Or you could put the rent up?
5.8 this morning. Yesterday wrote up notes on new breathing exercise. Am really looking forward to teaching the breathing exercises they need to do to prepare for the more difficult breathing exercise next week.
It worked really well. I loved typing in time with it.Yes, I remember the William Tell Overture to the clicking of the keyboard.
Yes, although much kinder to our fingers it was quite hard to get used to the electric typewriter.Those old typewriters were much easier for me to use because our fingers were above the keys rather than sideways on as they are on a modern keyboard. It took a lot of force to tap the keys down. Our keyboards were covered as well, while we learned where the keys were to be found, but we didn't have music. The pressure required on the keys made it a bit difficult for me to transfer onto an electric typewriter because I kept ending up with duplicated letters due to the sensitivity of the electric keyboard. Unfortunately, I was working in a legal office at the time, keying in wills and so on, which had to be perfect and unaltered to fix mistakes. Made for fast learning.
Is that skier jolly, or out of control?Good morning everyone from a pre-sunrise start here in the dark and dangerous north. Still positive - blast. Ordered more test kits, thankfully I am not required to pay for them. The whole atmosphere of the house changed yesterday as Mrs Miggins decided that we need to prepare for winter. So, all the light bedding off and replaced with a quilt - ooh! It was like sleeping under the gravitational influence of Jupiter. The fire was also lit last night. After an hour it was like we had been having a lunchtime nap on Shipwreck Beach. Still, the heating has not come on yet so I have only charged her for the briquettes and a couple of logs. Art bit, another Zen brush stroke using red sumi-e ink. I hope the unfolding day is a good one for you. I need to make some koffy.

You would be better off Alf differentiating twice and finding the max min points!Good Morning Ladies and Gentlemen and those who remember how to tie shoe laces.
Blood sugars this morning were 4.7 drat, grump and mutter, now to raise them just enough to be able to ride my motorcycle, but not overshoot, it is possible, but partial differentiation ( calculus ) is easier.
Now I must wish you all well, stay safe and horror upon horrors Strickly come Dancing is back on the idiot box and Mrs J insists on watching it, but luckily fast forwards through waffley bits. Shame Mrs J doesn’t fast forward through the whole thing.

I also learnt to type at school on an Imperial, no shield. But my disadvantage was I could not hear the gramophone record playing. I had no idea it was music playing that you were supposed to keep in time with. So, obviously I went my own sweet way typing much to the teacher's annoyance with me. She didn't understand the concept of deafness, and I did not understand the concept of music. I was the only deaf child in an all hearing school.I also learnt to type on an imperial. Luckily it didn't have a shield.
We had to keep in time with the William Tell Overture - which was great fun.

Thank you @gennepherArt bit is very light and joyful @dunelm
Thank you for sharing the creative with all these autumn colours - well, to me anyhow. Those badgers must be being well fed as they look very powerful. I was surprised how they seem so wary of Midnight but this explained more for me.. Good news on the breakfast. Quadruple winner - taste, cost, very socially distanced and effect on bg. I hope the nap is/was (and ever shall be) good.Fbg 6.5
I was out this morning. I was also checking the menu on the car, and the so called safety features on the car. I have looked at them before and the names/terms used did not mean a thing to me. But I have been googling and YouTubing the features my car has. Many of them were already turned on when I got the car, and I was debating turning some off because they were downright annoying. My daughter from Australia, when she was here, wanted to turn these features off, because she found the alarms annoying, and they did distract me because I wasn't expecting them. But they were completely new to me and I simply wasn't expecting them. She has similar alarms in her car in Australia and she turned them all off.
This week my project is to find out all the extra safety features this car has, Google & YouTube...and get the car manual out of the glove box.
The cruise feature looks useful for coming down my steep hill. By the way Cruise on my car starts at 20mph. According to the YouTube video for my car you either flick a switch to override it, or floor a pedal - I presume the brake pedal, but I need to watch all these videos a few times more...
I won't be attempting it yet...

3 Badgers - Ma & Pa & their boy Badger on a stormy rainy night
Only 3 badgers this night of the badger family. There's the male badger, his female badger, and their son, whom I called a boy badger because he looked like his father and copies his father (but obviously I have no idea of the sex of the young badgers, yet).
There is a girl badger, again I called it a girl because it looked very much like the mum, but Again I have no idea as to the sex. But I have not seen the girl badger for a bit. She was smaller than her brother who has got quite big now.
The boy badger is nearly as big as his dad and copies his dad trying to look on the swing. The female badger has shown no interest looking on the swing.

Creative is an acrylic painting done in the garage. These will be used for my postcard friends. But I am not finishing them off with actual paint or drawings yet (that will come when the recipient says their interests for subject of the postcard). I am putting the acrylic paintings into Procreate and trying out some ideas, which I may or may not use for the finished paintings....
I like the waterfalls (I created in Procreate) on this one, and it would be easy enough to re create them with my Posca pens.
I need a nap. I am tired now.
Catch you later.
Have a good day...

It was such a shame that your teacher did not understand the concept of deafness. You would have thought that a teacher would have been the one person who would have completely understood the concept of deafness. Although looking back to my school days there were some teachers who perhaps should never have been teachers.I also learnt to type at school on an Imperial, no shield. But my disadvantage was I could not hear the gramophone record playing. I had no idea it was music playing that you were supposed to keep in time with. So, obviously I went my own sweet way typing much to the teacher's annoyance with me. She didn't understand the concept of deafness, and I did not understand the concept of music. I was the only deaf child in an all hearing school.
