Lol Tim, addictive most definitely and once you start finding like minds, it becomes your home away from home. I tend to imagine it like us all sitting in a boardroom in wingback chairs (because I love wingback chairs) and talking about life, books, outings, art 'n life in general - with good food!
I'm so sorry you were down with CV19, but glad and relieved that you conquered the sucker. I may have had it but not 100% sure and here the restrictions are rather laughable to be honest - so I think almost everyone has been exposed by now.
You can fit a lot of connecting into 2 weeks if you are in isolation, you must have missed teaching though?
I'm always ready for The Weekend prompts, one of the highlights of my week. To be honest because I currently work from homebase, I don't really have real weekends, so being part of the Weekend community helps me to celebrate them in a way that I don't otherwise really get to do - I tend to work every day immaterial 🤓
Hope you have something fun planned for this weekend and the weather will maybe be a bit more suitable for your deck chair reclining.
A big weekend indeed; I need to mow the lawns and clean the bathroom. Will hopefully be all the chores on my list. Teaching didn't stop - I took the approach of zooming into the classroom - connected my big head to the big screen in the room - had a camera on the classroom and we kept going. In the Senior School there's really no time to waste or you simply don't finish content.
I was lucky with CV19 - I had a dry mouth for about three years, and then nothing - if I didn't have to test, I would have thought I was fine for the 6 days and 21 other hours where I was a prisoner in the house (a prisoner of leisure, our little dog went for more walks in a day then he knew was possible).
Think it's time for bed, have a good evening. Tim
The marvels of the technological age - twenty years ago this was in sci-fi books - being beamed into the classroom from a distant location. I'm glad you were able to carry on, I know that with the last few years of school you're under time constraints and shows you care about the kids getting through it all in time. Nice.
Gosh dry mouth for three years would have driven me mad, but it seems like you got a relatively light sprinkling of symptoms.
Little puppy was probably super happy.
Have a nice night 🙂
Three years!!
I mean three hours - relatively painless.
Golly 3 years would have killed me, thought I nearly was about to burst with all the water I drank in those couple of hours. It's really time for bed now ;) cya
Also, sorry for the long comment, I really need to work on not doing that.
