Sympathetic Joy

It starts with a little kindness to yourself, then spreads to the pleasure we can take in each other. Stay warm friends. Photo by Francis A Willey

‪Thank you to the @edmontonjournal for writing about a program I’m (Ryan) very lucky/proud to work at and for incredible youth wanting to change & do better. The Bridges program through the fantastic @edmontonjohnhowardsociety has an amazing team(I’m always amazed how they ACTUALLY support my whacky work/life/music Balance)‬. The running program is just one part of what Bridges does... but it’s a cool part of it! & huge thanks to Allison & her team at the @runningroom on 109th street in @oldstrathcona with some discounted shoes for the #youth! You guys rock! #yeg #edmonton #alberta
Stay healthy everyone!

Support good #local business right now when you can in ur town! Just gave the beauties at @colordevino_yeg a budget & requests/preferences & we got a case of amazing #wine (& #albertabeer... thank u @theamberglass 4 ur picks, this 1 nailed it!). Curbside/physical distanced pick up was easy! Tonight we’re enjoying this excellent #italianwine (#aglianico grape) Basilicata by D’Angelo w/some beautiful #LeonardCohen #vinyl. #vino #music #Italy #vinoitaliano #supportlocal #supportlocalbusiness @leonardcohen

Also, the beautiful #succulents arrangement is by @littleplantshopyeg, we believe those beauties are taking orders as well! We adore that shop. They play the best music. Beautiful plants (& their #doggo is gorgeous!)

I’ve been in self isolation for 9 days (due to a cold) and listening to records has become more important than ever. It’s engaging in a way a stream never can be, and Ryan and I love flipping through our albums to look at the artwork and read the worn inserts. @blackbyrdmyoozik storefront is closed, but they have devised ways you can still get your vinyl!! I think this is a beautiful community service. See their post for links and contact numbers for orders and delivery. #isolation #covid_19 #music #yegmusic #vinyl #beauty #community #yeg
