well, I have emerged from the Olympics cycle…

I have watched all kinds of sports, some for the first time…

as mentioned previously, I like to watch in real time and managed to do that for a good portion of the sports I was interested in… although I did sleep through one of the medals that Canada won, lol… it meant a lot of 2:30 and 4:00 am wake-up’s…

my hope for every event that I watch is that each person does their best and I like flipping between channels, if I can, to hear commentary from different points of view…

I am less interested in team sports such as soccer or basketball or football… and I’m not too fond of fighting in any of its numerous forms…

the technology at these games had some interesting highlights… I was particularly taken with the cauldron;-)…

I am happy that this portion is over and I have a few weeks before the Paralympics begin…

hopefully there will be lots of it on tv and Gem as well;-)…

I’ve been spending a lot of time in the bedroom, lol…

during the Olympics I try to watch as many live events as possible… so this year that means quite a lot of middle of the night viewing…

and, if what is on isn’t one of my favourites, I cast shows to the tv… currently that only happens on the bedroom tv…

I do love casting… particularly as I’ve finally figured out how to do it easily, lol…

I’ve been able to watch surfing, sailing, equestrian, rowing, and trampoline that way…

I am sure I could win a medal if watching the Olympics was a sport🤪…

On Friday morning I turned the switch on one of the new solar lights that are currently hanging in the dining room…

later in the day it was lit for just a few minutes which was amazing as there hadn’t really been much sunshine…

when I looked into the living/dining area after dark, it was on again…

and casting a beautiful pattern on the floor…

on Saturday, I hung up two in the dining room and switched all on… then I put one outside by the backdoor…

lovely patterns everywhere…

happy that I figured out how to cast Facebook Live onto my tv…

I’m sure others have been doing this for ages, lol… I’ve done it a few times with my photos but not often enough to remember how to do it easily;-)…

I think it is funny what things I can do without a problem and others which I’m not comfortable with just yet…

I’ve enjoyed watching the programs that Assiniboine Park and Zoo have been presenting… they are on Facebook Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 1 pm CDT… nice to see the animals close up and learn some interesting things about how the keepers work with them…

much nicer on the tv screen than on my phone;-)…

gonna keep practicing…
