Grandma Sarah had many babies. And 12 lived. 6 girls. (My Mom was one of them❤️) and 6 boys. Those 12 had 46 kids. Many of us are now Grandparents ourselves! 2/

Story about my Dads poppy, it’s made with porcupine quills, birchbark and Sweetgrass. One of my Dads geezer friends, a veteran, critiqued it, saying the Legion doesn’t recognize it. My Dad said Indigenous Vets fought for Canada 🇨🇦 and weren’t allowed to join the Legion. 1/ They fought with Valour and were decorated but when they came home, the country they fought for didn’t recognize them. So my Dad wears his poppy to educate. ctvnews.ca/canada/only-eq… 2/

I bought a bird feeder. I hung it
on my tree and filled it
with seed. What a beauty of
a bird feeder it was, as I filled it
lovingly with seed.
Within a week we had hundreds of birds
taking advantage of the
continuous flow of free and
easily accessible food.
-A thread But then the birds started
building nests in the boards
of the patio, above the table,
and next to the barbecue.

Then came the shit. It was
everywhere: on the patio tile,
the chairs, the table ...
everywhere!
