Just checking the outlook for Wednesday/Thurs now and I see that system is forecast at about 46cm now!

Lots of at-or-above zero temps though, so maybe it'll melt as it goes along? Depends on the rate tho, and I suspect it'll be pretty intensive if we get that much over that short a period.

This day. Already.

Another 🇨🇦 house we wanted to see, already sold. Then take the damn listing down. That's happened 2x in 2 days.

Roofer supposed to fix leak at our Calif. home for sale this wkend. Supposed to pour🌧️ so he'd have to cancel, we;d have to put hold on house; coming today to see if he can do it. Sigh. Did I mention we discovered he's a major Trumpy? We noticed 2 stickers on his truck. I wanted to fire him but can't rt now

Alright y'all, whenever I see something funny, I save it to show you all, but then I forget, so now I have a small backlog. So, here's a couple of things to give you a chuckle, and feel free to share a couple of your own if you have them!

Why would a rich famous guy marry a 34 year old woman? If you started immediately you MIGHT be able to have two kids. And she’s publicly had sex with a ton of guys. Despite her wealth she’s very low quality for any successful male. Just seems weird and almost like he’s a L= Why would a successful man want a middle aged woman who’s always on tour? Is it...could it be...because he’s gay? Underneath all that nonsense is a lovely picture of Taylor Swift mentioning that she's 34
There's two kids in the pool with their mother one is being held up by the mother and it says Horny, the other is next to them struggling to swim and it says Hungry, underneath that is a skeleton under water that says Happy

#Ottawa just had its shallowest February since February 1980. Mean snow depth was just 9 cm. #YowWx #OttWeather

so, what am getting from Canadians on Mastodon is that Stephen Harper went from Prime Minister to Bond Villain. or was he a Bond villain that got to be Prime Minister?

Grackles amazes me. This feeder is set so that birds of a certain weight can’t get the seed. The grackle has learned to land, move to the side & very gently lean for the seed. I’ve watched them figure this out. Did I mention we’ve had an one legged Grackle nest near us for the last 3 yrs? Her name is Peggy but we call her Pegs for short. Hopefully she’ll return this year. Grackles are metal birds! 😁#grackles #birds #featheredfriends

Good morning and Happy Tuesday!

It’s a beautiful morning in #Ottawa and it feels like spring is coming with the return of the Geese and the sounds of the birds.

I also got to enjoy the pretty pink sunrise with my sunrise walk buddy.

Have a great day!

#Mulroney was also guilty of the classic #GlassCliff treatment of Kim Campbell.

He simultaneously set a prominent woman up for abject failure, and robbed anyone of the opportunity to be the celebrated and successful first female prime minister of Canada in the future.

He gave misogynists a generation worth of opportunities to say "well we tried a woman once, and we saw how that worked out."

The preferred human is ill: she has finally succumbed to Covid19 because she abandoned me by leaving the house the other day. I did tell her that abandoning me was a terrible idea, but she didn't listen.

I am concerned she will pop joints out with all the coughing, but I am also upset by all the coughing, so I am staring at her, while also keeping my distance.

Did I mention the unacceptable levels of coughing?

Colin is in almost the exact same pose as in the previous picture, but this time, he is staring while sitting on a cardboard scratcher.

"I am so sick of #DougFord's online gaming ads. Every time I put on a podcast or open social media it's all I see and hear. It's like #Ontario under Premier Ford is one giant casino with all of the broken dreams, drug problems, depression, anxiety and poverty that come with gambling."

Doug Ford legalized online gaming in 2022 & the largest casino in Canada is located in the premier's riding.

Had to buy a new dryer the other day. Yesterday the guy called to let me know when they are coming to deliver. I commented on how sick he sounded. Apparently the day after we saw him he came down with an awful cold. He complained that there’s a lot of people who walk in the store. Not one employee had a mask on and every one of them looked at us weird because we did. Unbelievable that people are still this naive when it comes to COVID. #WearAMask #CovidIsNotOver #Ignorance

Dear Canadians. Salt clears ice from your sidewalk by lowering the meltpoint of the ice. It is not meant to be applied like grit and doesn’t work below -10C. It only takes a mug per 10 sidewalk squares. Apply more and you’ll degrade municipal infrastructure and contaminate groundwater unnecessarily.

Sidewalk with thick crust of salt.
