Around Here Lately

Life in general:

Schools are open in our area, despite the Omicron madness. Getting official testing done seems arcane and nearly impossible (because hours for walk-ins are very short and inconvenient, scheduling a test on-line hasn't worked, and if you call, the voicemail is full). I guess if we are actually sick with symptoms, we can do it through our doctor's office or pediatrician (? maybe ?) But if we want to test after a potential exposure, or even without a known exposure just to be hyper-vigilant - then I don't know. We have a couple of home tests that we are holding on to, to be used only when absolutely necessary (however, the school does not accept results of home tests). 

Movies:

Our family watched a couple of Mission Impossible movies last weekend. The first one was fun. MI2 was pretty awful. I don't think we'll be watching MI3 anytime soon. We may go back to watching old James Bond movies...

Our kids really like Clue. I am thinking, they might also like Arsenic and Old Lace.

Books:

We've been reading Brothers Grimm stories. I totally forgot how dark and murderous they get... Kids love it! Perfect for long winter evenings in front of the fireplace...
