesky community from the west coast of Canada. May 2025 not be the sh*tshow we fear. 1213
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 21/12/2024Went for a short hike yesterday to Myra Falls. I’ve moved back to Vancouver Island and despite visiting over the years, there are still so many places left to discover. 080
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 18/12/2024Popped into town for groceries and had to snap this on the way home. 081
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 18/12/2024This day back in 2020. Quick shout out to the people who made it tolerable (plus my husband who is making dinner). Let’s remember those who didn’t make it. 040
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 17/12/2024Going to the airport in a couple of hours to pick up my son who is home for the holidays. On the one hand, so happy, but on the other feeling sorrow for the parents of the children killed in current and all school shootings for whom the holidays will never be the same. 051
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 16/12/2024Getting ready to do my Biology Final. It’s 2.5 hours. I’ll be lucky off I pass. My 64 year old rain brain cannot hold 21 lectures worth of data. 120
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 12/12/2024Saw this on my walk. Any ideas what the thinking here might be? 251
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 07/12/2024On the home stretch to BC after our latest cross country trip. When I see the mountains I start to relax. 040
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 06/12/2024This is washroom sign at the ferry terminal on the little Canadian West Coast island I visit frequently. 1185
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 05/12/2024Watching a cyclone bomb that hit our beach last week here on the pacific west coast of Canada. Stay tuned for more exciting things to do when you retire. 020
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 03/12/2024This is the sky out my front door this morning. I think God is telling me I should get off my @ss and get outside. 260
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 02/12/2024We are well on our way to self sufficiency. Ok maybe not, but my husband ‘harvested’ potatoes he grew from ones he planted from left over super market potatoes that had sprouted in the cupboard. So proud of him. Stay tuned for other exiting things to do when you retire. 030
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 01/12/2024My biggest environmental vice is that in this retirement year I’ve had to fly more than in all my previous years put together. I don’t know how many more trips I have left, but this view, from my window seat of the city below me, always makes me realize how many of us there are. 001
MHTammi @mhtwrites.bsky.social · 01/12/2024Went on the first helicopter ride of my life from Nanaimo to Vancouver. I was able to take this photo of Lions Gate Bridge. I also saw a humpback whale😊 020
