    The question and answer thread

    I am not Canadian but I have family there. My brother in law had brain cancer, the treatments he received included 3 brain surgeries and associated chemotherapies etc over the course of about five years. They successfully extended his life long enough for him to see both his kids graduate high school before he passed away.  He was and his wife were scientists and had no real complaints about the care.

     

    With all of the visits and everything else the only expense they paid out of pocket was for parking on the day's of surgery, I think like 11 cad pesos per visit, so like 33 bucks total or something.

    I have not been maintaining consistency, work and a sort of recurring cold have been fucking me up, mainly work. It is frustrating because if my team valued efficiency there would be no need for so many hours but it is like the planning and mindset is not there so for now we will suffer.

     

    Out here on the edge of loosing the routine but think that I can pull it together and when open water season starts I hope that the added motivation of swimming in the open air will get me to tell my work to fuck right off a couple time a week.

     

    Anybody, myself included, whoever said that maintaining a routine was easy was only looking at it from the successful side, when you start to loose it or don't have it at all it is really really hard work.

     

    Hope the general silence in here is just folks not checking in and that yall are out there gettin it.

    Outside of bustling cities it really looks to me like there are a lot of retail stores that are gone and never coming back. Empty stores and dead malls pepper the landscape but no one seems to be talking about it.

    Back when COVID hit we were all worried about small restaurants going away and  we missed the shuttering of brick and mortar shops big and small.
