I worked on updating the onQ site for the Winter term today. Then needed to make a copy of it for another section but alas you can only copy past courses and not future courses so I had to put a ticket in and hope that I can sort this out tomorrow. Tomorrow I also hope to make the Winter term project groups, I just am trying to understand the residence cohorting system before I start.
Yesterday I put in 2 amazon orders. When I put in the first order, it immediately broke it into 2 orders both arriving on Monday. One of the things I ordered was a 1 kg package of M&Ms. (I know that it sounds like a lot but it lasts a long time). I had been watching it on Amazon- at the start of the pandemic they were $10 but for the last few months they had been $17. They had been sold out in stores here but recently were back and $15. But this is still too high for me to purchase. So yesterday they were $12. So I gave in and ordered one.
But then James realized that his hair clay was out and the only place to get it is amazon and it had been out on amazon but I looked again (after I put in the first order) and the original listing that I had purchased from was out but a very similar looking pot was available (I only just read it and it is not the same, so we'll see what James thinks) so I put what I thought was the hair clay in the cart and guess what Amazon suggested? A 1kg bag of M&Ms for the original $10! Was it just waiting for me to purchase it at a higher price? Sneaky amazon!
At any rate this second order is due to arrive a day before the first order- on Sunday. Their delivery speed has slowed as they must be managing high volumes.
Tomorrow I have to scoot to Loblaws to pick up some things. I'll go first thing in the morning when it hopefully will be clean and quiet. James has a bunch of hockey in the evening.
