Go to concerts and the opera; she was a professional opera singer and music prof. Museums.
All cultural venues are closed for the forseeable future. And she wouldn't go anyway, with the Covid numbers so insaneETA: Snail mail can take anywhere from 10 days to 6 weeks, especially during the holidays. Not really satisfying.
Would it satisfy her to pick up music practise again?
Might be singing, but learning a new instrument might also be an option.
daily music practise structures the days, and music can be quite comforting in difficult days.
I suggested my mother duolingo, to learn English, a language she never learned, but is more and more used in Dutch society. So she does a daily portion of Duolingo now. I got the impression it helps her to start the day. (Another language to learn might suit her situation better)

Thank you! Do I invite people or just post the link in a thread for them to ask to join? If I set up it, am I responsible for monitoring it? Because...I don't have the time for that 🤣🤣🤣!!!
Your club your rules I suppose. I don’t manage / moderate a club
A private one requires invitations I suppose, and a more accessible one is less private.. You will see once pushed on that button.
You might want to find a second (and maybe even third) moderator depending on the group size.
also your choice is if you want a more loosely or more strictly moderated group.- 1

yes, I work on a regularely base in Musescore. The free edition.
It has a steep learning curve, but it is easier to use for me then Sibelius (I use musescore in Dutch, and Sibelius is only available in English.)
There is a course one can follow, but I learned the most myself, and asked the online community if I hit a wall. I use Musescore only for Choral and Vocal music.
When one install Musescore, the first view only gave 'basic' palets to work with. You can put those palets on 'advanced' pretty easily, and that is my standard what I work with.

My outdoor store adviced this:
* cold water program to clean washing machine from standard detergent
* product A to clean the jacket from dust and soil and spots
* product B to waterproof the jacket
If the jacket has been washed with standard detergent or not prewashed at all, the washin waterproof product can’t attach well enough
It works well this way.

Downstairs & garden absolutely not.

The randomness ruined/ruins everything.
I can’t remember now; how was Europe operating in the thick of the first wave? Were people allowed to country hop for relaxation/weekend escapes/time in a less restrictive country, comparable to a less restrictive state?
(My brain is so foggy on timelines that I thought my mechanic was screwing with me when he asked if I wanted my inspection done while he had my car. I could have sworn I did it less than 4 months ago. I don’t remember the ‘when’ of almost anything since Jan/Feb of 2020.)
In the first lockdown march 2020 we (Belgium) were not allowed to travel for recreational purposes. Borders were closed, everything recreational was closed except nature, and only supermarkets, drugstores and pet feed stores were open. 2nd home owners were not allowed to go to their second homes, schools and outdoors playgardens were closed. We were not allowed to sitdown or to picnic in public. Finally, to keep the people happy at home they opened garden centres and hardware stores. In the second lockdown they also kept bookstores, libraries and craftstores open. September 1st we will finally get out most of the second lockdown restrictions although masking will probably required until Easter 2022

Well I must be doing something wrong. Almost single shelf in mine came off under the weight of books. I’ll send a picture for proof once I’m back in the states (because I’m just now battling time zone insomnia with searching for real bookcases and mine still look like that).
many recs for pretty, hardwood bookcases, anyone?
eTA maybe it’s not Billy I have? I’m pretty sure it is though. Black ikea bookcase. Feeling weird after reading all this posts...clearly it’s me. No it’s not heavy books.You are not alone.
The cases with 40cm and 60cm width are fine, but my 80cm width cases struggled. I had to buy L-hooks to support the shelves.
For really heavy stuff I would advice smaller cases..

I am one of the more strict teachers in my church and wouldn’t have used the balls for that reason. But I can see that an unexperienced teacher could let happen this. It is not common in church but I tend to coach new teachers until they are comfortable to do it themselves.

It is good to grief about losts but also good to ponder about new possibilities. If nutcracker is part of the holiday season buy a ticket of a performance, no it will not be the same, but it might be something.
A lot of people want celebrate Christmas together but are not possible to do so, so maybe volunteer somewhere to help celebrate Christmas? (Shelter, foodbank, nursing home…?) Again it will be not the same, but maybe better then sitting at home with your dh..
Is there some food you connect with Christmas and you will miss? May be you want to learn to cook or bake that so that you will have at least your holiday food?

There was an other serie, but maybe you should do a deep search on the boards for that. The beginner step guide also exists for knitting and other crafts.

Maybe practical to know:
EU announces on Thursdays the new colorcode of EU countries, which change on Mondays. Most countries define their travel restrictments in these colors.
If tests are a requirement be sure take the right one, not every country accepts the same ones.
I understand your excitement as our child moves to the other side of the border next month, and although it is relatively close in distance is is a different world in requirements.

As you mention a love for detailed stuff:
Iron beads? (that’s how its called here) It is not my cup of tea but dd liked it.
Embroidery for kindergarten ? I think I was 5 when I got my first embroidery package.
Weaving? Or maybe first spool knitting?

Ferrero has to recall all Kinder products, and is at the moment not allowed to produce, sell, import or export anything related to the food sector:
