When I was young, “Enjoy the Silence” was a rocking Depeche Mode song. It still is. Now, though, “Enjoy the Silence” refers to those times I get up 90 min before everyone else here.

My son, who turns 12 in September, is not eligible for a vaccine here in ON, while all 2009 kids in AB are. We need consistency.

When I was little, my mom would say to me, “Go to bed, I’m tired.” It didn’t make sense. Why did I have to go to bed if she was tired? I get it now. #boymom

I told the boys to smile. Sully did. Mike wasn’t having any of it. This is their next album cover.

When you rescue bare, sad looking plants and revive them - a very satisfying feeling.

As a part of my attempt to find one fun thing to do on days off, I went to a float tank, salt pod thing. 10/10, highly recommended. It was also impeccably clean. I was surprised at what fun it was. I feel amazing. And very thirsty. Well done, ISÖ Spa Floatation

My son is doing a "Wave-a-thon" fundraiser with Capital Wave Swimming and Water Polo (Capital Wave Water Polo). Msg me if you'd like to contribute. This club does it all - builds skills, morale, confidence & more - and they've done it safely since this whole p--demic began. Every little bit helps!

Retweet if you think there should be grace periods from telecom giants for free data usage when there's a natural disaster. #OttawaOutage #Ottawa #ONStorm

I'm trying not to complain, but I'm just about done. Power came back on for a day and now it's out, I hear, until Sunday. I feel at the end of my tether. I know others are far worse off - this is just me now. #ONStorm #hydroottawa #itllbeokay #nopower

Power restored. Grateful, appreciative, but still annoyed by the info vacuum - many had it way harder than we did. It wasn’t the wait, it was the lack of comms to many unrecognized areas. Hope there’s public consult in the lessons learned post mort. #Hydroottawa #onstorm

News: Internet outages have affected Air Canada’s customer service lines. Canadians: How can you tell?

LTE appears to be back in Ottawa.

People at the store are big mad because they can’t buy lotto tickets.

Good morning. Twitter’s still here. So that’s…good?

Family dr retired. A year trying to find a new one. Have used virtual for renewals & referrals. Without, we’d have to go either to ER or wait in line at 6 am a clinic, hoping. I went to 15 clinics in October - no avail. ON & OMA decision is a disaster. #savevirtualcareontario

My son is 13 now. Why am I waking up with the Mickey Mouse “Hot Dog” song in my head?

My son has let his Switch gather dust. I picked it up and played Animal Crossing. The boys didn’t like that. They bought me Legends of Zelda. I finished it. Yeah, I’m a gamer now. #itsmyswitchnow

Having a 13-year old means saying, "It's pronounced, 'Pardon?', not 'Hunh?'" 1,700 times a week.

Woke up involuntarily at 4:30 am and am still up despite the fact that my alarm was set for 6:30. 100% would not recommend.

Really enjoyed presenting at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair (The Royal Agricultural Winter Fair) today. What a great time! See you again on Saturday!
