Me: Dad, why don't you follow my Facebook page?
Dad: I don't know. I thought I did.
Me: Maybe you blocked me like you did on Twitter.
Dad: I had to block you on Twitter. You twitted so much.
Me: I twitted ?? 😂
Dad: Yes, you twitted like every 2 mins.

I'm freaking out a bit because I got an offer for a job to work with Indigenous youth & seniors, and it's an amazing opportunity and I am nervous and emotional, and sort of really scared...but I took the job and I start next week! I know it's a good decision, but my nerves!

I take the same grocery bags shopping every Sunday. I average about $200 a week on groceries. I am not an impulse buyer and purchase necessities. Past two weeks my bill was $300. Same shopping bags full.
This sucks. That's all. Thanks for listening.

And if you can believe it, I don't even hate it. One thing 2020 taught me in abundance is that less is more.

I am proud to be indigenous... (A thread)... I am Metis. I was born Amanda Cardinal. Our family did not live on a reserve. They lived on the Wolf Lake Metis settlement. I wish I knew more. I truly wish I could go back in time and write down everything my Kokom...

My Dad ran in the election. He only has a few hundred votes in his riding. But... He has a few hundred votes in his riding!
I'm proud of him for his passion and drive.
Good job Dad!

I'm struggling tonight. This Pandemic is taking a toll on my mental health. I worry so much for my kids. We talked tonight. Wanted them to know they're loved & never alone. If they're struggling, that I am here for them. My heart hurts. Our world is a heavy place right now.

It was a bittersweet day saying goodbye to Honda yesterday. I've enjoyed Auto Sales for almost 6 yrs, but times are changing. So at 42 yrs old, I guess I'm starting a new(ish) career path.
Thank you to all of you who have supported me over the years. I appreciate you.

Red is said to be the only colour that is visible to spirits.
Please consider wearing red this Friday ❤️

Today is the 14th Anniversary of my Dad and I meeting. I searched for him. Started in the Yellow Pages if you can believe that.
And after a successful phone call, a few months of emailing, and a DNA test to confirm... we met.
Love you Dad!

Let's normalize not insinuating that someone with kids and an ex spouse have "baggage".
This statement honestly drives me crazy. If you are alive, there is "baggage". Fight me.

Found $5 on my driveway yesterday. Checked the mail today, and got a refund cheque for $10 for overpaying something. And now I just got an email that I was overcharged on a course I'm taking and they're sending a refund cheque of $140.
Small maybe, but it all counts right?

When I was 15 I didn't always have menstrual products. My parents struggled so I'd feel bad asking for them. I'd break into the machines at school that charged 25¢ for 1 maxi pad. I would take as many as I could before I got caught. No woman should have to worry about that....
Today
@CityofEdmonton
committed to providing free menstrual products in all women and gender inclusive washrooms located at city-owned facilities.
This will come into effect no later than June 16th, 2021. A huge step in the right direction towards ending period poverty!

I had surgery a few months back which halted my running, then the job change, & the Holidays, all topped with a cloud of depression. This morning I forced myself out. Finally got to try out the new shoes I got ages ago. It was short, but felt great.
