#ThreeGoodThings from today:
I went for a bike ride through town, up to Capitol Hill for coffee, then home to work. It was a little brisk but truly a bluebird day. I even got to stop and say hi to this year’s crop of baby geese by Cherry Creek.
I met with a group of Diné environmental organizers and experts to start work on an explainer video about methane issues on tribal lands. Such a good project and good energy from this team.
I made a decent chicken curry with saffron rice for dinner!
Chumbawamba knows it - "We watch our future burn / and wonder if we'll ever learn / that words can save us."
Cat Stevens knows it - "Don't be shy, just let your feelings roll on by / don't wear fear or nobody will know you're there / you're there..."
Cake knows it - "But how can you say you'll be happy / when you turn the screws, oh / you turn the screws / it's what you choose to do / you turn the screws / you think I must turn them too."
1. Planted some summer bulbs and more tatties today.
2. Managed to express and work through a weird emotional reaction earlier.
3. Been needing to nap less recently!
1. After tomorrow, I will re-retire again! I will bring cake to celebrate with staff at tomorrow’s potluck.
2. Met with my replacement yesterday and she is in good shape. Hopefully the students will embrace her too!
3. My MP @TimLouis was declared victorious again today winning by only 522 votes. So happy as #KitchenerConestoga has typically been a Conservative stronghold.

Tuesday, April 29 🌹🌞
1. Vagabond son (who leaves with his family tomorrow for NOLA) re-screened my slider and brought me a Costco rotisserie chicken. 🐥
2. Had enough energy to deadhead some of the spent roses and feed the plants fertilizer. Next bloom, five weeks.
3. Relaxing on the patio and my little peanut-eater came and stretched out about two feet from me. (Below)
Today's good things included:
- knitted socks someone made for me 💙
- fresh green leaves backlit by the low sun 🌄
- good news from a local refugee project ✊🏼
1) Carney & the Liberals carry a win over Poilievre & the Conservatives 🥳 🇨🇦 sorry for the other parties that dropped drastically, especially Singh & the NDP. We need diversity in government and a plurality of voices - IMO
2) populist Poilievre got a proper spanking and even managed to lose his own riding - sends a clear message rejecting populism. (Yes, there is a limit to my tolerance - I don’t tolerate the intolerant)
3) had good meetings with my thesis advisors
