Lately I have been feeling so out of my routine and I've been lacking self-discipline so in this video I challenged myself to wake up at 5 a.m. every day for a week. I know back to school is coming up soon and we've probably all fallen off our routines this summer so I hope this motivates you for whatever you have to wake up early for. Changing my alarm to oh god oh god 5 a.m. and it is 10 56. Getting to bed pretty late. I'm hoping tomorrow I can get to bed a bit earlier so not horrible but not ideal either. Okay good night. Happy Monday. I'm honestly not as tired as I thought that I was gonna be today so we're starting the week off strong but I'm just trying to like really wake myself up here because I really don't want to have to nap this week like if I can not nap that would be like the best key scenario just because I can make the most out of the day that way if I have to take like a quick 20 minutes with the fake of the deal but I really don't want to that I can get the full 5 a.m. experience. I went to bed at about 10 o'clock last night but then I couldn't really fall asleep because my body's not adjusted so I think I'm just running off pure journaling right now because I slowly feel so good like this is a must if you're gonna wake up early. Okay let's get ready for the day. Hi yoga. I felt so good. I honestly haven't done yoga in a while. I've been falling off of it but it feels really good to be back and do it again. I just do like a music video. I just did a 10 minute video that I'll link down below.  I thought that I had a workout class book this morning but it's actually for tomorrow so I'm just gonna go on a walk and get some exercise in. It's a beautiful summer day and it's actually already kind of light outside so it's perfect but yeah I do actually really like walking in the morning because what I do is I put headphones on and then I listen to affirmation um that's something I've been doing recently and I feel really really good and like on top of the world after doing that so would recommend for sure but yeah let's go on our little morning walk. You guys I'm actually so shocked because it is like just past 9.30 right now and I'm at the grocery store. I already showered. I already did an hour walk. I did yoga. I did my journaling. I did everything like I didn't like do my makeup yet. I don't even know if I'm gonna do makeup today but I got myself all ready for the day basically and it's not even 10 o'clock yet and I'm at the grocery store already. I forgot how good waking up at 5 feels in terms of like productivity and I'm not saying you need to wake up at 5 to be productive but usually I'm like at the grocery store by like midday because my morning routine usually takes so long but the fact that not even 10 o'clock yet and I already did all of that makes me feel so accomplished. It makes me feel so happy um but yeah I honestly might nap today though because I am feeling a bit tired but I'm gonna go home and make a matcha so hopefully that'll give me a little bit of energy to sustain the day but overall I'm feeling a lot better than I thought that I would especially off of only six hours of sleep. Tonight I'm gonna try to get to bed a lot earlier though so I can have a better sleep like an eight hour sleep but it's the first day anyway so I need to get adjusted. The most ideal situation would be not to nap but we'll see. It's happy Tuesday. Honestly the weirdest thing happened and I woke up three minutes before my alarm. When I woke up I thought that I was gonna have like hours to sleep but I was shocked at the time because I went to bed at like 9 30 10 last night like almost 10 and I fell asleep I would say within like half an hour just because like I'm still adjusting to going to bed so early but apparently I knocked out all the way until five which is really good and I just woke up naturally which is insane like how does that even happen? I mean I guess that's a good thing though that means that my body got enough sleep if I naturally woke up and I wasn't really tired when I woke up so I have a workout class at seven I gotta leave the house at about 6 40 I would say probably or 6 35 but I'm really excited that I have a workout class today because I haven't worked out in a while just because last week I had my period and so I only did one class last week because like I was kind of dying and I didn't want to push my body like that because I think that's just so unhealthy. There's like moments of your period and moments of the month where you just shouldn't be working out if you have like heavy cramps but yeah I'm just happy that I can go back to go to the gym this week and I realized that yesterday the reason why there wasn't any classes was because it was bc day so I didn't even know that it was a holiday. I was so confused because I thought that I booked it for Monday but anyways I have one book for tomorrow and we'll see about Thursday and Friday but this is like the earliest workout class that I have ever done and it's exciting because it's like you have to get out of bed like if you guys want to wake up early book yourself a workout class because that will actually motivate you to wake up because whenever I tell myself that I'm gonna wake up early if I'm not filming a video if I don't have anything to hold me accountable I am sleeping and if I don't actually put my mind to something and I don't like hold myself accountable I will sleep in so it's nice having something where like you paid for and it's like okay I can't cancel this you know because you don't want to waste your money so it's more motivating.  I know my hair is going to get destroyed because I'm doing an infrared class so it's going to be super hot and it's definitely going to just destroy my hair but it's okay. More quickly and drink my bone broth but I don't think I'm gonna have time to do yoga this morning because it's already 6.15 I don't know how the time goes by so fast like I think I need to be more stern on myself in the morning because I'm literally just so laxie-daisy and I just take time to do everything but now it's literally almost time to go. I don't have to do yoga but which is okay because we're gonna go to a workout class and probably stretch there anyways but let's quickly fill this out so that I'm not rushing out the door. So having the hardest time today with people awake the last two days in my alarm ring I was pretty like not tired like I was honestly fine and this morning I think the sleep deprivation is actually catching up to me because I could have slept for like 10 more hours. I had to really force myself like today was the day the first day I really had to like force myself to get out of bed versus like yesterday and the other day I was just like you know what I can wake up right now you know but I have a workout class this morning at seven again and it's called something to do with like core oxygenation fitness. Not gonna lie I'm dreading it a little bit because I'm so sore from yesterday's workout because it was so good but I feel like once you get into a workout you like get unsoor so it should be fine but I definitely like if I wasn't filming this video I could have easily just slept in because of how tired I'm feeling. It's also because like my body can't naturally go to bed at night I just am not used to that so I have