April 1 , 2020

Don't take any wooden nickels this morning, actually don't take any real ones either, unless they've been disinfected.
I'll be staying clear of the internet until after lunch, fools never like being made fools of. I was made a fool of the other day when I picked up a parking ticket, I thought I was parked far enough away from the alley intersection but ignorance doesn't give you an excuse. When there is so much kindness being shown to each other during this pandemic I think the City of Regina parking department has dropped the ball on this one. With every body asked to stay at home, residential parking is at a premium and they are taking advantage. So much for caring about how people are going to make ends meet. Oh well, that's my rant for the day.

I'm going to have a good one staying safe, you do the same.

💁🏻‍♂️Hi Edward,
There were very few April Fools jokes aired yesterday⭕️. And your parking ticket is no joke on any day of the year🚫, especially in these taxing times🌍. I’m glad you could still enjoy your day 🚶🏻and planned to stay safe doing it.🏡 All will be well.🔮

🎁HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CHRISTOPHER!🎂

🙋🏻‍♂️Yours is the first of three birthdays that we are celebrating today. This calls for a big hip-hip-hooray🗣. It feels good to be leaving April behind on such a positive note.🎶

💙To be honest, it is difficult for us to imagine what impact this period of social distancing is having on you🏡 - on the present moment in your life⏰ and on your options for the future🔮. We were already retired when we were asked to “stay at home”. 🏚 As a result, most of the adjustments we have had to make are minor ones.🍑

🎈As you celebrate your forty-sixth birthday today, we wish you joyful moments with close family 👨‍👦in our changing world. 🌎 As you face the challenge of shaping the “new normal” for yourself and our world, we wish you new prospects, good health and personal success💕 in the year ahead.🔮 We feel like our world is in very good hands.👌

We’ll drink to that promise!🍷🍷 Cheers.
