Every morning I walked from Apex to Iqaluit because I had enough of taking #cariboucabs #Iqaluit. My mental health has been so much more calm as a result. Certain drivers really like to get into my personal life and I had enough!

One of the hardest news to take at 15 was the death of two great friends who perished in Nanisivik Dec 1977 from a plane crash. I did not know about mourning. Today I do and my tears are flowing freely. My heart goes out to those that will be at the memorial.

The only thing I fought during my 4 months of duty travel was the frig hotel pillows! They are an army unto themselves! Happy to have my malleable pillows once again!

It's hard to believe this headline that has "Pat" & "retires" Thanks @Patrick_S_Nagle for everything - welcoming me to Iqaluit, advice, rides in blizzards, advice, picking up the mail, advice, unclogging toilets... All the best in retirement! cbc.ca/news/canada/no…

Cancer has claimed the life of our dear cousin who was like a brother to us. He battled with all his might. We are all very saddened by his passing Leo Maktar. Big hugs going to my childhood friend and his lifelong partner, Myna. Leo, your presence will be so missed. Rest easy.

She's my boss! She keeps me in line. She is my Diva and is my constant during tough times and brings me joy like I have never felt before. Her love is immense and I feel it deeply. She's my one and only Valentine!

As the years pass, our family members start to dwindle in numbers, except for the next generation who are thriving. Our eldest Uncle now in his 70's reunited with his nieces and nephew and their partners. This is a classic Awa clan photo! LOL!

After a week of the nasty virus invading my body minus COVID, it's spread to my kissable lips! LOL. To top it off Revenue Canada says I don't live where I live so they clawed back my refund. I'll eventually get it back. I'm alive and kicking and that's all what matters.

Sometimes I feel like the google for people looking for my family. Twice this week and at least once a week I'm asked how to get a hold of so and so...

I've lost my dearest sister to cancer, now it's our youngest brother who was recently diagnosed with stage 4. Heavy heart and feeling hopeless. Hard to stay strong all the time.

Iqaluit is finally getting the winter vibe just before time change this weekend. Longest fall it feels like. Just starting to freeze in some communities.
