We're home. I'm exhausted. The dogs were incredibly excited to see us. Milo had to go to vet while we were gone. That's a story for another day, but he's ok. I have to be back at the airport at 5am Sunday for work. Tight turnaround. Laundry, pack, and try to relax for 2 days is the priority.

I know I talked to mine many years ago when they were young. We need to teach our boys to be better, so our girls don't have to fear them.

Pool day today, and we got confirmation this afternoon that Ivy is officially trending in the right direction. I've been sent puppy pics each morning to wake up to. It was a good day. 😊 Wedding is tomorrow.

We made it! We also sat directly behind Fernando Pisani on the flight. Lol Ivy is doing better for now, I feel like I can breath. Commence vacation! 🐾🌴🍹

Ivy made it all night without any emergencies. I feel ever so slightly better the worst may be over and she's on the mend. Here we go.

Was up with Ivy every 2 hours last night. I'm so tired I can barely think. She's been able to make it 3 hours at a time today. Started a bland diet. I've never been less excited to go on vacation than I am right now. I have plans in place if she doesn't improve. I just need her to be okay. 😔

We must be leaving for my niece's wedding in Mexico Thursday morning, because Ivy's explosive 💩 started late this afternoon. 🙄 Sure hope we get a 24 hour miracle.

Guys, it's simple. Danielle Smith is just spending $130M to ask if AB wants to separate but also $4M advertising that she doesn't want us to separate but also the UCP president says she's neutral on separation but also she says she's not neutral on separation. What's so hard to understand?

Smith isn’t the ideologue her opponents portray her as, but she is a power-seeking opportunist

I've been thinking a lot about this latest #oilers move bringing on Formenton. I'm angry, I feel like I've gone through the stages of grief since it was announced, but more than anything, I'm angry. Apologies for the thread, I need to say a few things.

New lows seemingly hourly now from Bruce McAllister. He seems to be attempting to intimidate and silence credible critics of the UCP's overtly anti-immigrant referendum questions by engaging in demeaning and disrespectful attacks. It's Trumpian thug politics.
Disappointed but not surprised to see Duane waddling in here. It’s an easy one for him - cherry pick the ugliest possible reading of an issue and huff and puff some laurentian talking points as if he just discovered them. He’s entitled to his opinion, of course, but labelling these referendum questions “anti-immigrant” is lazy even by his standards.
Albertans have every right to weigh in on whether we want more control over the numbers, economic migrants first, and a wait before temporary residents tap the same health, education and social programs as citizens and permanent residents. You know, the generations of people who have built the province, and yes, the many respectful, hardworking, and thoughtful immigrants who came here the right way - before his idol Justin opened the borders to mass uncontrolled immigration. That’s not hate. That’s how you keep a welfare state from buckling.
If the big bad professor doesn’t support them, he’s free to say so. But calling them “anti-immigrant”? Sorry big guy - that’s not analysis. That’s just the slogan you brought from the rally.

Bessent's analogy is insulting, ridiculous, & stupid. Walking away from a deal that a bully is trying to impose is a quiet show of strength. We are not harassing or cajoling the US. We are ignoring their ridiculous trade offers and insults. There's no anger like that of a spurned and ignored bully.

I may have cleared the city out of these bamboo chew sticks. Ivy and Milo LOVE them! They keep them occupied, satiate Milo's teething, and they will actually spend quiet time together enjoying them. Best find!!

Precisely this. They're yearning for the mythical Alberta of their past, not the reality of the province they actually live in.

Doesn't matter what she does or does do in any circumstance. She's going to get re-elected anyway, and she knows it. That's our reality in AB.

This is the first time Ivy has let Milo hang out with her on "her" bed since he came home. It lasted longer than I thought it would, and he eventually pissed her off and ruined it....but it was a pretty big step nonetheless. 🐾💜💙
