Damn, the formula companies are really committed to mom shaming … no matter if you work full time or not, you’re screwed. Thanks Similac!

I would like to see some people try and live on a 39k a year for a month and then come back and they see what our education workers should earn. #39kIsNotEnough
So weird to not vote today. Both my mayor and councillor are acclaimed. If you’re not like me (which you probably aren’t, weird sitch)… go vote!
Replying to @WestJet
@WestJet this is my fifth follow up on an approved-at-the-airport damaged bag claim from February… not cool.

Dare I jinx it? My Rogers is back and my texts from the day are coming through.

Does this mean whoever is tweeting from the @Rogers account has Bell?

Fun fact: you aren’t allowed to use a car seat at all aboard @VIA_Rail. I hope the new trains come equipped with at least a couple seats that could accommodate them!

This daycare subsidy announcement feels like Christmas.
Imagine Ottawa collected enough in bylaw fines to build a new project and protesters funded a new affordable housing building. Or a new park. Or retrofitted a community library.

Love getting to experience the kids Christmas magic again. Thanks @canadapostcorp volunteers for making sure Santa’s letter got here. Was a bright spot in a COVID-filled day.

My Christmas wish list: * A pack of rapid tests * A booster shot * $10 a day daycare in Ontario * A retail-priced PS5 for my husband. I think the PS5 might be most likely.

Raptors tickets cancelled — this feels like March 2020 all over again. #toronto #raptors #NBA

Surprise this AM, Chris’ Bell iPhone went through a surprise time change overnight; just had to call in an hour later to work. I wouldn’t have believed it if I didn’t see it myself.

Bell is going to have some pissed off people this AM. Missed your flight? Client meeting? “I swear, my iPhone had a mystery time update!”
Election night pizza isn’t only for current journos, right? #Elxn44 #vote2021
Did I just wake up my baby screaming for @CanadaSoccerEN? Yes, 100%.
I watched Christine Sinclair in awe as a high school soccer player, and here I am, mid 30s, still watching her in awe. What an inspiration … and a reminder I’m not too old to be in peak fitness😉

Hey @WalmartCanada, why only moms? Why does a parent need to be gendered? Let’s normalize all parents taking care of tots!

Nathan went to his first vaccine clinic yesterday; pretty sure he was the only one there with antibodies from in the womb. And, our household is now fully vaxxed!

It’s 2021, please don’t assume I need my husband to co-sign for me to have a credit card. #facepalm
