Lord, could someone please tell me where the time goes? I have a lot to update, but for now, I just wanted to share my Shrinky Dink solution for anyone who, as I am, is faced with shrinking 105 5th grade art projects before next week. I struggled for a very long time with curling projects which broke my heart every time I had to salvage one. I've managed to save all but one so far (sorry little ruined soul!). The secret is weight. I'm cooking them at 300 degrees on top of a piece of parchment paper, then covered by another piece of parchment and then these really thin (think report cover weight) cardboard sheets. That amount of weight allows them to shrink, but not curl! Hooray! Hooray!
On other fronts, I got unceremoniously dumped on my keister when the spin bike seat failed at my local gym while I was seated upon it. Xrays show no breaks, just some pulled ligaments and a sore butt. Stupid gym didn't even care. Sent a standard form letter stating "saftey is their primary concern". Their primary concern is doing as little work as they can while raking in the membership fees. Monopolies suck.
