Broken Area

2020 may be horrible.

However, we still need a Christmas Tree.

This year it was rather normal, we went and got a tree. It didn’t involve us travelling all over town.

There will likely now be a Christmas theme in the next few episodes.

We hope you too find a tree easily.

So, every night we go for a walk.

Even on nights like this when it is -5 with 20 km/h winds. Now normally we walk for at least 2.5 km, usually closer to 4, but not tonight, we cut it short. A tad windy.

So this one is our actual CNDOP episode.

Plus, later in the week you’ll get our annual Christmas Tree episode!

We bought some Christmas lights!

The sunset was nice tonight.

It’s chilly a bit, but boy is it nice and sunny. I might take my bike out today.

Isabelle gave an artist talk this week for her residency at the Sault Museum, you can find it on facebook.

We might get one of those projectors that puts animation on the house.

I have a lot of marking to do.

Oh, this is out #CNDOP episode.

Zoom Christmases may be coming.

The store was fine.

This title has literally nothing to do tight the episode. However, it is a thing Isabelle said the other day on a walk we were on and I said ‘hey, that’s a great podcast title!’

Isabelle has a couple of things tomorrow, so we’re shopping a day early.

Oh and Isabelle will get a soda stream canister while I shop!

We went after dinner, which was odd.

I even forgot my mask, but went back and got it.

There was nobody in the store, it was eerie.

THERE IS FRESCA ONCE AGAIN! REJOICE! Also, there’s Pernod again. Maybe the pandemic is over….

Isabelle will be doing an online art class today for kids on the ASD.

She’s working hard on her residency. She got interviewed this week too on Radio Canada.

I resurrected two old MacBook Airs that Jon had spilled pop on a couple of years ago.

It was chilly today. Though it is sunny, maybe I’ll go for one last bike ride.

There weren’t too many people in the store, but there were only two cashiers, this made life difficult.

Sign update, not offensive this week.

They FINALLY called it while I was shopping. Thanks big media.

I put my stuff in someone else’s cart.

That sign wasn’t offensive today. Just dumb.

Did I mention Biden won?

Oh yeah Biden won.

One of the many things I like about Biden is that he isn’t Trump.

We’re all well, and following the protocols.

It’s 19 degrees today which is, well, which is odd.

Chilly and very windy today.

It’s Halloween! No pumpkins left, but I got chips and Rockets.

Isabelle has been lining up judges for her most recent art project, including old podcasting friend Sylvain.

The sign for that detailing place wasn’t offensive today!

I’m finding shopping quite stressful.

Isabelle got one of those ring lights.

I told a guy to cover his nose.

It’s us!

It’s also 3 C today, it might snow later.

We’re both marking today.

I’ve set up a second teach from home/record lectures/podcast from location.

Treat all of your assignments like they will be open book and you have nothing to worry about as far as online assessments go.

I bumped my head on the side of the car, like by accident, not on purpose.

We give an update on the dumb sign.

It’s 5C today, which is I guess what it should be. The fall so far has been nice. We’re likely noticing it more because of the pandemic. Of course Isabelle has been walking a lot more too, for her art and all that. I’ve been joining her on some of those walks.

We talked a bit about online teaching again. I guess that’s to be expected.

IT LOOKS LIKE THERE’S A NEW INDIAN RESTAURANT IN TOWN!

Isabelle shared a somewhat disturbing tale.

I made Isabelle laugh.

This title is not a commentary on people. It’s just a Thanksgiving reference.

I had a cavity filled yesterday.

Isabelle is working on a lot of different art projects.

I’m teaching the young people about my music collection.

We’re going for a walk each night after dinner, we’ve become those old people who for walks after dinner.

Teaching is hard right now. Happily the break week is coming.
