My first skate of the season after a long hiatus went really well. I didn't fall down at all! ...but I did cut my thumb a tiny bit on my blade πŸ˜…

Overall, it was a success!

Doing this will also streamline your workflow. It's so much easier to just hit that heading button than to fuss with the type settings.

Sticker from Canadian Blood Services that says "1st time donor" and "Be nice to me, I'm new!"

Sticker from Canadian Blood Services that says "1st time donor" and "Be nice to me, I'm new!"

"Oh! She's fast!" Said one tech to another as she passed me. I'm pretty sure that I didn't do anything to deserve the praise, but I'm still beaming.

I used to donate full blood regularly, but this was my first plasma donation. 10/10 would recommend.

Have you tried setting a "go to bed" alarm for starting your wind-down routine?

That works occasionally for me.

The thing about dressing kids for a funeral is that all of their black shirts have a skeleton on them. 😬

At least they were upfront about it. Lots of places are doing it without disclosing.

Bandaid over the piercing. Like in the old days when jobs wouldn't let you show piercings lol

I wasn't sure how I was going to pull this one off, but then I found some biscotti πŸ˜‚ Now I just need to figure out how to attach them. Just jam them in on top, maybe? Wish me luck!

You say that because you don't understand how much the kids already love the chicken. It would be MINIMUM every day. LOL, gotta space it out.

I can see how it might work if you can freeze meals (eg. a big pot of chili or soup), and just eat one serving a week, and save the rest for later weeks. Or if you cook something that can be used as an ingredient for a variety of meals (eg. roast a couple chickens, then do quesillas, wraps, etc)

Did you save the top of it for rooting?

I always try, but only got it going once.
