mom31257 Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 @TheReader, I hope you can find the problem and it's a cheap fix! @math teacher, congratulations! I prepped for the afternoon student, but I haven't had breakfast yet. I guess I'll go get that before I get a shower. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKL Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Still sick. About the same as yesterday. No exciting plans. Done: Personal hygiene. Checked on my kids & pup. Drank orange juice (kuz it's easier than eating an orange), ate cereal, took vitamins and Tylenol, made coffee. Wordle (4), nerdle (4), quordle (8). Caught up on emails, news, calendar, social media. To do: Sleep more. Night pup duty. The rest depends on how I feel. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
readinmom Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Good morning! Math Teacher, Congrats! What a great feeling... SKL, I hope you feel better soon. Amy, curious about what you use to record your video lessons? We are waiting on word about mom...they are going to transfer her to a skilled nursing facility to monitor IV antibiotics for an extended time. Apparently this bacterial infection is quite involved considering her age, etc. She has to be monitored 24/7 in case of reactions. She is able to go back to the same place she was at after her surgery in November, so the staff knows her, has already called us to discuss her care. Done so far: coffee, breakfast shake, kitchen clean up To do: mail boxes off to siblings, make more space in garage banking Costco for basics workout, weights work on reading journal, finish last bit of current book waiting on visiting information for mom so we can take clothes, snacks, etc. not sure about dinner, probably grill something, salad Have a great day! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mom31257 Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 @readinmom, I record them in a Zoom meeting by myself. By doing Zoom I can share my screen or the whiteboard easily. I use my laptop and do it in our bathroom at the vanity seat. I have great light in there, and the sound does well. I record it to my computer instead of the cloud. Then I upload to YouTube as unlisted. The only people who can view it are the people that I give the link. I place that link on a Google doc that has a link to homework pages as well. Would you like me to send you a link to one of them? @SKL, hope you are better quickly! I got my shower and got ready. I recorded the video and uploaded it. I made some lunch for us. My student will be here soon. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravelingChris Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Having a super sucky day=== no one does their job. American Express s*cks and I have been with them for almost 32 years and will be dropping them. Plumber who is probably around our age did his job very, very well. As to almost everyone else, NO. To do keep calling, emailing, etc and doing everyone else's job for them 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mom31257 Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Finished with my student. He and his mom are super nice people! I packed for our overnight trip, including games because my sister LOVES them as much as me! We will leave within the hour and stop at Cracker Barrel for dinner. We have a few gift cards we have never used. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheReader Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Took a break to watch TV - in the ongoing saga of perimenopause, today has been a day of cravings and baby migraine, so have medicated, napped, and now vegged out. The headache is gone, the tired remains, and I should probably make a juice rather than keep eating cheddar pretzel pieces. My appt is in 2 weeks.... also, @math teacher, I realized I didn't congratulate you -- that is a huge accomplishment, and you should be very proud! I hope you enjoy your reward! Treating yourself like that is such a smart plan! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScoutTN Posted July 6, 2022 Author Share Posted July 6, 2022 (edited) Getting some scattered t-storms. Not enough to un-drought our condition, but we’ll take whatever we can get right now. Eta: Checked in with Dd on what she got done today. Grrr, not nearly enough...the fall is gonna be rough for her... Prepped dinner Ground coffee Got a snack Read the mail. Yikes! Stock market is terrible - shouldn't have looked at the retirement acct summaries. Logged session summaries from today's students.

TheReader Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Oh - electric bill. So, since the war in Russia, Texas is exporting our natural gas to Europe and places. Which is causing a shortage here in Texas, which is driving prices up some. Then, since the winter storm fiasco 2 yrs ago, ERCOT is no longer prioritizing cheap energy over all else, and is requiring companies/generators to be online at all times, which means paying them steadily, which is increasing our prices. And then, since the prices went insane during the storm, and none of the providers could pay it, they were granted a thing (bonds?) to be able to spread the cost over several years to consumers, thus adding small surcharges to everyone's bills for the foreseeable future, which is....increasing prices. Apparently, our patio cover has actually saved us money even though our bill is higher -- our increase was "only" 20% to 30%, whereas statewide it's more like 50% to 70% higher than this time last year. (so, likely our rate is equally higher, but our usage lower, thus the difference....). We're still going to look if one of the recognizable providers has a better rate/option (some offer things like free weekends or evenings, for instance), but....it could be (much) worse. :sigh: Yay? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

readinmom Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Well, I was definitely in a purging state of mind. We dropped off a lot of stuff at Goodwill! I was going to donate all of our used curriculum to library, but now second-guessing whether or not to post it on the curriculum board. Sometimes it's easier to be done with it but some extra cash would be nice. I just remember being thankful at finding some treasures at the library bookstore that were mentioned in the Well Trained Mind. I'm off to visit my mom, make sure transfer goes smoothly. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
