Dave Barton, the Mayor, asked for them to try to distill some hand sanitizer so they added a little contraption that makes it. This smells like shit. Smells like its killing something though so that’s good. There are 3 ingredients - 70% ethanol, glycerin and hydrogen peroxide - no shit its flammable so be careful. I pick up my T Langhan’s sanitizer tomorrow so Jay can have one of these for his car and we’ll put one just at the back door in the garage.
We never would have had sanitizer before.
Plants for the garden.
I also got this nice little succulent which I’m hoping I don’t kill too quickly. Jay says that if I keep it alive I can get another one (he said the same thing about the kids but I tricked him with twins!). The lady at Century Home and Garden Greenhouses in Port Perry said that it needs 1/4 c of water every 3 weeks. I bet it can survive on half that.
I got an email from my neighbour, Julie, this afternoon to let me know that Bell is now available at her house so she would guess its available for me too. I called Bell and they can do 25 mbps download for $59 a month for the first 6 months and then $79 a month after with a 350G cap on wifi usage and a $59 one time set up fee. So I called Vianet, who we are using now and who is 10 mbps download at $79 a month to see what our recent usage is - we are usually about 100-150G per month but being off this month our total was 478G and March was 300G, but we were away for 5 days in March. Jay wants to do it anyway but I don’t want to be hassling the girls about being off the internet because we only get 350G I would rather have slower but unlimited. Every G after 350G is $4/G up to $100. He says he can just take his phone off wifi and I probably can as well, I have 20G of data on my phone so I could probably just use my data instead of wifi.
I prepared a movie out of the short videos and photos that Julia has recorded and sent me, photos were collected throughout the isolation gown project. It was a trial and error process and I needed some help from the girls but the final product was really great. Then I had trouble getting it to Julia - I’m not sure if it was because of the size or my internet speed, but I tried sending it as a Mail Drop Attachment and as an iCloud link. We’ll see if she gets it and then go from there! I ended up getting a video compressor and sending it to her through FB Messenger. Once we have permission from the long term care facilities to share the photos they sent us we’ll post it to FB.
They announced today that school won’t be opening until at least the end of May and will be re-evaluated again as that timeline approaches.
I sent Paige outside to take some fashion shots of the sun shining off the tops of the trees around the property when I noticed it from the kitchen window as I was washing my hands. She likes to use my phone, she took 2 and came in saying “its raining”..so I went out and got some.
Its 8:45pm, I’m going to go read my book. Tomorrow I have to do TRREB training, there are 3 courses I have to take in the next 90 days, we’ll probably 86 days now. Usually the first one is online and the second and third are mandatory attendance in Toronto but now they’re all available online. I also can do my two mandatory courses that I have to do in the next two years as part of my licensing now, while I have time. I have a two webinars I’m signed up for this week, Monday and Wednesday, and I want to get some more of my CRM done since I essentially took a month off from that during the gown organization and as I progressively stayed in bed longer and longer last week!
Tomorrow I’ll get up and do the workout at 8am!
Creepy Facebook ad popped up on my feed. Jay and Steve had Old Fashioneds last night.