a hard time like falling asleep right away it takes me like half an hour and then throughout the night for some reason last night I was like waking up a bunch. I just don't feel like I had the best sleep at all so I think today might call for a nap like a morning guessing that because yesterday I did not have a nap like I was gonna really find yesterday by the end of the day yes I was tired but I felt really good yesterday so I'm guessing it's just catching up to me a little bit today. What I'm gonna try to do is like go to bed at like 8 30 and then just kind of maybe read or something to help me fall asleep. I believe that I'll do something so I can get a better sleep tomorrow night. I mean tonight. I am very very tired and I know that this workout class is gonna be good though but these are the days where you have to have determination. Motivation is not always gonna be there. Motivation comes and goes as we all know. Today the motivation isn't there so my back up determination she's pulling through today. I'm just gonna sit down now and do my gratitude for having a journal and drink my bone broth as usual. It's really nice just drinking the bone broth in the morning because I don't need to eat anything if I drink it because if I don't have anything to eat before my workouts I usually feel really nauseous but the bone broth is like the perfect thing to drink before because it like fills me up a little bit where I don't get nauseous during my workouts and I feel really great but I don't actually have to like physically eat anything so it's nice I can just have like the drink but yeah I'm so tired I just need to snap out of this and drink my bone broth and go to the class and then I'll be over. It also doesn't really help that it's kind of like a gloomy day today like the sun is not coming out good night I mean see you later. I put my hair up in a bun and now we're gonna head out the door it's currently about like 6 30 leaving a bit early because I do not want to be late okay so let's go. Hey guys so I was just doing some work for today I already feel so productive but anyways if you guys noticed every single morning I have been drinking bone broth. Dr. Kilian is actually sponsoring this video but let me tell you I have been drinking these for six or more months now and they are so amazing if you guys don't already know bone broth is literally like liquid gold if you go to searching up on the internet and just put like benefits probably million will come up because it's so good for you. Before drinking bone broth I used to have like really low energy in the morning I also used to have major gut issues but after incorporating this bone broth into my life and having one every single day I have noticed such an increase in energy in the morning like after a drink yet and also symptoms for my gut has been so much better my body just feels overall more balanced per serving there's 16 grams of protein which is so much and there's only 70 calories and one gram of carbs there's no fat no sugar no cholesterol and it's also made with grass-fed bovine collagen these are all dairy-free gluten-free non-gmo paleo keto friendly all that good stuff they have so many flavors but in each box there are seven servings that's what you see me do every morning I just take out a packet and I just love putting it in hot water and drinking it like a tea you can also make like recipes with it though make it into a soup but personally I just like having it every morning with hot water and that is it because it's so good alone but yeah you guys know if you watch any of my previous videos that I'm a bone broth stan if you guys want to go shop you can go to drkillian.com it'll be linked down below I also have a coupon code for you guys which will be in the description box as well to save you guys some money best bone broth around your headband on right now so don't mind that but happy Thursday I decided to sleep in today until 5 45 just because my body like needed the sleep I went to bed at 9 45 yesterday and I actually like fell asleep right away so I knew that I needed like a full eight hours of sleep for my body to actually function normally this week and also like I don't really want to do any harm to my body so just waking up at 5 45 I feel like make the biggest difference for me and technically it's still five so it's not cheating when I don't get enough sleep and I wake up I feel so nauseous if I have to get up super early to go to the airport or whatever it is and I don't get enough sleep I wake up and I literally need to throw up and I used to work on set I sometimes would have to wake up at like 3 30 a.m like four to five days in a row and oh my gosh you guys while I was driving I had the debate pulling over because I was gonna puke like it's that bad this ice rolling feels so but hey extra good it's crazy because we always tell ourselves like we can't do something I thought that I can never be the person to wake up at 5 a.m I was like doing it for a week there's no way but the thing is is you can do absolutely anything you set your mind to it's all about your mindset shift if you change that mindset to yes I can then so much changes and you actually can everything stems from your mindset you guys and with whatever it is in your life that you can apply that positive mindset to I just feel like so many times we like doubt ourselves we tell ourselves no whatever reasons and we think we can do something but that is not true because look at me guys I'm waking up at 5 a.m and I felt that I could never do this after doing this challenge the last time I actually stuck with it for like a couple months or a few months like I was waking up at 5 a.m and then I stopped I don't know I stopped I forget why and then I became a 5 a.m person so something that I told myself that I could never do I switched my mindset about it and I did it so let's go to show that with anything in life just have a positive mindset about it and that'll change a lot so I don't have like a workout class book today but I booked a candlelight deep relaxation stretch and yoga class for a little bit later today it's at I think 12 so I'll take you guys along to that but it's not just yet so I think I'm still gonna do like my walk in the morning and then we're gonna go to that class a bit later for lunch I just want to sit like this forever I feel so comfy and cozy in this long sleeve right now I don't want to take it off this is really what I need to push myself so cozy right now and I just want to go back to bed oh dang but I am officially ready to commence our walk it's kind of a gloomy day today like this one isn't out yet and it's supposed to be cloudy all day and under 20 degrees but I'm all cozy in my little fleece and my leggings so I'm okay I'm excited to walk this morning and as always on my walk I'm gonna listen to the first 10 minutes of affirmations and then I'm just gonna listen to a podcast or something but it's essential for my morning walk and apparently it's good to listen to affirmations like first thing in the morning or right before you go to bed because apparently that's when your brain is the most absorbent to these types of things so I'm gonna listen to my affirmations first thing so let's go on our walk hey guys so it is a bit later I was just editing all morning and I felt really