I can’t get over how stupid and overreaching the provincial law is in regulating what languages can be spoken in health care settings. Some hospitals have multilingual staff and patients. In the past, if they had, for example, an elderly patient who only spoke mandarin, they would assign them with the nurse who spoke mandarin (when possible). This seemed like the safe, kind and effective way to work. Now this is ILLEGAL?!? How can this be? Why would you choose the moment people are so vulnerable to give them a language lesson? I think it’s unethical to follow this law.
Language inspectors visited a couple hospitals, but it seems like so far they visited areas with no patients and took issue with things like plaques on the wall not being in French.
I think the only real threat of “getting caught” is, as you said, from snitches.
I think my four year old was threatening me. He told me that if I don’t read him a bedtime story and sing him a lullaby, he is going to dream that I am a monster when I pick him up from daycare. 😈
Oooooohhh… I’m shaking in my boots.

1 point for liver. I only ate it once and I was trying really hard to eat it since someone was kind enough to have me for dinner. But it was a struggle. 😅
Ha ha. This reminds me of a time I was at a restaurant and I had a young (teenager) server. I asked her if Blue Moon was a white beer and she said no, it’s kinda beige-yellow.
I find it’s a good show because it has the sci-fi/action side and also the family/marriage side. Seems like it’s asking the question, “what is a happy life?”
Oh my goodness. Ants are the worst. We had an infestation in our home a while back. At the peak, I would pour my cereal and look down to see a few floating in the milk. Exterminator time!!
When I was a kid, a friend invited me to Dairy Queen. When we arrived I was disappointed and confused to see an ice cream shop because I assumed we were going to see cows.
Have you ever had a mix-up like that?

“Soulmates are made, not found.”
I read an interesting article describing how believing in soul mates can be detrimental to a relationship because you expect it to be easy and for your partner to meet all your needs. You need to choose to love each other and work at building a strong relationship. 😍
Happy Valentines Day!

Appartement hunting is crazy. We had a prospective landlord tell us we would sign a two year lease because he likes to go to Florida in the winter and doesn’t want to come back to find another renter. Also, we could take the apartment as is OR he could install a decorative stone wall and then we could pay a higher rent. 🙄 Um… no thanks.
Oh no you didn’t 🤣
This week a couple of appliance delivery men came to our home while 4 year old was on the toilet. He told me to keep the door open while he shat « so that he can see the man ». 🤦🏼♀️ That was a no for me 😅
