I believe it is an Island tradition to blather on for hours complaining about the poor quality of PEI potatoes.

@JeffreykBrace I always felt my tombstone would read: For Fucks sake Bob (husband was British).

@KerryDaley2 Yes. She had just come to palliative care the day prior. She didn’t want to hang around there.

Interesting fact: The day my mother died, she was just as sick as the day before, but no sicker, or so it seemed. Yet when she woke up that morning, she told the nurse: “I’m going to die today.” And so she did. At 5:22 p.m.

It needs to stop raining so Squishy can come home from the office. He hates to get his lil toe toes wet.

I have not seen anybody talking about what’s going on in Canada right now. This man was pulled over and told by police that he had to come with them because a psychiatrist labeled him “certifiable.” No paperwork, no rule of law, just a doctor saying that if he didn’t come with him right then and there that he would be arrested. The fact that a government could do this is terrifying.

@strongtea506 @BraedenSorbo I am very well informed. Untreated schizophrenia can make people a danger to themselves and others. I have covered the murder trials. Thanks!

@barbinpei We were not allowed to leave the table until we ate all of our supper. There were many nights I had to gag down, mashed potatoes and canned peas. We weren’t allowed to have another glass of milk to help or water. To this day, I cannot eat, homemade mashed potatoes or canned peas.

@barbinpei That’s just way too young. A parent should never have to bury their children.

@CeciliaOberhol2 I found our woods magical: Emyvale was magical. I knew every tree by name and had various trees for various activities (orange eating tree, crying tree). I never stopped reading too and I often wrote stories about my family, which they discovered no matter how well hidden.

@barbinpei Yep, I'm old enough too to have spent lots of time outdoors on our small holding or piece of property growing up in South Africa. With multiple fruit trees and the pack of dogs & pit bulls and cats. Also random wildlife. I also had an extensive library to read. Was never bored.
