Friday 8:00 AM: Not so busy

 It’s a little foggy outside.

I have four online classes today: Alberta, Ontario, Chile & Colorado.

Thursday Mass

 Presided over by Father Oliver Omega.

Thursday 6:52 AM: Easier Day

 I’ll be online teachpersoning it for 4 classes today, provided the students don’t reschedule.  So if no changes today: Maple Ridge, Istanbul, somewhere in Brazil, Ottawa.

I can go to Mass after I drop off Tony at school.

Challenge Completed

 

After all this time though, 我的中文很不好！

Wednesday 6:02 AM: BC Mass Shooting

 I learned about the Tumbler Ridge Mass Shooting from WeChat, a Chinese social media app, from an American contact. Sad.  And I’m sure that the reaction from the Canadian media will be maudlin and stupid. Pray for the victims and their families. 

Tuesday RCIA Class

 I went to Staug in the evening.  I learned I will be conditionally baptized next month.  Also I was made aware of the increasing demand for food banks in Brandon.

Cute

 This gentleman pulling his child on the sleigh was a wonderful sight.

Tuesday 9:32 AM: 7 hours of classes

 

Yes. 7 hours.

Two in Xinjiang.

Two in Maple Ridge.

One in Brazil.

One in Chile.

One in Toronto.

Can’t complain.  $$$!

It’s colder in Toronto than in Brandon

 With temperatures hovering around zero in Brandon, I was surprised to learn that it was below minus 15 in Toronto.

The weather this Winter, said a local, has never been this warm.

Driving to and from Minnedosa photos

 It was misty on the way out.

Sunny on the way back.
