Hope you enjoyed these! I want to put them in the washroom, but hubby doesn’t think bathrooms have paintings/ pics!
How about your house? Is your bathroom pimped to the max!? 😁 @ Calgary, Alberta

One day of smoke had [southern] Alberta like: “so... this is end of days, right?”...”oh, ya. It’s 100% the apocalypse...” 😷😷😵😵

And I’ll admit to being one of them! 😳 oh how we take our clean mountain/ prairie air for granted!! And the men & women fighting the fires!! 👩‍🚒👨‍🚒🙌👏👏
•
And we had one day vs. being evacuated/ houses burning down!
•
•
Let’s not blame the province’s climate change platform (it was really dry in the North, they didn’t get the same rain/ snow, yadda yadda) and instead find out how to help the evacuees?!?!

Love supporting a good cause! 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Hat Not Hate &
would love ***25,000 BLUE HATS*** by August 1, 2019, to raise awareness for bullying! 😲😲😲💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
I jumped onto for some new/ free patterns and lo! 5 hats were born.
(How are they not on here?! Follow me there: Svobodalicious for the patterns I used!! www.ravelry.com )
has more info! Even Mr. T pities the fools who... like bullies? (Idk, kinda lost it there... 😬)
Good luck you guys! Bullies sucked in the ‘80’s & ‘90’s, and that was BEFORE social media/ the internet!! 🤯🥰🥰🥰

Have joined a book club ( ) bringing liberals & conservatives together to figure out this 🌎wide gap that’s ending the world as we know it. Because else can we do?!


The 1st dare (?) was for me to a) buy ‘s latest (13th!) book Addicted to Outrage, and b) make me read it. 😒😪

Beck is a [FOX] right-wing alarmist, and even though he acknowledges his role in the current state of the USA, his writing is peppered with hyperbolic statements (e.g. “half-born abortion”) and apparently no citations are required!! 🤯*grumble mumble*

But whatever. I’m game! I’m up to the challenge!

I’m tired of avoiding political talk with friends & family because of the [quietly] simmering outrage that everyone’s feeling. And the whole 🌎 sucks right now! (Even 🇨🇦! I know!!) So I guess I’m putting my 💵 where my 👄 is.

has thrown down the gauntlet!! *shouts*
Let’s get ready to MUMBLE!!!! ... (No?) 🤓

The “I Can’t Believe You Think That” book club is meeting on May 25, from 10-12 at Shelf Life Books (1302 4th St. S.W., ).

I will be the one holding my comfort body-pillow... 😏 Hope to see you there!!

If you’re not local, maybe join (or start?) a book club of your own!! Let’s change the gd 🌎!!
