Gee Brandy, I would have thought that you would have been potty trained by now...
Maybe it was a refresher course...
Wow. Not only does my name get spelled wrong, but two people act as if they've never heard of a pork chop launcher and are courting danger!

The sad thing is, the only way to keep the toddler on the potty is by surrendering my tablet so he can play toddler games.
The good thing is, 4 days after starting this and one day not being able to do it at all because of a work emergency, he's finally figured out to tell us when he's left something in the potty because it means he gets to play with the faucet (washing his hands is a necessary evil to get to splash water) and get a cracker or cookie in response. I started out with stickers. They worked a bit, but he much prefers his grandpa's gingersnaps.
He hasn't quite figured out how to tell us when he needs to go potty, so all we can do is get him seated on it until he goes. I'm really hoping this isn't going take very long.

As with all things around here, it depends ....
It was a very long time ago, but our son figured it out in about a month, while our daughter took the longest year of our lives year ...

Same here. My otherwise borderline insanely obstinate son figured it out within a couple of weeks. My daughter was months and months of struggle. Although, lead to some great stories which we retell to her horror.

Break your wrist on a bicycle ride so you only have one hand to type with and no immediate backup person to help out...
Yeah, I managed to do one heck of a number on my wrist, thankfully not my "strong" hand, but still...
Try doing all your typing with one hand...
As they say in the theatre business, next time, break a leg 😉
😎
Frankly, I'dve been happier if it had been my forearm instead of the wrist, probably in a cast for a while and done, instead of surgery tomorrow...

I've not had to ever have something like that done to an appendage. You won't need it but I wish you both the best of luck and a speedy recovery, Jason,

I'm too busy dancing to take videos, but I might be able to find something online.

I finally found something online. This is from the LCFD Dance Camp in 2011. LCFD is the Lavender Country and Folk Dancers an LGBTQ+ folk dance community based in Boston, MA. I'm WAY in the back on the right in a tan shirt and black shorts (and knee braces). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJcmYCbrCIo
This is contra dancing, but I spend much more time square dancing. They have similar roots, but they have diverged somewhat.

Nice, Drew. Moving well with the knee braces.
The group moving, flowing, and switching is somewhat hypnotizing. Neat to see.
Thanks

Seeing as his death was in 1791, I certainly hope you didn't do it. I feel old sometimes, but I don't think any of us are that old. 🙂

always figured you to be more of a Bach fan.
Y'know, you grow up and pick up an instrument, and you learn about all these people in the far off mists of time, and it feels like such a long, long time ago.
Then you grow up and find out that your family crossed the pond in 1643 and was farming in Pennsylvania and Ohio by the time Mozart was entertaining the court. Weird.
Kinda like finding out that Oxford is older than the Aztecs.
