7:55 am

EvaNadine

welp. good morning all.
happy monday.

7:56 am

hokie carla

hey eva

8:02 am

mael

hey all, I'm back

8:02 am

hokie carla

did the kids dress up for school or is that no longer?

8:03 am

mael

nah, school doesn't want the distraction

8:03 am

hokie carla

of course

8:03 am

EvaNadine

Kieran's school doesn't do anything halloween-related during the school day.
they had a trunk or treat after school this past friday.
(in our area, it's up to the specific school)

8:03 am

mael

but we're going trick or treating as soon as they get out, we always go in their grandparents' neighborhood

8:04 am

BzznBea

Ha! Halloween is a distraction in itself.

8:04 am

hokie carla

we are at the beach, I'm hoping there are no kids coming around here.

8:04 am

mael

they did halloween themed cratfs in school last friday

8:05 am

hokie carla

so, there was a big pickleball tournament here this weekend, and I ran into my elem. school PE teacher. I recognized her but she did know me when I told her my name because she remembered my brother's name too.

8:06 am

mael

that's real sweet!

8:06 am

hokie carla

but she was saying she thinks about the stuff we did in gym class and wonders how we're all still alive

8:06 am

mael

lol yeah

8:07 am

hokie carla

FTR, 1987 was the last year I was in elem. and my brother is 4 years older. she has a good memory! it was a small school, only 2 classes in each grade.

8:07 am

EvaNadine

like dodgeball? lol

8:08 am

Scrabbler

Eva is here. Nice to see you. How is K enjoying kindergarten?

8:08 am

hokie carla

lol, we didn't even mention dodgeball. I said like climbing the rope all the way to the top of the rafters? she was thinking those "scooters" that you sit on and we'd have our friends pull us with a rope and try to sling us off.

8:09 am

Scrabbler

We did all of that dangerous stuff too.

8:09 am

mael

10 left

8:10 am

hokie carla

11 left here

8:10 am

EvaNadine

or "indian leg wrestling" as we called it -- it's a wonder we didn't break our necks flipping each other over!

8:11 am

EvaNadine

Hi Scrabs!
he is thriving!
he will tell you "it's boring" but he is learning so much!

8:11 am

Scrabbler

Did you do that tinikling with the bamboo poles? I am surprised there were not anklefractures.

8:11 am

hokie carla

LOL, I know what that is. don't remember specifically doing it myself but have witnessed it.

8:11 am

hokie carla

oh, we did not have bamboo poles

8:11 am

Scrabbler

I love the age group from 3-6. So precious and sweet.

8:12 am

hurshy

i liked when we played with a big parachute

8:12 am

EvaNadine

i remember the bamboo poles -- it was some sort of "dancing" if i recall correctly...

8:12 am

hokie carla

yes, parachute day was always exciting

8:12 am

Scrabbler

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiniklin\ng

8:13 am

mael

6 left, all 4s and 5s

8:13 am

hokie carla

wow, I have never seen that

8:13 am

mael

we just played rounders and it was miserable haha

8:13 am

Scrabbler

And the trampoline with classmates spotting around the border, like one kid could catch another.

8:13 am

Scrabbler

Go mael, go.

8:14 am

hurshy

nice grid

8:14 am

Scrabbler

What is rounders, mael? Hi hurshy.

8:14 am

hokie carla

lol, so true. we did not have a trampoline, but one of my friends that lived near school did and I remember walking to her house as a class and jumping on her trampoline.

8:15 am

hokie carla

we played a lot of what we called chinese jump rope, but that was at recess, not gym

8:15 am

Scrabbler

Pediatricians hate backyard trampolines---so, so many injuries, some severe.

8:16 am

hokie carla

yes, apparently insurance companies do too

8:17 am

Scrabbler

Often 2 or more kids are injured at the same time, when kids collide or fly off as missiles.

8:20 am

mael

my kids are clumsy enough without adding a trampoline, thanks

8:20 am

hokie carla

yeah, I bought my youngest a t-shirt when he was little that had a stick figure falling and said "I do all my own stunts". that about sums it up.

8:21 am

mael

4 left, two Ds, two Ss, two 4s, two 5s. It's vexing!

8:21 am

hurshy

i loved chinese jump rope at recess

8:21 am

hokie carla

me too, hurshy!

