o_O

Dymo label printer? In English, por favor?

Oh, it is a brand of label printer that works with computers. https://letmegooglethat.com/?q=dymo+lab ... in+english is a snarky link to various pages with more info if you want it. As for the flexibility, that is true, as long as I have the ability to do some things it is better than nothing! Now that I've fixed the vacuum I just have to fix the toilet seat, I think the pump might have gone out on it.

Oh man, today I ended up cutting it close but just barely managed to get the study info submitted. Also, if you have a conditional that is phrased something like "after I get out of bed in the morning" can technically still count it as being done if you never got into bed the night before? I would think it would be better to do the action than leave it undone, but if one isn't careful with wording it could be tempting not to sleep in order to get out of writing 2 sentences!

After not sleeping two days ago and then going to bed early yesterday in hopes of resetting my sleep schedule I can safely say that I have been unsuccessful. I guess I may have to start attempting to try i+1 when it comes to getting to bed...it's either that or just accepting that I have a very abnormal sleep schedule. As for my i+1 journal, hopefully I can get my 7/7 this week!

I would think that "after I get out of bed in the morning" means that once you wake up, thus starting a NEW day. So I would think its more about what you do once you wake up... right?

Oh! So if I just don't sleep then I don't have to worry about starting a new day! Well, until I can figure out how to manage something like the Dymaxion sleep schedule I will just do what I usually do. I may have missed yesterday, but I still have plenty to do today.

The windstorm today really set back my i+1 actions for the day, but at least it didn't make the day an i-1! Not the best way to start May, but not the worst!

Well put! Yeah exactly, better an 'i' day than an i-1! Especially since our i's increase naturally over time (new normal) as we adopt and eventually automatize new habit actions!

Oh yeah, I had not considered it from that perspective, but that is an even better way to look at it!

So shall you make a motion to do the class this Sunday? I can tell everyone that we were having issues and that is why we haven't sent out links yet.

Also, good idea to have a Plan B just in case something like this were to happen again, since because of the nature of tickets and that jazz its quite impossible to 'cancel' a class. So maybe a good Plan B could be to have a few slides made up just in case? I mean even showing up and just talking about chemistry in general could work too.

Yes, I think that would be a good motion and I will just find a place where I can set up my science equipment and carry out the experiments without the wind going crazy on me. Having a plan B is definitely a good idea, but I didn't really have the option to show up and talk about anything since the entire reason I couldn't present was related to the large tent that was sliding around knocking everything over, it kind of forced me to stop everything I was doing and take everything that was outside inside in a hurry. I mean, even with two other people helping me glassware still got broken, so I don't want to imagine what would have happened had I been on my own.
