Talent Show

We just had a wonderful experience at work. We were invited to put together a five minute video, displaying our talent for Talent Show shown through Microsoft Teams. There were nine folks who put together a short clip on their own time and they were displayed to our colleagues over lunch. There are some seriously talented musicians at our office! I submitted a video of some aerobatic maneuvers I did a few weeks ago. You can check it out here: Lizzy McFly Aerobatics. Events like the talent show are nice little morale boosters, which we all need right now!

Our office also supported Pink Shirt Day again this year, but we sold pink masks instead of shirts. I believe this was our ninth year doing this, and we had a great turnout. Another donation to a worthy cause was made. Lucky me – I have a pink cat to support this event!

Mike and I have been using the curbside pickup service offered by the grocery store. We learned that when ordering bananas online, the quantity is “bunches” and not “singles”. I thought we would get four single banananananas. Oops:

As you can imagine, our potassium levels are quite good right now!

Our sad looking little visitor was back recently. I love looking at this face!

Mike and I went for a flight last weekend. It appeared to be nice and clear around St. Catharines and Niagara. It was a different story once we got up to about 3000′. I called the tower and filed a pilot report that the cloud layer was at about 2000′ and totally solid in all directions. Since we were confined to a rather small area to fly around, we decided to do some aerobatics.

COVID certainly has put a crimp on my joy of taking people up for such a fun experience. I have a list of folks looking to go up for either a purely scenic flight or some aerobatics. My favourite little copilot, Stella, is first on the list to go! She did aerobatics with me when she was seven and she handled them better than most of the adults I’ve taken up. I sure hope we can fly again before she turns nine!

Today’s symptoms: It’s going ok although I’ve been having lots of nerve pain the last couple of days. My energy has been fairly decent though, which is more than I can ask for! Although both really suck, I can usually get through the days better with less fatigue even when the pain levels are high. I’m hoping for good weather and decent symptom days on the weekend so we can go for another flight. Getting out for a flight during the pandemic has done wonders for my mental health.
