Just crlebrating now not coughing up a lung (as in the past 2 days) from the first cold I've caught in years. The angle of the sun is now enough that it provides warmth to the skin despite the air's temperature. Still a foot-and-a-half of snow.
So sorry you caught one of those nasty viruses that seem to be running around this year. Hope it resolves quickly. It's in the high 60s already here, sun out, and I wish I could send some of it to you, but glad you found a bit of sun to warm you.
Yes ... a proper man-sickness. Wheeze. Splutter. Hack. Hot ginger-honey tea ... HoneyDew😀. Actually just passed the cryptic crossword to Jane for a right going-over (I'm stuck)
I'm a little excited because this afternoon our Cdn Liberal Party elected Justin Trudeau's replacement -- Mark Carney -- a banker (ex-head of the Bank of England no less) and a smart guy. Trudeau has stepped down but when you know Canada you appreciate he'll be around for a senior Statesman's role later. Carney knows Finance, is aware of how to arrange proper funding to rebuild our military now that Canada has been isolated and we must disentangle ourselves for Sovereignty's sake. Strange Times.
Glad you are happy with the choice. I hate that the rest of the world has to spend so much time and money protecting themselves from US, but the truth is, we have proven that we are no longer trustworthy.
Mary -- Here's the unvarnished truth. YOU are the only American I know. I met a couple of young guys in Montreal in '67 at our EXPO67, one of whom (a vet) was standing gob-smacked on the bridge overlooking the St. Lawrence River (he was from some un-watered part of Texas I think); the other was a wild-eyed young draftee about to ship out to Vietnam in a week. Them and a nice girl from Rhode Island in barroom conversation. So when pressed, YOU are my reference point NOT Trump and his ilk. Bear that in mind won't you?
