Hello. Welcome to Daily ish for Wednesday, November 16. It's currently zero degrees. Feels like minus six with the, the old wind chill. This is not a weather podcast.
Speaker 1:This is not a daily podcast. This is a very much an ish podcast, but it's brought to you by Feed Press.

Speaker 1:I always, preface it by saying because I don't know while I'm when I'm while I'm recording if it's all actually working properly. It feels like it is, but, sometimes there's gremlins and then, things don't work out properly. So but if all goes well, there'll be a video version of this episode because I haven't done one in a long time, and, that's part of what I want to do for Patreon folks is a video version of the podcast and occasionally at least, and probably should like I've said many times, probably should have a routine. Like every Wednesday, I do a video version of Daily ish if nothing else. So that's a thing I should probably do, but I'm not ready to commit to that yet because as you know I've been a bit silent lately on the podcast and my primary excuse this this month, this well, this last week anyways is it's been about seven days of varying amounts of sickness primarily, of the oral variety.
Speaker 1:Things coming out the mouth that, you're hoping wouldn't. Stomach bugs in our house and knock on wood and all those things. Two of the five of us in the house have not gotten it. Our oldest son and myself have not gotten it. Everybody else has had it in varying forms.
Speaker 1:And as you can imagine, a a four year old, six year old who, once they're awake and stuff, no problem getting the buckets or whatever and stuff, but, sometimes in the middle of the night, not always aware that that, things are are moving, that are things are escaping their their mouth as they sleep. And so then you wake up to faces, etcetera, full of things and, sheets full of things. And, I'll spare you because maybe you're having breakfast while you listen to this. I certainly wouldn't wanna listen to it. Although it has been a topic of discussion, as you can imagine, within our family for the last week.
Speaker 1:So hopefully, we seem to be mostly on the mend. There's still a couple we're not sending a couple of them to school and stuff today just because to be safe rather than sorry and spread it around to other people, which is probably how we got in the first place because somebody, you know, was out and about and didn't just stay home like they should. So that's the lesson here for everybody is stay home a day or two. They say like forty eight hours after the last puke. There's a common myth I think that, you know, you're only, what's the word?
Speaker 1:You're only, spreading it, you're only, contagious during like before and during maybe, and once you're done it's you know visible signs symptoms and stuff are gone, but it's it's really not true because, one kid for example just last puked on Friday I think it was and then all of a sudden Sunday night puked again. Just it was still hanging around. And kids often aren't great barometers of knowing what's actually going on with their system because they can be like completely fine, and then, yeah, all of a sudden they need to throw everything up. So as I can attest to, but I won't again, I said I'd spare you all the details and, so so that's where I've been. As a result, this last week was supposed to be, the kids had Thursday, Friday, and Monday off from school, so supposed to be this awesome long weekend.
Speaker 1:We had something up with some friends on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night and canceled on most of that because we just ended up staying home. So and it was actually really nice weather outside too. So we did it's nice like I mean you complain it's better than being like minus 30 outside which it could be with tons of snow where you don't even want to go outside then when your kids are sick. Least now when it's you know it was plus 10, and so we were able to get in the backyard at least a bit and and just sort of get out of the house and breathe some fresh air and have some windows open. As you can imagine, that's, kind of a nice thing when the house is otherwise feeling a little bit contagious and smelling like yuck.
Speaker 1:And so, yeah, that's where life has been lately, and so now I'm trying to play catch up both on the sleep side as well as the work side. I'm just trying to get things going. So as you can imagine, in a house with three kids, two adults, one adult goes down with something and something obviously has to suffer whether it's the house and family life or the business life and work getting done, and so it's been a bit of both depending on who you ask in the family which slide has suffered more, but that's where we've been. So hopefully you haven't had a bad start to November. We're just now as you maybe I'll cut to I have some footage of, some snow lightly falling here a bit.
Speaker 1:We're supposed to get about five centimeters today, it doesn't seem like it's sticking around in any real way. The ground is too warm. But again, this is not a weather podcast. But I know there's those of you who are far away don't even get snow or or don't even realize that snow maybe happens for some folks this time of year already. And so that's I thought I'd shoot some video while I'm recording this of, snow falling in our backyard.
Speaker 1:So all that being said, maybe I'll see you next Wednesday, hopefully sooner. And, thank you very much for sticking around, subscribe staying subscribed, supporting me on Patreon, through this, and, we've got some, we're almost oh, we're so close getting there ish with the good stuff, projects, behind the scenes stuff that kind of building some frameworks for what's to come. But I know, we're Kyle and I are are hard to work on that kind of stuff and wanting to show you guys, you folks sooner than later, but I just have to make sure it's ready. So, in the meantime, keep fit, have fun, body break. Thanks for listening.
Speaker 1:Have a good day. Bye.