good that I had so much time to get stuff done but now I just got to oxygen yoga and fitness and I'm gonna go in and do their candlelight deep stretch and relaxation class I'm so excited because I'm on my period and I just feel like my body needs a good stretch especially because I'm so sore from the workout classes this week so I'm just so excited to be zen and have a good stretch and relaxation class yeah I'm so excited let's go in okay guys I just got out of the class it is currently 1 30 and it was so good honestly it was like such a deep stretch and I my body feels so good now like that's what exactly what I needed and we went into like a little shabasa meditation at the end and I'm also really hot because it was heated so I'm gonna go shower I already feel so accomplished like I edited so much already today did this stretch workout we are to do it middle of the day because usually I don't work out or do anything midday like this usually I do everything in the morning but since it was just like stretching was super relaxing and I really liked it yeah good morning you guys happy Friday I'm just excited that tomorrow I get to catch up on my sleep I'll give you guys like an overall analysis tonight of the week but I'm not gonna lie today was really really hard for me to wake up I think it's just because I've been getting basically under eight hours of sleep this whole week and my body like truly needs to sleep like it functions off of sleep but yeah I am just happy that it's the weekend I could take a chill my body can just relax I always take the weekends to do absolutely nothing I never really make plans on the weekends and that's like something going on but I usually just keep the weekends completely open so I can just do whatever my body feels like doing and I make sure to give myself like some good rest I'm probably not even gonna be able to stay awake to watch a movie tonight or something usually means you'll watch a movie on Friday night because I'm gonna be so tired so hopefully maybe I'll actually nap today but went from the beginning of the week being pretty easy and it just got like declined from there that's definitely just because I was just locking this week quickly share this quote with you guys and the quote of the day is choosing to be positive and having a grateful attitude is going to determine how you're going to live your life and I think that is so powerful okay guys all ready to leave I'm just wearing this workout set from Oritzia and then this little quarter zip I thrifted and I'm so cozy in the morning I'd like when I get to class I don't let to go off my sweater and I just feel so cozy so let's head out and get this workout done I just got home I'm literally I don't know if you can tell but I am completely dripping with sweat that class was so good and I'm just like really proud of myself for keeping this promise to myself and pushing myself this week I got so emotional like at the end of the class because I'm like holy shit when you keep promises to yourself it's so impactful and so powerful and it builds yourself confidence so much and that's why keeping promises that you make to yourself is so important because how can you trust yourself if you never keep your promises but yeah I'm feeling on top of the moon I'm gonna go in make my smoothie shower and make coffee and breakfast after officially waking up at 5 a.m for one week I'm honestly really proud of myself like I was explaining earlier it just like promises that you keep yourself are so sacred and I feel so accomplished before doing this video I was just like so out of my routine so I was moving I just got back from vacation and I was just so out of whack doing this honestly like this was one of the most productive weeks like within the past year that I've had and it made me so happy because after every day like I felt so accomplished I feel so accomplished right now that it's over like I could just relax on the weekend and it just feels that much better I did push myself this week and that's where I find happiness in life is having a balance between like pushing myself and also pampering myself at the same time it's when my mental health thrives when I'm working out when I'm on my routine but also having a balanced lifestyle and I just wasn't getting that other aspect before of where I was strict on myself I was sleeping in every day wasn't working out every day all that I did this for a week I am very inspired to keep going I don't know if it's going to be 5 a.m but now that I like really pushed myself this week I know that I could wake up earlier so maybe I'm going to wake up at 6 maybe I'm going to wake up at 7 not sure what I'm going to do yet but this is definitely like re-inspired me to get back on my routine and in like good groove of things because I've just been out of it for so long and now I just feel so much better and I'm so much happier but yeah if you guys are starting school soon and have to wake up early or you wake up early for your job or if you want to wake up early just because I hope that this gave you guys some motivation and I would recommend trying it out for a week and really keep that promise to yourself book the workout class just like hold yourself accountable somehow and make sure that whenever you're creating a new habit you reward yourself because that's the science behind creating a new habit is you have to reward yourself and then your brain is going to actually like crave to do that like literally you're training yourself a dog which reads I'm just like a routine girl lead and I thrive off of having a good routine but anyways I hope you guys enjoyed the video comment down below what time you wake up at and we can kind of compare things in the comments and let me know why you wake up at that time because it's interesting let's compare sleep schedules down below in the comments don't forget to subscribe follow me on instagram tiktok all the social media platforms and also on pinterest but yeah I'll see you guys in my next video thank you guys so much for watching don't miss out on my videos I post every sunday


Founded in 1939, Preservation North Carolina proves how a deep commitment to property work, advocacy, diversity, and leadership leads to excellence in historic preservation. Preservation North Carolina is the state's only private non-profit statewide historic preservation organization. Through its nationally recognized Endangered Properties Program, which acquires threatened sites and then finds willing buyers to rehabilitate them, PNC has saved or protected more than 725 properties in 75 counties, as well as 4,000 acres of open space. Many of these community landmarks have now been put to a variety of new uses. In one instance, PNC worked as a non-profit developer to save two historic textile mill villages, keeping more than 100 structures from demolition. Among other successes, PNC owns and operates the Bellamy Mansion Museum of History and Design Arts. It is also an advocate for the Federal Rehabilitation Tax Credit, which increases investment in the state's historic neighborhoods. Indeed, the organization's ability to solve preservation problems creatively has helped it survive and thrive for the past 75 years, and will allow it to move forward as one of the nation's strongest preservation organizations.


