New happy place |
I live in a small Canadian Prairie city with a spouse and a dog. We retired in 2018. This is what life is like.

Retirement project - with magnets!
I have a phone wallet I love that uses magnets to stabilize a case with the wallet. It has annoyed me no end that my magnetic Spigen ring won't stick and it seemed like more than a positioning issue. I suspected fun with magnetic polarity but didn't have time to figure out a work around. Now I do!

Time for a new tree
When we first moved into our house we planted a tree in the front yard. We had wanted a clump birch but a weeping birch was planted by mistake. Weeping birches are not as hardy and ours started shedding big time in the last couple years. We got an arborist to do an assessment - we could take the tree down now or wait 5 years. We decided on now since we were replacing the tree.
Today was the big day!
