@swats24 Libraries are the best. My latest borrow? A ukelele. Not only do they loan books but they also share instruments!

@SurvivingCFS I am so happy for you. I worked LTC for 5 years and it was amazing. Our youngest resident was 35 and oldest 105. Some lived there 25 years. I know they get a bad rap but most staff do care & do love their jobs/clients. All the best to you!

@MorganLaidler Because they aren't getting the job done - even more than they didn't get their job done when they were in the office. And my job takes more time/effort b/c they make more errors & it takes longer to get them fixed. Or worse yet, a TEAMS meeting is required. Asinine.

@swats24 So fun - in a creepy, don't-get-murdered-in-the-dark kind of way!

[Karen Evans @wow_kevans]

When I'm old and living at the long-term care centre (couple of weeks, maybe?), I hope they play this for me every morning. Thanks @CraigBaird!

Every Monday, I like to share a bit of nostalgia to help everyone's day get off to a good start.
This week, it is The Log Driver's Waltz, one of the most famous pieces of animation in Canadian history courtesy of the NFB, Wade Hemsworth and Kate and Anna McGarrigle!

@GailVazOxlade Shhhhh.....don't say it so loud. They might hear you.

[Karen Evans @wow_kevans]

@swats24 Exactly! Today's was a date square.

@sheilawalker73 I had some family at the golf too. They were using my ma's parking since the neighbourhood was being strict about cars. Hope the golf was great!

Our favourite spot at #CalgaryFolkMusicFestival. Bring on the main stage!

If they sold Slurpees @calgaryfolkfest, they'd make 10 gazillion dollars. #slurpeesummer

[Karen Evans @wow_kevans]

The gospel of music @calgaryfolkfest with Leon, Mariel, Celeigh, and Tim. So awesome. Thank you for everything #cfmf organizers and volunteers!

[Karen Evans @wow_kevans]

The amazing @wyattclouis playing #fotr2024. Look at this wonderful @CabinRadio stage and a breathtaking setting. So blessed to be able to experience this.

Beautiful day in Yellowknife for the start of Folk on the Rock. Waiting on the Ragged Ass Swing Band. #for #summer #musicislife

Had to tell my kids they eont receive any inheritance from me. I forgot to hit the grocery store on the way out and had to remortgage the house to pay for candy for the flight. #airport #yyc #robb

@kvlovely19 This is a great ear worm to have!

[Karen Evans @wow_kevans]

This is a good reminder for me. I'm prone to being too critical. Gonna try harder.

[Eric Alper 🎧 @ThatEricAlper]

Start being genuinely happy for others. Be people's champion, not critic.

[Karen Evans @wow_kevans]

@sheilawalker73 Very fun!

[Karen Evans @wow_kevans]

My sis and I waiting for the chuck finals to start. It's been a fabulous Stampede! #calgary
