After multiple deployments this summer, I am finally back at the cabin for the first time since early August. Highlight of the day… I got my visit! 🦊

Deployed this August long weekend in support of TNRD and CRD residents setting up and managing a group lodging facility in PG. Thinking of the HUNDREDS of responders supporting #bcwildfires

Pelicans in the hood. Time on the dock with coffee and baileys and an episode of wild kingdom to start the day.

This was a big impact on my yesterday. Hoping for a better day today but waking for the day at 0330 is not setting me up well I fear.

This little duckling came right into my office this afternoon… 🦆 No signs of momma so it was put back into the brush by the ravine.

The ravens 🐦‍⬛ woke me at 425 to let me know Felicity 🦊 was visiting. Literally first thing I saw was this gal. I was in and out getting water, made coffee etc then we sat and watched the sun come up together. She touched my foot while I was sipping coffee. Cold nose she had. Hung for about an hour.

Ummm…WTAF?😳 #britishcolumbia, #canada we MUST do all we can to oppose this company. This is beyond a slippery slope having multiple US political/US military people on its board. Mining and defense often go hand in hand. #never51ststate novaredmining.com/news/secreta...

It feels quite uncomfortable to wish my husband a Happy Birthday. Yes, he shares the day with the big, fat, bloated, lunatic, lying, mentally unwell, orange, baboon baby down South. Anyhow, D, have a great day❣️ ⛳️ Please don’t hold it against me to exist in his sphere in this way. Ugh.

Off-call vacation at the cabin mode activated! Momma doe came to check me out as I sat on the dock…fawn(s) must be stashed next door. Listening to the multitude of birds and waterfowl.

These tiny babies filled my heart after it was crushed yesterday when I witnessed a bear was killed beside my house for simply existing along the river. Town sucks some days. Happy to be at the cabin today where we coexist happily and there are not the overreactions of yesterday.

…and he is officially a NVSS 2026 graduate! Thank you to Mrs Cross and Mr Young for providing a grad experience that worked for his needs. We are very grateful for your inclusion and look forward to the professional photos to come. This is a truly triumphant day, against many odds. Congrats. 💙💛

Overcame my fear/anxiety of this new beast on our steep property this morning. This is far from the xr200r I used as a young woman…somehow the thought of 4 wheels on the steep grade was scarier in advance to what I knew. The 1000cc engine contributed greatly, but #ididit ! #quad #cabinlife

Kara has loved and supported 🇨🇦 fiercely, so by proxy each and every one of us Canucks. She deserves all that love right back from fellow 🇨🇦 as she faces this chapter.

This young man is OFFICIALLY finished high school! Yesterday he made his Capstone presentation and is 100% complete his work and was given his grad hoodie. Sodelhti translates to “they honoured me” in Dakelh. A private crossing the stage on the 13th has been arranged by his inclusion team. 👨‍🎓

Little guy soccer is a hoot to watch. There is everything from somersaults to footie on the field at any given moment. Being grandma means I can now smile widely at these shenanigans that drove me batty as a mother ;)

Excited AND scared to death! Got the greenhouse finished setting up and put the first plants in. Tucked them in and hoping for the best. Have not set up the heater. That panic may come at 4 am 😬

First time trying #seedrls and I am fully converted!!! In about 4 square inches I grew about 25 Jalepeno peppers. Great root systems and even was able to re roll the extras I do not need. 🌱#northerngardener #northernbc #greenhousetime

My #autistic son is in the final stages of school. For the last two years he has been home due to lack of supports. Foods 12 is his last course for his Dogwood. This is today’s lab, a meat & veg meal. He injected chicken with butter sauce and used Indian spices on roasted veg. #yummy #learnathome 🇨🇦

Early this morning, I was driving downtown. The snow had stopped, it was still very dark, and the streetlights were all on. All the trees heavy with fluffy wet snow, on a completely fresh white snowy background. It was truly beautiful. Happy first day of Spring in the North! 🇨🇦

This is now done and dropped off. On its way to #TumblerRidge tomorrow. I hope it wraps a young girl in warmth, love and support. After our own much milder active shooter school lockdown a few years back, I can only imagine the level of trauma this neighbouring town is experiencing. Love to all. ❤️

Today is #RareDiseaseDay. As an individual who has three listed rare diseases, I urge all to invest in research to alleviate suffering and increase quality of life of millions with diseases that their low incidence means there is not money to be made by curing them. #IAmRare #PI #PH #TBM

Happy Valentine’s Day all! Thank you to our small village who has made what has become our annual “love getaway” to celebrate our anniversary possible. We are enjoying adult only time at the cabin and being grateful for our last 20 years married (23 together). Hope you all have a wonderful day.

My heart goes out to Tumbler Ridge families. This brings back horrible memories of our active shooting incident a few years back and our special needs child eloping from school and missing directly before. Worst couple hours of my life until he was located safe. Daughter and I were in the lockdown.

Today I took part in a class led by the very talented Gladys Michell at Quilter’s Corner. Thanks to Hilary for the invitation to join her today. I am so pleased with how this turned out and enjoyed Gladys’ teachings and stories of the matriarchs in her life throughout the afternoon. Mussi cho! ❤️🧵
