I now live in a fully vaccinated household as my two youngest kids just got their second shots. I know some of you will call me a sheep or worse but I feel good about my decision.

- If you point to Denmark dropping all COVID restrictions, the responsible thing to do is also point out the main reason they’re doing it is because they have ample health care and hospital capacity. As usual, context matters.
- I know a lot of peoples’ Xmas plans are thwarted.BUT I’m thinking about the front line workers who are CHOOSING to give up their time with family to help us through the pandemic by working. Amazing,
- When your uber driver talks about the “new lady” on the radio and how he doesn’t much like her... and he has no idea he is talking about you TO you. I said nothing-btw
- Several times each day, even though I know this is reality, I seriously have a flash where I double-check with my brain that this isn’t a dream/nightmare we are having. Anyone else having this “feeling”?
- Dan Levy hosts SNL. The Weekend does the Super Bowl halftime show. Incredible talent we have in this country.
- I remember every detail (where, when, who, what I was wearing, what they were wearing, the look on their face, their voice etc), of every time, someone told me "go back to where you came from". This stuff embeds itself in you. You never forget. And yeah, it cuts deep and hurts.
- If you’re looking for something to do with your young kids— teach them how to spell my last name. It will take hours upon hours
- So looking forward to spending Sunday mornings with y’all starting in September. (I got a new job!). Please indulge me, while I say a few other things (a thread) 1/5
- @TheRyanAdams is a genius of musical reinterpretation. His take on @taylorswift13 is beyond any expectations (which were high). Brilliant
- First time seeing grandparents in 17 months. My heart.
- It's my dad's 80th birthday. We are supposed be in Saskatoon today. Alas. He followed his gf from India in 1967 for a new life in Canada. He was a full-partner in raising his kids. He's one of the funniest and loving humans. I love him so much and I want you all to know that.
- Yes, Social distancing is hard. You know what's harder? Getting ill, severely ill in some cases,watching people you love dying. We all need to do our part. No exceptions. No playdates, No playgrounds, No hanging out with friends, no dinner parties, no coffee with friends. Please!
- My parents just landed in Toronto (from sask). In just a little bit, my kids will see their grandparents and I, my parents for the first time in nearly 17 months. This is what vaccination affords us and I couldn’t be happier
