Just pulled out a couple of on-line-wins on Mario Kart. My day has peaked basically.
Today was the last day of our 9th week in e-learning. Never been more glad of a break.
This article where writers were asked what would their characters do in a pandemic is fun. At least for the shows I know. Though now I want to watch 24 again.
Also, I feel bad for working. That’s something hasn’t changed the whole 9 weeks I’ve been teaching from home.
Baby Shark is on repeat in the lounge as I work in the spare room. There goes my Apple Music recommendations.
Kettlebells on hold for some Yoga today. It was nice, I assume I’ll not have to spend so much time looking at my phone next time.
I took he hard drive out of my old Mac and it’s full of stuff. One of the things was some scans of photos I took 16 years ago. At a time when I’m trying to sort/organise the thousands of photos I have, I miss that limit. I felt so much more connected to the photos I took.



Played an online game with some friends and then it just transitioned into just chatting. Even if I wasn’t talking much, it was nice to be ‘there’ and to have that sort of interaction.
Happy with using the Micro.blog hosting and transferring my Wordpress blog over was really simple. Some minor errors sorting my domain but it’s all sorted now. Onwards!
I hate that my exercise is so doable. I’ve not got any excuse really. What fraction of the day is 25minutes? The added bonus is it’s some of the only time I actually give myself to properly switch off. Just to listen to some music or just to sit and think. I should do that more.
Came to Micro.blog by accident, now I post to my blog again!
However, I feel like I like the idea of having it hosted by Micro.blog. That seems simpler since it’s all I really use my hosting for.
Is that a good idea? Or not? Can I transfer posts over? Looking for help, ideas?
Put my head in my hands for a few breaths because trying to work while the kids bounce between playing and fighting just outside the door is getting me down.
Today I started to try and deal with my thousands of photos. As I’m deleting many many photos, I’m wondering if I just Thanos’d half, would I notice?
In the Apple store 5 minutes and I’m all like, “could I do all my work on an iPad?”
Obviously we’re eating something spicy food, in this case roast fish.
Ohhhhhhhhhhh. We’re out without the kids! First time in 9 weeks!
It’s such a strange moment. One day you’re suddenly having conversations with your children.
I’ve just made a folder on my computer for Week 9 of e-learning. 😐
So late it’s almost early. A giant storm just passed over us. With such intensity, That I thought of a ship in a storm. It seemed to be testing our strength. “Batten down the hatches.” And even now, it’s passing. Maybe now, i can sleep. Kids slept straight through, Of course!
Thus we never see the true state of our condition till it is illustrated to us by its contraries, nor know how to value what we enjoy, but by the want of it
This quote is in the back of one of the kid’s picture books called “A bit lost”. Which feels pertinent at the moment.
Apple Music has added “Get Up!" Mix, an upbeat selection, which I’m starting the day with. Started well so far…
Self-isolation - Vol 7. A new normal.





Just put together a table but obviously that’s too simple so i added two more children and that was much better.
