    Did Kari Anderson’s Center Floor DVD. The beginning part was mainly ballet. I didn’t realize how much balance is involved in ballet. The plan for tomorrow is to do a Kari Katma Real Fitness DVD.

    Happy Pi day everyone! So, what kind of pie are you making today??

    Amber – when my daughter went to Australia to do an internship, Richard Simmons was on the plane so she got to meet him in person. She said he’s a really nice guy

    Made chocolate chip cookies for Vince then rice in the IP to freeze for during the week.

    Lector at the church tonight. Get this….the church sent out a memo that all Eucharistic Ministers should use hand sanitizer before giving out communion. Makes sense, but not everyone carries it in their pocketbook. So…I suggested that perhaps there should be a small table next to the altar with some hand sanitizer on it for people to use and also so that the congregation sees that it is being used. Will they do it? Probably not. Update: they didn't pass around the collection basket. They had a big basket that you were supposed to put your donation into. It really would have been nice if they'd told you before the end of the mass after a lot of people left. Oh, and they do have hand santizier, but it is far away fro the altar. I noticed that the altar server used it, but the deacon who gave our the Communion didn't. Mainly because he wasn't near it.

    Betsy – I loved Women Rowing North, too. I recommended it to our Newcomer book club. Don’t know if they’re going to read it or not. To me, it’s the type of book that we can relate to

    SuziQ – that would be wonderful, but I’m on medicare. This is the supplement. I don’t know if they’ll make an exception or not. I guess he can try….. Then again, we don’t have any proof that this is the ONLY medication that will work. We really haven’t tried any others. Now there is a lamictal that isn’t an ER (which I’m assuming means extended release). Will they say that I have to use that one? I don’t know.

    Machka – Congratulations on completing the course. You’re almost there! Funny about cleaning your work office area. When I worked for a rather fast-growing software company I was move 14 times in a year and a half. I learned to keep it light including printed paper. I could pack my desk and fit it in to one standard paper box.

    Hugs to all and prayers for those in need.
    SuziQ – SFL

    In my previous job I moved around a lot so I was able to do the box thing too ... but here, I've stayed put! I think this is the longest I've been in one office location in my life.

    So, very gradually, things have accumulated.

    The most difficult thing to bring home will be my plant. It has grown!!

    So here's what I'm working on at home ...

    My first assignment for one of my classes asks us to clarify the definitions of 'utopian' and 'dystopian' and use them to describe the impacts of social media on humanity.

    We have to use research to do this, all appropriately cited of course so I won't be using any of your comments ... but particularly in light of current issues, what are your thoughts?

    Does social media have a 'utopian' impact on humanity or a 'dystopian' impact?



    I may present the topic of my second assignment on Monday. :grin:

    I admit, I've been skimming over most of the posts about this virus. The answer to my question was probably somewhere in them

    How long can the virus live on a non-human (like a doorknob or shipping container?)

    A study has been done to answer your question ...

    Hi all, ventured out shopping and got a stock up of our emergency food kit.
    In NZ we are meant to have enough for the household for 21 days with little cooking facilities - in our case we have bottled gas so better off than many. This is in case of a big alpine fault rupture (a mega earthquake).
    We probably keep a reasonable stock for 10 days but now have closer to the 21.
    I want at everyone else's dinner time, and only missed a few list items...but flour was scarce.
    We had fun at a bowls tournament out at one of the peninsula settlements and I got lots of them used to the idea of elbow bumping rather than shaking hands. It will be interesting to see if the lady's tournament are OK about it on Tuesday - they are a bit more formal.
    I've managed to keep on task over the weekend with food which is great. Need to put more effort into exercise!

    If I had to argue one side, I would choose 'dystopian'.

    >>>

    Margaret So glad your son called. (((Hugs)))

    >>>

    I am heading out to Kroger this morning for a few items, planning to be there at 6 a.m. when they open.

    Then I am off to work at 8!