Gold contract up $3.30, trading at $18.81 an ounce. We have Silver down 10 cents, $23.76 an ounce, late-sweet crude up 56 cents, $75.19 a barrel notes and bonds. A 10-year note, down 26, trading 114 flat, the 30-year offer full-point plus 22 ticks at $128.26. Ten-year right now folks, $3.61 and $King dollar. $King dollar is trying to claw its way out of it. It broke the lows yesterday, it's not over them yet, it's trying to claw its way out of here. We're up $2.40, $103.40, Euro is at $107, he ends at $132, British pound is at $1.21 to $1.00 US dollar. You know when we take a look at the S&Ps, you know sideways move up here, it's trying to claw its way back, bottom line, we'll see how this baby shakes out, you know, because you can make the case now, you know, bottom line is that you went lower, you have lighter volume, so you can make the case today that it's going to try to attack the highs of yesterday once again, you know, because you can see you've only done 40 million shares, you're going into the big day on Friday, that big day had $104 million, now, yeah, and you're over the high, you're over that high. The high of Friday was $389.25, you're $389.30, so bottom line that looks to me like it's going to go attack that area again, this is going to get interesting because we have the CPI coming up on Thursday, but guess what, that's Thursday, not tomorrow. So cues, same setup in the cues, the cues, bottom line, rejected lower price down here at this $268.97, you're going to have light volume, so that's going to be a rejection of lower price and light volume, that's going to say that, guess what, you're going to make a run once again, so we've got to go look at King Dala, so King Dala, this baby here, this broke, and when it broke too, by the way, folks, it broke with conviction, I mean, you know, that buy is a wide-ranging buy, $103.99, well, there it is, it's $1,000 ticks, yeah, that's $995 ticks, so the bottom line is that the King Dala, we're $103.252 and you know, basically in the $500 gets you back inside the range, but we're not back in the $500s. Gold, we're going to take a look at the gold market out here, we have a gold, gold dollars, one of the sideways move out here today, you've only done 144,000 contracts, so we still have, you know, big-time, yeah, divergence out here, that's the bottom line, stay right there folks, come right back.


The NCC is a performance-based code. It requires all houses to make efficient use of energy, particularly the energy required for cooling and or heating. An important aspect of this requirement is sealing the building envelope to minimise air leakage. There are two pathways for demonstrating that the building envelope is sealed adequately and meets the NCC performance requirement. One is to follow the prescriptive deemed to satisfy provisions in the NCC. But if that's considered too rigid or not appropriate for a particular building design, a performance solution can be used to demonstrate compliance. The verification method for building envelope sealing is an assessment method that may be used as one such performance solution. It offers flexibility to assist in creating an innovative built environment and allows designers to decide the most appropriate methods of construction for their project. This method demonstrates compliance through practical testing. The required performance level matches a typical house built in accordance with the prescriptive deemed to satisfy provisions. There are five steps to use this verification method. Step one, planning. This method requires verification through testing. This is done immediately after construction of the building envelope is completed. Plan your program of work as well as those of tradesmen or contractors so they are adequate to do the testing and complete any remediation that may be required. Step two, complete construction of the building envelope. When using this verification method, the DTS provisions are not mandatory but can still be used as guidelines. Step three, testing. Firstly, prepare the house for testing. Close all windows, doors, trapdoors and ventilation and other openings. Blower door testing experts will then mount a blower door assembly at a door in the building envelope and connect pressure measuring devices to the inside and outside of the house. Step four, assess compliance. Compliance is checked using air permeability at a 50-pascal pressure difference. Air permeability is measured in cubic metres per hour per metre squared. To achieve compliance, the measured air permeability must be no more than 10 when applied to homes, this is broadly equivalent to 10 air changes per hour. If compliance is not achieved, remediation is required. Check all seals and possibly adjust as needed, then retest. Step five, document results. The test results should be clearly documented in a test report confirming the procedure was in compliance with the relevant standard. This verification method is clearly outlined with worked examples in the Handbook Energy Efficiency NCC Volume 2. The Handbook and other resources are available from the ABCB website.

