How cool!

Ooh, that sounds pretty. Designing your rings, how fancy!

Laura you sent me down an Amazon skort rabbit hole! I just spent a bunch of money yesterday, telling myself I do not need new things.

My deepest apologies, but of course you do need new things.

It is officially bike to work day. I am, of course, working from home, but I did ride down to the train station and back, and got a Bike to Work tote bag out of it, so that's nice. The e-assist thing will take some getting used to, I don't really feel in control of it yet, and sharing the road with cars remains scary (I thought there would be not many cars at 7:30 on a Friday morning, and there weren't many in comparison to actually busy streets, but there were more than I wanted!) but it's a start! The train station is a third of the way to the gym, so that gives me an idea of how hard that will be (and the rest of the way is on dedicated bike paths, so other than crossing a couple of roads there is much less to worry about in the way of cars). That'll be my interim goal before trying to actually bike to work which is pretty much all on streets without actual bike lanes or much shoulder but the same distance.

Zoom! Look at you go.
Emmett and I are attending a memorial today for one of his old baseball teammates who died at 25 in a ski accident. It's giving me lots of feels. Not least because I'll be seeing a lot of people I haven't seen since 2014 (and that was a reunion in itself, since the team won the championship in 2008).
I was able to print and frame a picture of that team that I can give to his parents.

Oh, how sad. That'll be a nice gift.

Niece is missing her her stage debut because she tested positive for COVID.
She's pretty crushed - but she's vaccinated and we're all safe. Yet again, let me say, not getting the damn shot BEWILDERS me.
