LOLing in Manitoba healthcare worker at the scene in The Pitt where everyone is dismayed by paper charts and the fax machine 🙃.

I used yell at drivers all the time, but I noticed that it made me feel miserable. When I instead focus on noticing and acknowledging the good, I am a much happier and I hope it there is a positive effect in them too.

Hey parents, let’s normalize having our teenagers take public transit instead of driving them everywhere.

I seem to be missing the gene that makes people notice differences in those colour analysis videos. Maybe I got the cilantro soap gene instead of that one. Upside is I can wear whatever colour I enjoy instead of worrying if it’s right for me 🤷🏼‍♀️.

Also enjoyed along with my teenager! 👎👎👎 (😉) I have not read the book and didn’t know what to expect (other than a general idea that Ken goes to space to save the world). I did find it dragged a bit at times, but that probably had more to do with staying out past my bedtime.

Making KD for my kid and her friend while listening to my ‘97-2000 playlist has me feeling like a 14 year old babysitter.

When you embraced winter a little too hard and now spring is coming.

I always complained about having too many choices at Blockbuster and hated the decision-making process there, so you can imagine how I feel about the current state of movie selection.

Recently picked this one up on a recommendation from our local bookseller and my 11-yo daughter is loving it. She says it may just unseat The Bellwoods Game as her favourite book ever.

I personally find time changes to be no big deal, but if we ever abolish it, I want DST all year. I go to work/take my kids to daycare in darkness in the winter anyway. Would barely notice if the sun rose one hour later and we’d have the benefit of a tiny amount of daylight after school/work.

I have been known to yoink a tooth out of a sleeping child in this situation.

I was told there would be snow 😢

I hadn’t cried that hard for anything in recent years. I don’t know if I want to watch the movie.

Sliding on frozen water in various ways is my favourite thing to do ☺️

Just finished a book set mostly in Ethiopia and now desperately craving the food. Does anyone have a recommendation for the best #Winnipeg Ethiopian restaurant?

I went to a very small school, so my high school friends were also nursery school friends. They are almost more on the level of family since we grew up together. I get to see of 3 them regularly at our book club. 4 others I keep in touch with sporadicly.

“Mom, when you ski down the hills, you look like you don’t really know what you are doing”, is an example of the encouraging things my daughter says to me while we cross country ski.

Why anyone would actively choose to live in a place without winter is beyond me.

I’m someone who it is slightly better for. One bus instead of needing to transfer (with the trade-off of a longer walk). But overall not better as bus bunching still happens frequently and people being passed by because of crowding happens much more frequently.

I have been very inspired lately watching the olympians do all their winter sports. I forgot about the Jack Frost challenge though!

Sometimes I dream of keeping a stockpile of headphones in my backpack and passive aggressively handing them out to people on public transportation.

Tell me you watched a few skiing videos on instagram yesterday without telling me:

Hi from Winnipeg, I would honestly gladly switch back. I hate the slushy brown snow on the roads that happens above -10 and I’m not ready for any melting on the ski and ice trails until March!

Yes! Still one of my favourite movies (and soundtracks).