Another half hour visit with the folks in the White Frame house on Maple Street. Sit back and enjoy life with the Anderson. Cately, Bud, Betty, Margaret and Jim as the head of this typical American household again sets out to prove that Father Knows Best. Among life's minor irritations which plague the average householder the crushed trash can lid ranks fairly high. This was demonstrated quite forcefully the other evening when Jim Anderson on his way home from work picked up a well flattened cover on the curbing and carried it into the house like this. Look at this Margaret it's happened again flat as a pancake. Oh dear is that our trash can lid? Well I'll admit it's hard to recognize. It was practically a new one too. Sure this is about the fourth one we bought this year. You can't just buy a new cover either you have to buy a whole new can. It's a conspiracy. Do you think it would do any good to call them? I doubt it. I found ours almost down to that house where the new family's moving it. The branders? Mom! I wonder who I'd call. Have you any idea? Wait I think there's a phone number on that card they send out getting a collection date. I'll go get it. Mom! Oh say mom could I go? Just a minute but I'll be right back. Hello bud. Huh? Oh hi dad. You home? No I'm on the rock bound shore of Maine checking my lobster pots. I found the number dear. Here it is. Oh good. Say mom could I go? Just a minute bud. Here bud hold this lid while I phone but don't lose it we may need it for evidence. Okay. Say mom could I go? You know if people would take the trouble to make more of these calls I bet our city would be run more efficiently. After all we're paying taxes for these things and hello say I want to talk to someone in the trash collection department because we... What? Well I know what days they collect. That isn't the reason I'm... No I'm perfectly happy with the collection days. All I want to do is... Yes I understand how that has worked out and I'm not asking you to change the days. My trouble is that I have a bent lid. Oh I wish I could hear their answer to that one. No I mean on our trash can. Your driver ran over it. Yes that's exactly what happened. No we didn't see him do it but obviously he... Oh no we couldn't have done it ourselves because we treat our trash can with great care. Well that'll be fine thank you goodbye. Well it's all settled. Are they going to replace it? A man will come by and make the necessary adjustments. Whatever that means. Well it's high time they did something about it. Mom could I... Yes but what is it you want? Well how do you like that? I forgot now what it was I was going to ask you could I? Well I'm sure it was important. Has anyone looked for the newspaper this evening? I brought it in. It's right there on the coffee table. Oh good. You want part of it honey? No no thanks I guess I'd better get out in the kitchen and start thinking about dinner. Any suggestions? Yes that'll be fine. And how would you like that fix broiled or baked? Yeah that sounds good. I don't know what I do without your suggestions dear. Well it's nothing glad to make them. But you can put that lid down now you don't have to hold it all evening. Huh? Oh I forgot I had it. I was just trying to remember what it was I was going to ask mom. Well it'll come to you. Have you got any idea what it was? How would I know? Well it doesn't seem like both of us could be this dumb. It doesn't. It might have been something important. It seems like it was something that had to do with something. Well that gives you good clue to work on. You work on that while I read the paper. Okay. Hey did you know it's raining outside? I was starting to sprinkle when I came home. Are your clothes wet kitten? No Mr. Davis brought me home. But boy Joe Philips is sure getting wet out there. Joe Philips? Gosh now I remember what I was going to ask mom. Well you'd better go tell him to come in before he catches double pneumonia. He's gone now. Oh bad. So I was going to ask if I could have him come in for a while so we could practice mental telepathy. Mental telepathy? Yeah. Well you know what that is don't you? Yes I know what it is but I doubt if you boys have the proper equipment for it. Huh? Hey what's that in a chair? A shield? No that's our trash can cover and you'd better get that coat off it looks kind of damp. Dad. But I'm trying to read the paper. Well just look at me for a second dad and see if you can tell what I'm thinking. No I can't. Can you? Well you've got to concentrate dad. Look but I'd like to read the paper if you don't mind it. Well let's just try it once. Close your eyes and just be blank and see if you can tell what I'm thinking. Okay but hurry it up. Are you a blank? I think so. Okay concentrate now. I'm going to think of a number. A number? Yeah like 79 or something. Okay. Here goes. Can you get it? Uh 13. Nope it was 79. Oh fine. Look but I... Mother can we eat early tonight because I... Hello princess still raining outside? Just drizzling. Say father if you have any work to do tonight or anything could you do it in the den or upstairs? Why? Well I'm going to have company. Well it's not exactly company this is for school. What is? Mr. Glover you see he's my history teacher and he... Well I'm practically utterly flunking the course and so he's going to come over and try to help me.  Who asked you anything? No hold on a minute Betty when did you start getting so dumb in history? Last semester that was your best subject. Well that's just the curve of learning I guess. Yes but who threw you the curve? Tell me Betty what does this Mr. Glover look like? I suppose he's about 69 with a bald head and a long gray beard. White father how can you talk that way about Mr. Glover? He's cute. Well that clears up that situation. Just whose idea was this anyway? You mean about starting to flunk the course? Uh I mean... Oh what do you mean? I mean about getting this special help. I sort of suggested it I guess. You see Janie Liggett started to flunk the course first. So she beat you to it huh? And her father got worried about it so he talked it over with Mr. Glover. So then Mr. Glover gave her some extra help and he's darling. Is she doing better in the course now? No but now she doesn't mind flunking so much. Oh I give up. Oh for goodness sakes what's that old beat up trash can lid doing in the living room? Oh get that out of here. Oh wait a minute don't take that I need that. Well I'm not going to have it in here when Mr. Glover arrives. He'll think we're living in a junkyard. Leave it right there. But father... I'll bet that's my man now I'll get the door. God be a deer and get some logs. And tell