Most recently watched 'Douglas is Cancelled' (short series) on BritBox. Some interesting characters & few twists. Also the movie 'Swimming with Men' - movie- on BritBox. Saw 'Train Dreams' - movie - recently too. Excellent. And 'Coronation Girls' documentary - available free on TVO...

Vitamin D is winter magic.

I have to get out my gardening files & check my seed supplies too! Maybe a trip to the seed place next week with my gardening buddy. You have a grow light in the basement? I move one of mine down there in the fall - and plant a flat of salad greens in November. In a few weeks, harvesting...

I'm experimenting with 'winter sowing' this year - starting lots of native plants to add to my Sea Scout Community Pollinator Garden space. So curious to see how this works out!

Much of the info in the Toward 2035 plan has been fermenting for a while. If interested in truly understanding what it's about, reading thoughtfully through the Facilitator Guide (included in Gord's link) info is helpful. The UCCan has been actively (albeit perhaps quietly) supporting some...

Sorry to hear you needed some surgery Jayne - and that aftermath of the procedure was so nasty. Hopefully healing now at home. Sending hugs.

"The Assembly" - on CBC wherein a group of neurodivergent individuals are free to ask the episode guest (often a celebrity) any questions that are on their mind. I've taped a few episodes of this and listened while knitting. Along a similar line - "You Can't Ask That" - Canadian version on...

Following up on the AA comments - as I have a few friends who are involved with AA & its related groups, we've had some chats about this as I wondered about the use of 'God' language and how multiculturalism might be accommodated. Yes, the founders of AA came from a Christian background...

Soundls like an interesting conversation with your coffee today Kimmio. I doubt she felt badly - she did indicate you could decline. It's very respectful to ask first - I've encountered that too.

By that measure - for some of us life will be eternal!! :p

Just want to say Thank You to whoever (Mendalla?) added a hug emoji for us. Lots of need for those important hugs these days.
