Have you purchased your copy of Fowl Play yet?
Whatcha waiting for?
Written by 2 Canadian Authors. The series takes place in Edmonton, Alberta.
A Whodunit that'll make you laugh.

Please Help! I found this picture outside of Costco. On the back it reads, “Mom and Dad, 1955”. I would love to return it to its owner. It looks like an old and precious photo. Maybe if we all share it, we can find the owner. ❤️.
Dear rest of Canada,
Please stop with the negativity.
Some of us tried, we really, really tried.
We need support now. We need your love.
Signed,
Edmonton and half of Calgary
Heard drumming in my neighbourhood, went to investigate. It was a vigile for a 43 yr old unidentified Indigenous man killed while being arrested by some Edmonton police officers with a knee to the neck. They want justice for him, they want his identity released. Did you know?
My daughter arrived to work at
@TELUS
today to find her very straight male boss wearing rainbow nail polish & rainbow eyeshadow. He did that for her, to show support on International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia & Biphobia. This mama's heart is full of all the feels!

The poor seniors living a block off 109 St and Jasper Ave are very stressed. The convoy's honking is non-stop. My mom called almost in tears asking when it will stop. They are all quite upset and stressed.
I wanted to surprise my husband and go stay at the Banff Springs Hotel for our 35th wedding anniversary... A single night starts at $1400!!
That's more than our monthly mortgage payments.
Getting breakfast in bed instead.
We need to start a 2022 list of all restaurants and businesses in the Edmonton area who have decided to continue to require masks and proof of vaccination.
I intend to support them.

Someone I just met for the first time today gave me an unwelcomed hug.
I felt violated.
I am a hugger but this pandemic isn't over folks. I am glad that I have my two shots but I don't feel 100% safe.
Please don't hug strangers.
Ask before you hug those you know too.
A huge shoutout to the two people who stopped their car on 112 St and Jasper Ave to shovel the sidewalk ramp and help a severely disabled man and his companion. They were stuck on the street.
This is the Edmonton that warms my heart!!

Know how the name "Karen" is used to describe entitled white women?
I now encourage you to use
"Marlaina"
to describe hateful, bigoted, right-wing nut women.
e.g. "She's a religious zealot's puppet.
What a Marlaina!"
"She lies about her lies.
She's such a Marlaina!"
Wouldn't it be wonderful to have vendors selling hot apple cider, roasted chestnuts, & warm candied almonds along the Victoria Promenade on Saturdays & Sundays in December? Maybe even have a few street performers too?

As an Albertan taxpayer, I demand that the gov't of Alberta
@YourAlberta
creates a special mental health program for our doctors and nurses who will undoubtedly suffer from PTSD as a result of
@CMOH_Alberta
& UCP gov't negligence in handling the Covid-19 crisis.

The sky was looking ominous so I asked Siri, “Surely, it’s not going to rain today?”
And she replied, “Yes it is, and don’t call me Shirley.”
That was when I realized I’d left my phone on Airplane mode.

Find out who their sponsors are and send them a copy of this conversation with an explanation. Ask for their support. Money speaks louder than words.
I've been spending time at the hospital. I've been watching the nurses. These women & men do not even get a second to breathe. By breaktime, they are exhausted. They can't even check patients who buzz them. This isn't where layoffs should occur to save money. This is dangerous.
I'm sorry friends, i don't feel like posting jokes this morning.
This Mama Bear is sad and very angry.
A parent who truly cares about their child's wellbeing would want as many caring & responsible adults available for my child to trust until they feel they can turn to me.
People in Edmonton are turning their Christmas lights back on. You can safely go for a car ride & enjoy the lights.
We'll be turning them on too. Let's bring some cheer and light into this darkness. All of
#Canada
should.
Please share pics of your lights.

This morning

is Albertans' collective voice of infuriated discontent. We not only want one MLA's head on a platter, we demand an UCP buffet!

Hey Edmonton! My friend Alex is opening up a cute little deli on Jasper Ave between 118 & 119 Streets. "The Little Shop" has so much deliciousness including Rosso gelato! It's part NY deli, part Italian with a dash of Mexico! Various hours for now but I'll keep you posted.

It's been raining for 3 days without stopping. My husband is in depression, he is standing and looking through the window. If the rain doesn't stop tomorrow, I'll have to let him in.
Spent the night at the hospital in emerge with my mom. Came home for a catnap. Now going back. In need of prayers, positive vibes or whatever good energy you can send our way.
Let's make a list of Edmonton area businesses that deliver (Not Skip the Dishes or Uber) or will have ready for customers to pick up. We need to support local as much as possible. Please add them or if you own a biz that delivers or will package add yourselves here.

@ABDanielleSmith
explain your fixation on the transgender community? Why are you focusing on a discriminated against minority and creating more divisiveness in our province? Why are you not focusing your energy on hate mongers, the unhoused, the crumbling health system?
Am sitting by my dying mother's bedside. Am grateful for the kindness & gentleness of the nurses & doctors in 6 West at the Royal Alex. Am terrified for the future. What I am hearing is that most will quit because of the UCP.

Life's been unkind to me and mine the last few years. It's been piling on more and more. I don't share often. The dam burst this week.
Taking time off X.
Please put some positive thoughts out there in the universe for me & my family.
I appreciate all of you. Peace to all. 🙏
The emerge waiting room at Royal Alex is SO full! I don't know how
@drdagly
does it. The staff is kind, even under stress. We need to stand up for them!
Update on mom: Waiting for a bed to admit her.

Had to go to the emerge last week (am better now). Needed a wheelchair as I couldn't walk or function. While in it, a nurse comes over & asks me to give her the wheelchair. She needed it. She said it was their only wheelchair. This was in the emergency. At the
@UAlberta
Hospital.

, I can tell you that this woman has class & smarts. We may not share political views but she's a decent person with AB's best interest at heart. Bigotry is not welcomed here.
Edmontonians are showing the love to many local restaurants & food businesses. Some sell out every day while others barely make 1 or 2 sales. Are there any who are really struggling & need us to buy from them?
Please post here.

I got these glasses months ago. Not sure what I think about them. I usually go for something unique but not THAT unique.
What do you lovely peeps think?
The next few jokes are dedicated to
@drdagly
because he needs a chuckle or two. Okay, more like a few groans and eyerolls. 😏
Patient: “Doctor, I think I swallowed a pillow.”
Doctor: “How do you feel?”
Patient: “A little down in the mouth.”
YOU are bad.
YOU, who didn't listen to my mom.
First case of Covid-19 in an Edmonton senior's residence is...
My mom's residence.
And is the home under complete quarantine? Nope, not yet.🤦🏻♀️
Folks Self-isolate NOW!
It's in the works!!!
I am just waiting for the
@CityofEdmonton
's application approval!!!
If all goes well, Sunday December 19, from 11am to 4pm will see Edmonton's first Winter Promenade!!!
I am looking for help with this. Any volunteers? Food Trucks? Carolers/Choirs?

Jennifer Johnson believes my daughter is poop? I want her to tell me that to my face. I dare her to. UCP dip$hidiot doesn't even describe what I think of her. Trust me, it's not even as nice as "poop".
And you folks who will vote UCP? That's who you are supporting. No excuses.
