(Am still taking a bath 🤫

I am still excited about the new masks I ordered

tis sad

I need to get more!

Ok, so

I have lots. But... one that I LIKE

I really like the starks vacuum masks.

should get more of them

Thing is, I -have- a shredder. I can shred this at home. There's just A LOT.

very comfy, three layers, comfy ear loops, nice nose flap. Yes, I can sew - but vacuum filter layer AND comfy earloops count for much

And this month's colors include PURPLE purple. I got lilac last time, and it's.. kinda pink-y-orchid.

I read somewhere most people's least favorite color is orange

I would believe this

the color is apparently seen as 'cheap'

I don't want to get my hopes up, but we may have new avenues into getting B into assisted living.

I genuinely hope she is able to get the support she needs, and I think her medical issues would be helped with more trained folk around.

Hear hear.

As one with a parent (used to be two) in assisted living, I will vouch for that.

Sometimes despite our best intents, we're just TOO CLOSE as someone we love ages.

YEah. And she's increasingly falling and ..frankly out of her mind

Yeah

Meanwhile, Jack is making friends with Layne

Oh.. damn.Waching MASH Episode where the little dog dies and Margaret ends up finding out and it gets past her defenses

Oh OUCH. Yeah. I remember that one pretty clearly some 20 years later.

oh noooo

nope

One of Loretta swit's best acting moments imo.. that scene where she loses it and starts to rant at Hawkeye... with a "Little more discipline speech" and throws a bit about the dog which confuses Hawkeye "Dogs?" And she breaks up going "They're getting run over by jeeps" ... just a great moment for the actress I thought. You could see the characters defenses shatter

yeah

thanks slackbot

You're welcome!

Lil DH time there.

Enjoy

I did.

Los Tuxtlas Biosphere Reserve
This Biosphere Reserve, located in the south of Veracruz state, is the ideal hiking destination for those fitness fiends who like a side helping of culture and ritual with their hikes. Occupying a vast expanse of over 155,000 hectares, Los Tuxtlas Biosphere Reserve is known for having areas such as Catemaco which are populated with healers. Before starting any hike, legend goes that you ought to be cleansed first. Many trail options are available here, from lake side walks to mountainous hikes.

I want to gooooo

I leave it to Rae and Catnik to suggest what might be waiting for Duff and Jessica in that basket

I suspect Salma sent books

the pigs are gingerbread

Mmm.... gingerpigs.

OMG, so much prep. I hate getting ready for work weeks.

i feel you

I am Big Concerned at number of students who haven't started exam.

Tomorrow is our first day of hybrid instruction. First day in a room with students in over a year. I'll have to teach with a mask on, teaching both them and the kids at home at the same time. I'm...uncertain how this will work.

(Forgot to hit Enter there.)

Oof

You'll make it happen. ((hug))

At least when I hybrid, it is a small class with a BIG tv
