In a late afternoon meeting today, my colleague's son came into frame about the same time as my cat. I guess it was time for attention!
So I'm now a week out from my last risky event and I hope that means I dodged a bullet....
Home schooling? You know, it's not just for scary religious people anymore.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

like the engineer who brought their very fluffy cat to our video call this afternoon.
There you go! JZ included one of our guinea pigs in her most recent Zoom to wide acclaim.
Matilda's friend Amelia is visiting, and they're laughing in Matilda's room! (Amelia was one of her close friends who also did not get into SotA and she's been in a pretty heavy depression for most of the year. This is the first time she's been over since before lockdown.)
In the last couple weeks Matilda has seen Mia, Iris, Anya, MI, Ruby, Savannah and Amelia. Aside from her jewelry class she often went months only seeing two of her friends (Mia & Iris) over the last year and a half.

Happy Left-Hander's Day!
We left handers are right thinkers.

My last TV binge was the Leverage reboot, which was fun. (Do you call it a reboot if it has most of the same cast members and follows on from the first series?)
Brookline Nine Nine started its last season last night, so I'm going to have to savor the episodes like the last bottles of vintage wine.

Go Leftys! My left hand is a useless appendage, but I have a number of loved ones who are left hand enabled.
I haven't watched the 9-9 yet. Waiting until I can relax and give it the attention it deserves. Maybe watch the last episode first as prep.

I'm binging on original Leverage right now. Partway through season 2 now.

There was awhile where I'd switch between doing things left-handed and right-handed to try to be ambidextrous. Didn't really work for me though. I could switch mousing hands easy enough, but never could write well with my left hand.

My uncle was truly ambidextrous. That helped his recovery enormously when he had a stroke and lost the use of his right side,

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Do you call it a reboot if it has most of the same cast members and follows on from the first series?
I do not, I think of a reboot as starting over. Leverage:Redemption is more like a sequel?
Nine-nine! I still haven't watched last night's episode - I have really gotten out of the prime time TV habit. I am both kinda sad but sort of pleased at the choice to make this the last season. Savoring each episode is clearly in order.

I'm right handed but my mother was left handed and taught me how to do things like tying my shoes, so I tend to be an odd blend on how I do things. I write right handed, but if I'm using tools switch back and forth pretty fluidly. This is helpful when I'm soldering, I switch hands without really thinking about it.
