Let's Make Some Art, Dammit

March 30, 2023. Another season of Blue Jays baseball started this afternoon. The marathon slugfest was decided only when Vladdy drove in the tenth run with a deep fly ball. Otherwise, my full day was spend working on the tech barriers project, which is nearly complete. https://flic.kr/p/2oqicuE

March 29, 2023. This is the Nation River near the 417, seen on a quick noon-hour bike ride (taking advantage of a few warm hours while we had them). Up early this morning, did a bunch of work on the tech barriers, then a meeting, then more work, and finally back to the city for meds and groceries. Busy busy. https://flic.kr/p/2oq98Aw

March 28, 2023. This is the Bridgehead at Rideau Centre - we stopped there on the way to the hospital, where it was my turn to see the doctor (I'm still dealing with this awful itch). The star of this photo is the little yellow duck on the coffee machine. Other than this, it was another day spent working on tech barriers. https://flic.kr/p/2oq55zx

March 27, 2023. This nice little cafe is just inside the front door of the Riverside Professional Centre; I have a gyro and pasta salad, and gave my coke to the guy in the picture (who in turn filled me in on conflicts in the Ottawa panhandling scene). I was waiting for Andrea, who had an appointment in the hospital adjoining the centre. Otherwise, my day was spent working on tech adoption barriers. Oh, and I got out for a short bike ride. https://flic.kr/p/2oq2Ckk

March 26, 2023. I was up bright and early this morning - early enough to catch the sunrise - and this is what it looked like as reflected on my computer screen from the east-facing window behind me. I spent more time on my tech barriers project today, and because of weather conditions (warmer, but windy, with snow conditions resembling slush) it wasn't a good day for a walk, so we went to George Richards and restocked my comfort wear (sweats and t-shirts) - at my size, there's no such thing as a simple or inexpensive shopping trip for clothing. https://flic.kr/p/2opy7Zt

March 25, 2023. I actually made a couple of TikToks on the subject. This is my front yard, still covered with snow, on March 25. No wonder we don't have flowers! I also show some video of a woodpecker in a snowstorm. On March 25! I spent a full day working on my tech barriers project today. https://flic.kr/p/2opwK6L

March 24, 2023. I went out several times to look for the northern lights, and maybe I saw them, very faintly, or maybe it was clouds. This was one last look out the window on a Friday night looking for them, and not seeing anything. A full day on the technology barriers report today. https://flic.kr/p/2oprYaH
