Views and News: Back to school edition
Aug. 27th, 2024 02:52 pm1. School has started. Ah!
2. On Saturday, I went to a craft swap hosted by the local public library and got a nice assortment of paper and do-dahs.
3. I got the boys' clothes sorted, too-small stuff put in storage or donation bag and clothes that fit on the the shelves.
4. I am working my way through 450 from Paddington and a 1940's Pacific detective noir called Five Decembers by James Kestrel. I'm working towards getting caught up on Fannish 50 and my soap opera (with a special update for Jungkook's birthday 1 SEPT).
5. I am going to start making a list for these posts because my mind goes blank when I actually sit down to type them out.
21 AUG: Senior Citizen’s Day: What’s the best thing about being a senior citizen?
Our neighborhood has a senior center which looks nice. I bet they have nice classes there.
22 AUG: World Plant Milk Day: What’s your favorite kind of plant milk?
I've only tried soy milk. It's okay. Minor is allergic to tree nuts so we don't have nut milks in the house.
23 AUG: Find Your Inner Nerd Day: What are you most nerdy about?
The precise use of words like 'interpreter' vs. 'translator.'
24 AUG: Pluto Demoted Day: Is Pluto a planet or not?
Yes! BTS wrote a song about it and it's the best extended metaphor love song I've ever heard.
25 AUG: Second-hand Wardrobe Day: What’s your favorite piece of clothing which originally belonged to someone else or bought at a thrift store?
I had a fleece jacket which belonged to an aunt which I liked very much. I commandeered the boys' father's sweatshirt as mine own and it's my top most layer when I go out for fall and winter.
26 AUG: Women’s Equality Day: What’s most needed in the world regarding women’s equality?
Reproductive freedom. Equal pay for equal work. Accessible cheap childcare for everyone.
27 AUG: Cinema Day: When is the last time you were in a movie theatre?
When I saw the Agust D documentary in April.