mother we want to eat early tonight. I've got to go up and dress. Please bud pretty please. Well how do you do sir? You're the man with the bent lid. There might be some other way of putting it though. My name's Ottony I'm with the city sanitation department. Well fine come in Mr. Ottony. Cold. That's a nice rain though good for the soil. Soil can have it I don't like it. Yes could I take your raincoat? No I won't be but a minute. Now what's your complaint? Well it actually doesn't sound like a very important thing. But it's more the principle of the thing you know. I just want to get the facts. Well it is a kind of a nuisance having a lid that won't fit on the trash can. Because it's all bent. And I get tired of having to buy a new can every other week too. Every other week? Well it's not quite that bad. You must be pretty hard on them. Oh it's not us. That's what everybody says. A lot of people are careless. Bang them up themselves. We get blamed. Well I can assure you that- You get them all the time. Well the way this happened- We even got one today where they accuse us of stealing their lid. Yeah well what happened to ours- What would we do with a lot of old lids? I don't know. We get some weird ones. Yeah got a few forms here you'll have to fill out. Forms to fill out? Why do I have to do that? All I want is to get a new lid. Regulations. All this red tape. Let's see here now. Bent lid. How did it happen? Your driver ran over it. You see him do it? Well not exactly. It's the way it goes. We get them all the time. It's the way they throw them around and then leave the lids out in the street. Uh huh. I pay taxes you know and I'd like to see something done about this. Uh huh. Well let's take a look at the corpus delective. Okay. You wait there I'll go get it. Get the whole can too not just the cover. Okay okay I'll get the whole works. Now where did that thing go? Margaret. I'm in the kitchen dear. You want me in there? No I'm coming out. Okay now Kathy let's try it once more. Your mind blank. Seven. Wait till I think of a number stupid. Children please be quiet. Say Margaret where is that lid? The trash can lid. I was in the living room not five minutes ago. Oh I think I saw Betty with it. Oh I might have known probably threw it out. Have we got a flashlight that works? I doubt it. I hate to go out and hunt around in the dark in the rain but I've got to prove to this character I'm right. He's being pretty nasty about this and a lot of snide remarks about how it's our own fault. Well wait Jim you'd better put a coat on before you go out. I haven't time I'll be all right. Okay Kathy once more and this time don't guess seven. Try to read what's in my mind. My number is seven. Oh pipe down.  Did you find it? No but I just discovered that wasn't our lid at all. What?  Oh dear. Well you better go in and tell a man. Tell him I can't now I've made too big an issue of this. Well what are you going to do? I don't know but I'm sure of one thing I could never stand Mr. Otney's look of scornful triumph. Act two of Father Knows Best after this word. Monday means music on NBC and here are some of the wonderful programs you'll hear next Monday evening when you set your dial to the NBC radio network. Gordon McRae and his lovely guest Nadine Conner will bring you Maytime as the railroad hours special musical offering. Then Soprano Roberta Peters of the Metropolitan Opera Company will grace the voice of Firestone guest spotlight and Leon Fleischer will be the guest soloist on the telephone hour. From beginning to end it's a wonderful evening of relaxing restful music designed to make your Mondays most enjoyable when you set your radio dial to NBC and the familiar Three Chimes. Remember Monday means music on NBC and you always hear the finest programs on the NBC radio network. And now back to act two of Father Knows Best. Well, what seemed like a minor civic right, the protection of one's trash can cover, has now turned into a fairly embarrassing moment for Father. He's discovered the Bentley that he's raised so much fuss about doesn't even belong to him. Right now he's desperately trying to think up a face-saving story to tell the man who came to settle a complaint. Like this. Well, Jim, you can't keep the man waiting in the hall all night long. I know, I know, I'm thinking. Well, I think the simplest thing to do is just tell him you made a mistake. Margaret, Mr. Otney is not the kind of a man you would admit a mistake to. Maybe so. But as long as you did make a mistake...  He firmly believes that all are troublemakers, that they are all perveracators and schemers. He hates rain and having to go out in it. And I think he's taken a special dislike to me. Is this the type of man at whose mercy you throw yourself? My heavens, you've certainly built up a case.  It'd scare you to death. Jim, you can't keep him waiting. The longer you wait, the worse it is. I know, I know. Let's see. I wonder if I could take our good lid and take a hammer and... No, that'd be cheating. Dear, the only thing to do is tell what happened. Honesty is the best policy, Daddy. Huh? That's what you keep telling us. Well, that's right, too. Absolutely right. But this isn't a matter of honesty. It's a matter of a man's dignity. And, uh, well, darling, it's downright embarrassing. All those snide remarks he kept making. Well, what do you plan to do while you're making up your mind? Invite him to dinner? No, I... Kathy, stop looking at me that way. I'll go in there right now and tell him the truth. Your right is the only thing to do. Stop, fellow. Okay now, Kathy, do it right this time. Close your eyes and... Seven! No, not yet. What's the matter with you? Sorry to have kept you waiting, Mr. Otney. Still got another call to make up tonight. Yeah, well, uh, kind of a funny thing happened. Uh-huh. Yes, well, you see... The whole thing was just a mistake. I went out in the back and you can imagine my surprise when there was our cover just as good as new. Yes, sir. We get them all the time. I beg your pardon? Look, if you've got a bent lid, get it out and let's get this thing straightened out. We want you to be happy. But I tell you, it's not bent. It's okay. See, the lid I found that was bent... Well, are you perfectly happy, then? No complaints? No complaints. Okay. I've got some other forms. You'll have to sign them. What? Release forms. Here we are. Oh, come now, Mr. Otney. The complaint you phoned in is on the book, so we've got to dispense with it one way or another. You, uh, sign right there. Oh, all right. Sign all four carbons. Four? Regulations. I can see where all our tax money goes now. For carbon paper. Here, sign this, too. Well, what's this? It's a release, releasing the other release. Well, that's figures. Regulation. Oh, naturally. Well, okay. Here you are. Well, good night. Good night.  