Microwave Fire

I bought a glass canister with silicone on the outside to microwave popcorn. (We usually use a paper bag, but the bags have had bottom seal issues and keep opening up during microwaving.)

This got good reviews and I wanted glass for the microwave instead of plastic.  First time -- 60 seconds in and a flames inside the bowl.  Turns out others have had the same issue when you go further in the bad reviews.  Returning today and feeling lucky I was watching it.  Back to the bags.

In Spanish news -- I feel like I'm "getting it" more and more.  Had to send an email to mi maestra and I did it completely in Spanish that I knew (didn't want to look up words).  I needed to modify how I said certain things, but all in all A++++ for me going outside my box.  The return email all in Spanish and kudos --- plus some corrections on the things I didn't really know the best way to word.  No class this weekend because of Memorial Day.

Painted a shark from a rock I found -- I planned something else, but it looked just like a shark's mouth so I went with it.  Here's a collection of the next ones to be left on a trail.

We're having trouble with our yard and parties involved say it's issue with the other -- of course.  The fertilizer company is coming "sometime this morning" to look and speak with me.  Totally messing up walking, but I don't care -- doing it anyway and figuring it out.  Life Coaching at 2 o'clock and hubby gets back from golf just at that time.  Today isn't timing out very well given how open the day is -- it's a pet peeve of mine.  All day free yet somehow unable to freely do the little things I need to do.

Spanish instructor recommended Jim Kwik on YouTube for memory and learning advice.  I watched a bit of his talks yesterday and he's interesting.  I like some of his suggestions -- one is listening to Baroque classic music while learning (these sound waves and the music count can help).  I'm going to try it today while I'm studying Spanish.  Also, lots of overlap with what I already believe -- thoughts, beliefs run our lives, be open and curious, etc.

That's what's what today.  Have a great day and stay well.  Later gators.
