The energy to get anything done today is nonexistent. Watching it snow, see how cold it is (only -14C but still 🥶) and watching the mayhem in YVR, makes me want to just stay warm with my coffee in hand in my Lazeboy.

Looking at the description of the village my paternal grandparents were married in:

“Canaseraga has three eateries, a minimart, grocery store, bar, American Legion, and a funeral home.”

Population is under 500.

In no particular order, I need more people to watch these shows so we can talk about them:

White Lotus (Se2)

On my 43rd birthday, I write about disappointment, disruption, property management, communication, and trying to correct course.

It’s strange to discover how well someone is doing in their professional career ~20 years after university when you haven’t followed them on social media.

Learned this morning that Maki Yi was a big part of Kim’s Convenience and doing very well as an actor and playwright.

My morning (so far):

- Wake up daughter and make coffee
- Watch her come out of her room at the last second to go catch her bus
- Get a text saying her bus didn't show up downtown
- Drive her to school through some very slow traffic
- Return to cold coffee

School is back!

Nothing frustrates me more than a client that doesn't have their priorities straight from the beginning. Too focused on finding clients for their company without any processes in place, and then ends up demanding everything all at once because they didn't prepare at the start.

2moro, and 2moro, and 2moro,
Creeps in this petty pace from day 2 day,
2 the last syllable of recorded time;

Not sure why Shakespeare didn’t write like this.

How do people feel about seeing emojis in blog posts/newsletters? Seeing them more often and wondering if I need to adapt them more often. 💥

It will never not surprise me how much better I can feel mentally when I start my day with a set purpose and accomplish those tasks. Simple things, or more complicated like the project I am working on now, don't matter.

Doing feels better than not doing.

I do my best at letting things go and letting her be herself. Is there a line where I should be more firm though? (She’s nearly a teenager now).

My latest struggle with parenting is with my daughter and clothing. She wants to wear the same shirt daily, shorts that are clearly too small (riding up a lot), etc.

Nice to see that she’s confident in her body, but I was raised to be respectful of others in public.