Father! I'm glad I'm not that other party he has to call on yet tonight. Who is at the door, Father? Oh, just an old pal of mine. What did he want? He just wanted the facts, ma'am. My goodness, you're certainly dressed up. I thought you were going to stay home and study history tonight, not make it. Well... Even though a girl is going to study, she has to look halfway presentable, doesn't she? Jim? Well, who do you plan on being presented to, the Queen of England? Is he gone, dear? Yeah. What happened? Well, honesty is indeed the best policy, even though you have to sign a release on it. But it's all over now, and I'd rather not hear any more about it. Well, I knew that the best thing to do with... Betty, where are you going tonight? No place, just going to study history. Mr. Glover's coming over to help me. Oh? Didn't Bud tell you I wanted us to have dinner early tonight? No, he didn't mention it. Oh, fine. I'll bet he didn't bring in the logs either. They're studying about Lincoln's early life, and Mr. Glover is... going to show her how to build a log cabin. Oh, Father, don't be so cornball. Well... I don't want them dragging a lot of logs into the living room. It's just for the fireplace, Mother. Oh. Where is Bud? Well, right now he's taking the trash can around to the front. With all this talk about it, I suddenly realize that tomorrow is a collection day. I bet our lid will get fairly courteous treatment this time. Mother, would you sort of hurry dinner along? I'll try, but you'd better come out and help me. I'll get it. Maybe it's Mr. Glover. Tell him he'd better wear his tuxedo so he won't feel out of place. Gee, I'm glad you call. I want to ask you something. What? Yes, he's coming over tonight. Oh, it worked fine. I didn't know a thing in class today. Not a thing! I wonder if this guy realizes the traps being set for him. Well, say, kiddo, here's what I wanted to ask you. Could you help me think up some real dumb history questions to ask him? Oh, brothers, if she needed help on that. What were some you used? They don't pay teachers one eighth enough. Let me write that down. What caused the dark ages? The smog? I think maybe he's here already. I'll talk to you later, Janie. Bye. Gosh, he's sure early. Far. I'm doing it. Sorry to disturb you again, Anderson. Huh? Oh, it's you, Mr. Otney. I just called in the branders a few doors down. They're the people that accused us of sealing their lid. Oh? They've got some new evidence now. One of the kids saw a man pick it up and carried into... your house. Our house? Oh, well, I can explain that. What are you trying to do, cause this trouble? Oh, no, really. That was the mistake I was trying to tell you about. I evidently picked theirs up, the bent one, by mistake. Thinking it was... By mistake, huh? Sure.  Well, where is it? They want it back. Well, it's, uh... Well, it's no good. It's all bent. Your driver ran over it. Did you see him do it? No, I did. And how do you know that he... Look, I'll call up the branders and settle this thing myself. Or maybe they don't have a phone yet. Yes, they do. I've got it on their complaint card. Oh, good. Let me have that. You'll have to sign a release. I just want to borrow it. Wait there. I'll be right back. Okay. Who's he, father? That's my old pal. Aren't you gonna ask him in? Let him stay out there. Might cool him off a bit. What does he want?  What? Well, my name is Jim Anderson. I just live a few doors down from you, and there seems to be a misunderstanding about a trash can lid. Is that the one I threw away? Well, it's all kind of silly. I picked it up by mistake, thinking it was ours, and I called the department, thinking they'd run over it and bend it out of shape. What'd you say? Oh, well, wait. I can give you a tip. Don't try to get a new one from them. Believe me, you'll be sorry you ever brought it up. I'll buy you a new one myself. No, I insist. We'll call it a sort of welcome to our neighborhood gift. Yeah. Jim Anderson, insurance. Well, sure, I'll be in my office all day tomorrow. Well, fine. I'm sure we can fix you up. I'll see you tomorrow. Goodbye. Well, how do you like that? Father, I think that man out there is getting impatient. Good. Want me to go out and hunt for that other lid? No. Well, Mr. Otney, it's all settled. You can go home now. Okay. You have to sign another release first. Now, wait a minute. When these complaints get on the books, we have its regulations. Sure, sure. Sign all four copies again? Yes, sir. Okay. Well, you sure get them at our office. All right, there you are. Does that take care of it now? Well, good night. Good night. Well, thank goodness that's over. I hope I never see another lid as long as I live. Dinner's on. Okay. It's not fancy tonight, but it's here. Hurry up, Kathy and Bud. No, no, no, no. You're supposed to try to hear what I'm thinking. Well, you don't think loud enough. Creepers, there's Mr. Glover. I told him not to come until seven. Father, you go to the door. I'm going, princess. I'm going. Come on, children. Sit down. Bud, did you wash your hands? Yes. Sorry to disturb you again, Anderson. Mr. Otney, what have I done now? Nothing. I don't know how it happened, but when I started my car, I bumped into your trash can and ran over the cover. You what? Now, if you'll just sign these papers, I'll see that you get an ear. Oh, no, you don't, huh? You keep your forms and I'll buy all my own trash cans from here on out. The Andersons will be back in just a moment. And now, here's a word about some of the fine shows you'll hear tomorrow night on the NBC Radio Network. Comedy rules the roost when Bob Hope presents his fast-paced, typical topical humor, and tomorrow evening you'll hear Miss Jean Tierney as guest of the Bob Hope Show. So, be sure to listen tomorrow. And then, stay tuned as Phil Harris and Alice Faye brighten the airwaves with 30 minutes of hilarious comedy and some of the nation's most popular music. Along with Phil and Alice, you'll hear Elliott Lewis and Julius Abruzio to keep the comedy on a mirthquaking level. Remember tomorrow and every Friday evening over many of these same stations, it's the Bob Hope Show and the Phil Harris Alice Faye Show. Hear them both on the NBC Radio Network. Well, a strange case of the crushed cover has been completely closed now. As far as Jim Andersons is concerned, it'll never be opened again. At the moment, Betty is studying history in the living room with Mr. Glover, while the rest of the family is confined to the den. All