1. I couldn't fall asleep so hung out with the Young One until 2 AM
2. Texted my friend who is in Infection Control for Stanford University Hospital. She's working long hours, but she and her family are fine.
3. A wind and rain storm knocked the electricity out. The power wall kicked in and saved the day. I didn't have to flush the toilet using buckets of water.
4. The Nephew and his wife had a gender reveal video of a box of white and blue balloons with blue and white confetti. She also posted an ultrasound picture of the little dude. He arrives sometime in September
5. Attended a virtual birthday party for Himself's brother.
How was your week?
A great week

DeleteHappy week...happy Friday, haven't figured out how it is different than the other days of the week during this dam-panic...it's baking and baking Monday through Sunday. Stay well my friend.
ReplyDeleteI baked all week. I'm not cooking at all today 😺
DeleteLooks like another good week. What a fun way to do the baby gender reveal under the current situation.
ReplyDeleteIt was a fun way to share good news.
DeleteGood week for you! #3 WIN/WIN! :D
ReplyDeleteI was happy dancing and flushing the toilet all afternoon!
DeleteThe virtual contacts are keeping us sane, I think. Sounds like you had fun :)
ReplyDeleteIt was a different way to celebrate
DeleteIt's amazing how we are all adjusting and changing things. I still haven't had my nice birthday dinner since the restaurants are all closed, but I guess that is just one story of the many we all shall have when this is over. We didn't lose power the other day. Good thing you had your power wall. I've flushed way too many toilets with buckets of water. Happy end of another week. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteYup, we made it through the end of the 5th week.
DeleteSounds like another great week, CJ. Congrats on the newest family addition-to-be! Good week here, too:)
ReplyDeleteHappy to hear you had a good week
DeleteI Am With Ya On The Late Night Action - Have A Marvelous Weekend
ReplyDeleteCheers
Isn't it amazing what we are capable of when we are required to stay at home? Nearly everything you mentioned revolved around the internet and how it rules our lives right now.
ReplyDeleteCongrats Aunt CJ. A boy in September.
I bet you are saying how glad you were to install that Power Wall. I bet it was truly worth the cost with this one outage. Happy Friday (still is in my world). I'm off to see what I've missed.
Well, the Internet has been important to me long before Stay at Home. All banking is done online. Keeping up with friend and colleagues from near and far is done online. Monitoring home systems is done online and on and on.
DeleteI can't even seem to keep up with friends and blogging buddies. It's a good thing I don't do online banking, and I certainly don't buy anything online.
DeleteYou remind me of my friend Sally. She has three locks on her front door, and a security alarm system that she leaves turned on all the time. However, she goes online and orders everything in site, as well as does all her banking, etc online, too. I told her if there was a fire, she'd never get out because she feels so "safe" in her home. But she risks all kinds of internet intrusion and says she is perfectly safe there. I'm just the opposite. I seldom lock my front door and I live just four houses from her. However, I only use the internet to keep up with blogger friends. Different strokes and all.
Even though you don’t use the Internet for banking, the businesses that you pay by check are doing their banking electronically.I used to leave the front door unlocked until one night when the girlies were 10 and 6 and having their own slumber party, a strange woman walked through the front door. After that, the front door has always been locked day and night.
DeleteMy sweet tooth woke up and hubby brought ice-cream :-)
ReplyDeleteThe tooth went into deep-sleep, is hybernating again. Good!
I did a training session and didn´t break down.
I won´t make it to five, I reckon ;-)
Watching a zoo-series now, which is cute and I am thankful I have two monitors, one for posting/surfing, the other for watching TV/DVD :-)
Virtual-wise I am glad I can say "no". Had a "good idea" for my Brother and weee.... did he tell me off. Well, I keep quiet.
Sounds like you had a good week, especially the ice cream.
DeleteWhat a great week celebrating (virtually) some great milestones with your family! How exciting that they are having a boy and so nice to attend the virtual birthday party too - such fun 😁. Wishing you a happy weekend and keep well! Hugs, Jo x
ReplyDeleteMy father would have been thrilled to be a great-grandpa again and to not only have a great-granddaughter but not a great-grandson.
DeleteThank goodness for virtual contacts … not the same but at least it's something.
ReplyDeleteKeep on taking care, my good wishes.
All the best Jan
Thanks, Jan
DeleteSounds like a great week! I've been having problems sleeping too!
ReplyDeleteI think lots of people are having sleeping issues at this time
Deletesounds like a good week ...except for the power - but then again you got power and didn't have to carry buckets to flush.
ReplyDeletei don't think i could ever stay up until 2 again in my life. I was always good at that when I had kids and didn't have a minute to myself when they were little. but now....Only when I have a margarita am i stuck awake all night. sugar is not my friend especially mixed with alcohol. ugh