8:21 am

hurshy

my nephew does ninja warrior stuff... it's pretty impressive

8:21 am

hokie carla

I have 10 left 1-6-3 - S H DDD AA FF C

8:21 am

hurshy

but that is an extracurricular activity at a ninja warrior gym place

8:22 am

hokie carla

well do kids even have recess?

8:22 am

mael

ohh, two left.

8:22 am

mael

mine have plenty of recess haha

8:22 am

hokie carla

we had morning recess, lunch recess, and ice cream recess in the afternoon.

8:23 am

mael

ice cream recess sounds like a recipe for disaster

8:24 am

hokie carla

seems like there was always a melted push-up on the ground

8:26 am

mael

1 left! a bottom s4!

8:26 am

hokie carla

I have that S gray

8:26 am

Scrabbler

*holding my breath*

8:26 am

hokie carla

so she will get it any second

8:27 am

mael

got it! hahahah I can't believe I'd missed that for the whole grid

8:27 am

mael

FW, what a pleasant board today

8:27 am

hokie carla

was it austin power's favorite word?

8:27 am

mael

it was

8:28 am

hokie carla

well done, it is a good one. but I'm still stuck with 10.

8:28 am

hokie carla

powers's I guess

8:28 am

MollyL

We played a lot of games that caused injury. I remember people getting hurt playing Red Rover all the time.

8:28 am

Scrabbler

Haha

8:28 am

hokie carla

I think people got hurt on parachute day

8:30 am

MollyL

And remember those merry-go-round things that spun? I Loved those things but apparently they caused a lot of injuries too.

8:31 am

hokie carla

I have had bad motion sickness my entire life, so I never got on those

8:32 am

MollyL

And see-saws, there is a recipe for disaster

8:33 am

mael

it's funny because a lot of the things you don't see in american playgrounds anymore are still around in Italy

8:33 am

mael

so my kids always have a moment of uncertainty

8:34 am

MollyL

No more sandboxes either

8:34 am

hokie carla

we had 2 metal slides, and one was pretty high. I had a friend that broke an arm twice falling off the big slide somehow.

8:34 am

mael

all the playgrounds here still have sandboxes

8:34 am

MollyL

Or metal slides to fry your shorts wearing ass

8:35 am

mael

you could have fried an egg on those slides

8:35 am

MollyL

I am surprised to hear that playgrounds still have sandboxes. They are supposed to be hotbeds of infection.

8:36 am

hokie carla

we never had a sandbox at my school playground

8:37 am

mael

yeah, I can't think of a single playground around here that doesn't have a giant sandbox. Not at school, but in town

8:37 am

MollyL

Sandboxes..."One study found that they harbored 2,000 times more bacteria, yeast, and mold per square inch than the door handles of public restrooms"

8:38 am

hokie carla

we had the 2 slides, monkey bars, a big jungle gym, and a high and low bar, and a lot of grass to play football in.

8:38 am

mael

sounds about right, molly. My kids still love them though

8:38 am

hokie carla

I think it's due to the wild animals pooping in them, right?

8:39 am

MollyL

Oh I totally loved the sandbox when I was a kid. It's a wonder I never got any of the skeevy diseases they warn about.

8:40 am

mael

probably, hokie

8:42 am

saanichcat

skeevy is a great word, hadn't heard it before

8:44 am

LuvWordGames

And this is why kids get sick so easily, they're wrapped in bubble wrap and not allowed to "eat their pound of dirt".

8:44 am

hokie carla

well apparently I am maxed out at 148 words. guess I will play some other games and see what happens.

8:44 am

MollyL

I agree with that

8:45 am

MollyL

Kids need to get dirty and get exposed to germs to build up immunities

8:47 am

LuvWordGames

yep

8:48 am

Scrabbler

Except SARS-CoV-2. That is one nasty virus causing mass disability and death.

8:50 am

LuvWordGames

Totally agree Scrabs. Unfortunately DIL is a germaphob (sp?) about so many things but won't get kids vaccinated against Covid.

8:51 am

mael

oh mine see plenty of germs and get all their vaccines :)

8:52 am

Scrabbler

#1 mitigation = N95 mask when indoors. Our children are endangered at schools and day cares because of no mask mandate and poor ventilation/filtration.

8:56 am

mael

have a great day everyone! heading out :)

8:56 am

Scrabbler
