So many different bees at my place now. I was worried but now I am less so.

Great weather!

And I picked a bowl of lettuce and radishes to have with supper, and I had a few haskap berries for dessert <3

I had both eyes done last year and don’t notice any difference pre or post-op.

BTW, should anyone else here be expecting same op, I have the triple set of drops, unopened, paid $67.00 for them…make an offer. Rather than garbage them.
Sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice. There’s a certain point at which ignorance becomes malice, at which there is simply no way to become THAT ignorant except deliberately and maliciously.

Creative Chaos!

That was yesterday, but it was an awesome day out with the girls. Me and best friend, and our daughters. Lots of fun, and we all found something to buy that spoke to us. And it was an Adventure. That is to say, we had obstacles to overcome. It was very difficult to find parking, and when we did, my daughter said "What is that hissing sound?!?" Picked up something in the tire and it was going flat, as we watched. Pulled out a phone, did a quick search and found a tire place just a few blocks down the road from where we had stopped, they were able to get us in immediately. OK Tire in Vernon - great customer service! Definitely recommend these guys :)

Moon, the stolen 12-week old baby donkey, found and reunited with it's mom. Guess folks are learning you don't mess with animals, especially when the news hits social media.

Dance as if no one's watching, sing as if no one's listening, and live everyday as if it were your last.

Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.

yesterday afternoon.. Mission Park parking lot
Mr I'm so important carts his groceries from Urban Fare, but returning the cart is beneath him, leaves it on the side, blocking another space.
As he starts to drive off, the cart has rolled back a bit and he hits it with the back of his expensive vehicle
Ah sometimes Karma is just right there :)

My friend who had her vehicle totalled in an accident (someone ran a red and T-boned her) found a perfect replacement vehicle! Used of course, as theirs was not new. There was some stress because ICBC is being ICBC; foot-dragging numbers chiselers who think half-value is good enough. Fortunately, my friend's dad-in-law offered a loan at 0% until they get their settlement.
