unicorndukeWork has been busy and tedious. We're gearing up for our big seed course again starting next week and the videos we're using from another organization don't have closed captions. We knew this from last year, since they're the same videos but we super didn't have time last year. But I figured out that office 365 word has a transcription ability and it honestly pretty solid. So I've been running all the videos through that, editing them since the program gets a little confused sometimes and uploading transcripts. I'm almost done with the videos that students have access to right now and waiting to hear back from our support person if they're able to add captions to other videos. If not, more transcript work for me. It takes about an hour for a fifteen minute video, which includes the time to play the video and have the program work. ETA: and my boss just said to add two more people into the course, which takes the same amount of time as adding the first 100. :\
We are settling in for a storm tomorrow night, predicted 6-12 inches of snow with some wind. I need to do my storm prep tomorrow morning, get out emergency bin, fill buckets of water, move things under cover that need to be under cover, make sure I know where the backup heater is, bump the heat up, make sure to have some made food on hand. I didn't get the generator fixed yet, it's on my list for next week for sure but with this amount of snow, I wouldn't expect the power to be out for more than a day. If it is, the backup indoor rated propane heater will get us through.
It's going to rain Wednesday and be 50F, so it'll just turn into a nasty mess.
I've been taking advantage of after-holiday sales and ordered some fabric (hoodie fleece and denim), and PowerBlock weights. I felt bad for the poor fedex delivery person who dropped them off, they're heavy. I need to figure out some kind of storage thing for them, my yoga mat and resistance bands in the living room. They're just in a pile right now. Maybe a tiny cabinet or something. If I build something, I need to buy more planks since I'm out of the nice stuff.
I finished warping my next weaving project with only one counting mistake so that's good. Hopefully I can start getting it on the loom soon. It feels like I'm cranking through a lot of crafting stuff because I've had time even with work being busy. I started spinning on my electric wheel laying in bed and that's been wonderful because my feet can be toasty warm while I spin. I somehow lost the pattern book I was using for my sweater, I can't find it anywhere and there's not that many places it could be. I wonder if it fell out of my project bag at my parents or something, but I haven't seen it in months so I don't really know. I ordered another copy because it was $10 and it should be here soon which is great because I'm getting to the point where I need to do the arm gusset and I don't know how to do that.
Mara's hanging in there. still happy enough and eating and drinking and sniffing everything.
Sidejob work suddenly got busy, I had three requests this week, so that will start taking up some of my crafting time.
