Prepping for tonight’s Easter supper. I’m tired of making Turkey suppers for the last 3 1/2 yrs for ALL the special occasions. He says that it isn’t that big a deal to make this supper. Will I go to hell for the death stare I just gave him #husbandandwife
Working on an essay about ethics of care, realizing that there is no independence without interdependence. We rely on each other, collaboratively we are better. #disabilityinclusion #ethicsofcare
Tonight I witnessed my first assisted suicide. He was surrounded by love as we all said our final goodbyes. It was peaceful and an end to a good life. #death #maid

Am I the a#%hole for thinking it rude that my neighbours asked me to move my kids parked cars off the road because they were having a party? We have 5 cars in our driveway and are always shuffling. Summer is when we can park on the road. #parkingissues
Trying to sell off the last of my mum’s things. One of the messages I received after informing the person that I had two people in front who are interested was, “cool” and then “why didn’t I sell to the first person”. Brazen and rude! #seller

Boards say they are working to recruit new
EAs are leaving the profession in droves and retiring early
Colleges are cancelling their EA programs because of low enrollment

I helped out at work today in a job that was outside of my job description. I got my wrists slapped for doing this. I stand by my actions. Kindness and relationship building should never be disciplined. #Kindness #interdepency
This tree has been up all year and changed throughout the seasons. All art is tactile so a visually impaired child can feel the art. She thanked me today for this experience. #art

Watched the first three games with hubby and Edmonton lost. Bought yarn and started knitting while watching the game and Edmonton started winning. Hubby won’t let me go to bed he keeps telling me to keep knitting. #HockeyTwitter #Oilers
