  1. It's sweet! Not exceptionally well-written, but the illustrations are lovely and it is a nice little story. Very similar to Miss Rumphius.
  2. My husband is the music director at a PCUSA church and we sang it (or they did- I was in the nursery, lol)! I don't think we're doing "Jesus Christ is Risen Today" this week though...the pastor picked some really doozies for Easter and he's trying to gently bring her back around to the more common, well-known hymns.
  3. It's a little different because we're in the trial, but I'm boostering an 11.5yo now. This surge is unsettling me and we are supposed to travel next month. I was feeling confident about that, but not so much now... 😢
  4. My under-12 kids are in the Moderna trial. I'm hoping we'll find out soon about boosters! My friend has kids in Pfizer's group, and they have already started that process. My anecdata: one of my kids is six months post dose two. The other was originally placebo, so just he's three months out. We've all stayed healthy so far! We are still masking in public, however, and they're homeschooled, which also helps.
  5. Coming to say this! I follow a family on instagram with a swim spa and I love the idea! They get so much use out of it! That's our hope for "some day" when our ideal backyard getaway design is realized. Lol
  6. A proper fit is SO important! And a gel seat can actually be worse in the long run...it can move around and you won't be seated properly. Every time I have a 60 min or longer ride, I think about about getting some padded leggings, but I haven't yet. I do power zone training, and I'm planning a (virtual) climb of Haleakala in 2021 (five hours in the saddle) so I really should get a few pairs!
  7. Don't forget to download the app! As a member, you can get the app for free. Most content will be available through the bike tablet, but you can access all the running and outdoor content via the app. All the classes are outstanding! I've been using the app for over four years with a Keiser m3i bike and a Sole treadmill. Over 2500 classes! It's a great community!
  8. I have Lulu leggings I loooove, and Target leggings I looove, and Beyond Yoga leggings I looove! 🤣 Most of mine are probably from Fabletics, though. I really like the Mila leggings and capris. My primary requirements: thick enough not to be see through, pockets, and comfy. I spent $119 a few weeks ago for a pair of On "cold weather leggings," but they were actually super thin, not compressive at all, and too long for me. Luckily, I was able to return them...so I guess all that rambling to say: I'll buy whatever at any price point if it'll do the job I want. I run/cycle/lift/yoga every day, so I generate enough workout laundry that I wash them all together once a week and airdry. P.S. Not that you asked, but Lulu Sculpt tanks are my new absolute favorites for exercising. A friend introduced me to them, and I alternate between being very grateful and mad because I want one for every day now. Haha
  9. You might want to consider cross trainers for the walk at home videos if they include other movement. Definitely something with a flatter sole than many running shoes. I wear a Reebok for HIIT cardio/strength training and Mizunos for run/walk. I always have two in rotation: an older pair for casual walks and a newer pair for runs.
  10. Fagus trucks, wooden blocks (we have several sizes and varieties), and probably some legos and magnatiles.
  11. I've been living in these, which are unfortunately cropped (I'm 5'3" too), but otherwise meet your requirements. Maybe there's a full-length version? Old Navy had something similar a few summers ago, and I've been kicking myself I didn't buy more of them. These are the closest I've found. https://www.amazon.com/Amazon-Essentials-Womens-Studio-Stretch/dp/B07FK7TSQ1?ref_=ast_sto_dp
  12. I don't have knee pain, but I do use the Peloton app and spin at home. I started with a Sole SB700 bike from Dick's and then upgraded a year ago to a Keiser m3i. I love it so, so much, but it costs just as much as a Peloton. It is, however, a great bike for shorter people because the handlebars adjust forward and back. If you're on FB, I suggest joining the group for Peloton Digital subscribers because they are VERY knowledgeable about bike options. The Sunny is a popular one, and it's available on Amazon. If your Dick's has a Sole on the floor, definitely try it. It's a very sturdy bike, and the 900 is even nicer than the 700. I bought my Keiser at a local fitness supplier and they had half a dozen models from various brands to test. I did also go to a Peloton store, and the bike was better than I was expecting (they look so flimsy), but I didn't want to be locked into their subscription either-- or have to update that screen one day. I've had the app for close to four years and $12.99 is AMAZING. There's so much content beyond the bike now too.
  13. Do the ISBNs match? Another thought: are you looking at the middle/high teacher guide? Of course, it's also entirely possible the Amazon sample is from a different edition. I was able to match questions/answers from my guide to the sample, but what you have in your hand could be totally different! What a pain! 😞 ETA: Forgot to say I have the older student guides so maybe the elementary guides don't include the answer key at all. In which case, WHY?!?
  14. I just ordered a bunch of the student study guides, and didn't event think about an answer key! 🤦‍♀️ I just went to the corresponding teacher guide on Amazon, and after going through the whole sample, it looks like the answer key is waaay in the back, after the teacher guide answer key. I'm looking at From Colonies to Country. I realize you posted a few days ago, so maybe you've found it anyway. But now I have to decide if it's worth tracking down the teacher guides too...
  15. BodyFit by Amy is fantastic! https://www.youtube.com/user/BodyFitByAmy
