silver_chipmunkThe only webinar I had today was at 7:00 pm, so I had the early part of the day to do other things. I slept late, and then had breakfast and coffee.
I puttered around, and then Skyped the FWiB. We had a very nice talk. The kid called me while we were talking so I briefly spoke to her too.
My e-mail is once again not working from the webmail, but still is from the phone app, so I've been e-mailing from my phone. So that's a bummer.
In the mail (snail, not e-) I got an invitation to join NYC's Healthy NYC study, with a promise of a $20 electronic gift card if I signed up. So what the hey, I did. It's about 10 surveys a year, all optional, and private.
I worked for about an hour on my Pixlr project, it's not very good, but I did it. I finally got into the Microsoft Teams site to post it, and figured out how to post it, so I learned something else as well.
I'm reading the first book in the InCryptid series. I had heard about them, then discovered that I had read two other books by the same author, and liked them, so I decided to give them a try. The first one so far is pretty good, though I don't know if I'll keep on reading the whole series.
At 7:00 I had the webinar, a follow up to yesterday's on de-escalating confrontations. It wasn't as helpful as yesterday's, but it was pretty good.
At 8:00 I tuned in to the Thurber reading but it was cancelled. He had posted Tuesday's though, which of course I missed, so I watched that.
Then after that I called Middle Brother. He's doing fine, they went to a park today.
Then I had dinner, but after dinner I struggled with the Microsoft Teams site, until I figured out how to work it. Then I posted my Pixlr effort and went to the bedroom.
Then I remembered that since it was Thursday I was supposed to Call Oldest Brother so I did and we talked while I fed the cat and turtle. He's doing OK.
Tomorrow I have to go out in the morning for milk, so I can't sleep as late as yesterday or today!
And the crossposting was still not working as of yesterday. Bah.
Gratitude List:
1. The FWiB.
2. My phone e-mail.
3. Figured out some stuff.
4. Air conditioning.
5. The kid.
6. My brothers are both well.