right now, Dad. This time, you write something down on a piece of paper and put it in a sealed envelope and see if I can tell what it is. But I'd rather not do any more mind-reading right now. The only thing I seem to have in my mind is Mr. Otney, and I don't think I want to think about him anymore. Well, just put something down. Kathy, stop peeking at Betty and Mr. Glover. I was just going to the kitchen to get a drink of water. That's the ninth drink of water you've gone after in the last ten minutes. You'll get waterlogged. Come on, Dad, write something down. You know, I still can't get over Mr. Otney accusing me of stealing the Bradner's lid. I've never stolen anything in my life. Come on, Dad. I don't feel like it, bud. Here, my pen. You write something down yourself. That way it'll be easier for you to guess what it is. Yeah, I believe you're right. Hey, would you get this pen? It says Oliver Otney on it. Oliver Otney? Oh, my gosh, I forgot to give it back. He'll be certain I stole it.  Join us again next week when we'll be back with Father Knows Best, starring Robert Young as Jim Anderson. Father Knows Best is an NBC radio network production in cooperation with Cavalier Enterprises. In our cast, Virginia Vanderpile as Margaret, Rhoda Williams, Ted Donaldson, Helen Strom and yours truly. Father Knows Best, based on characters created by Ed James, is written by Paul West and Roswell Rogers, directed by Arthur Jacobson and transcribed in Hollywood. This is Bill Foreman speaking. Tonight play Truth or Consequences on the NBC Radio Network.


My role is really to try and bring some sort of coordination mechanism to this humanitarian crisis. Almost two million internally displaced people. Fields and fields of people with very little shelter, very little food, very little services of any kind. What do we do about this? Why do we even call them internally displaced people? You have a human right to within your own country move to wherever you want to move. The city of Madougary, which is more than doubled in size, has taken in more people than the entirety of Europe. But what we're going to find is that the young people who have moved from a village type structure into a city, many of them are never going to go back. So Madougary as a city literally has changed. It's a multi-layered and terribly complex situation, but in reality it's simple. It is protecting the rights and the dignities of our citizens. Now in the world we see a lot of protracted displacements all around and this is also why the durable solutions is something that we need to aspire for. And the states do have the primary responsibility to do this, particularly when we address the triggers of internal displacement.


Last evening, I saw a meaningful debate on NDTV with regard to the preliminary counter-affidavit filed by the Union of India in the Supreme Court in a petition filed by a petitioner challenging the constitutionality or validity of the Citizenship Amendment Act 2019, called CAA in short. The debate primarily rotated around whether the CAA is violative of the international law regime as embodied in the international conventions, which contention is being agitated by the petitioners in their petition. Let me here enlighten the viewers or those interested in the subject about the whole moot proposition. According to my analysis of the legal position in this respect, international law has absolutely no relevance to CAA. Why? I will tell you. There is a well-known Latin international law and public policy magazine called Parinparam Non-Habit Imperium, which means equals have no sovereignty over each other. This principle of international law forms the basis of state immunity. Because of this principle, one sovereign state cannot exercise jurisdiction over another sovereign state, meaning thereby, CAA, which deals with a highly sensitive domestic matter that is grant of citizenship, shall have to be a sovereign and domestic and national prerogative of India with no interference from external laws or agencies. International law cannot dictate the content and effect of this law. Some distinguished scholars have even discussed that the so-called international law lacking a sovereign power and so unenforceable was not really law at all, but positive morality, consisting of opinions, perhaps sentiments, more ethical than legal in nature. For instance, article 2, sub-article 1 of the UN Charter confirms this reality of the sovereignty of nations. No state is in subjection to any other state. International law is the set of rules, norms and standards generally accepted in relations between nations and not within the nation. The definition of international law centres on the word inter, which means between as opposed to intra, which means within. So literally international law, I feel is defined as law between nations, which are born out of agreements personified in treaty, conventions or customs. That is accepted by all countries nations. International law basically provides a means for states to practice more stable, consistent and organized international relations. International law differs from state-based legal systems. Former applies to countries rather than to individuals. And now parades largely through consent, since there is no universally accepted authority to enforce it upon sovereign states. Admittedly, CAA is a matter within as it addresses the issue of migration of unsettled people since India's partition and independence. Even otherwise the international law is regulated through domestic constitutional law, given that it is only the domestic law that is the institutional process which can decide on the recognition of international law. It's very logical. Finally and most importantly, the supremacy and sovereignty of a nation as to its foreign policy, economic policy or for that matter legislation as a whole is sanctified by article 46 of the Vienna Convention on the law of treaties. Which allows a country to invalidate an act that ratified a binding treaty through domestic legal measures. If the procedure followed for ratification, overrode a national rule of fundamental importance to the existence of the state. This article completely demolishes whatever is left in the argument against the CAA from the international law perspective. Hope you found this talk informative.

Hey everybody, welcome to the Waldoch Way. Today's video is going to be a summer haul. Today's summer haul is from Usborne and this brings us to our summer of hauls in. So this will be the last back to school haul that I have to share with you guys. Again, as per all of these haul videos, make sure you stay tuned to the end because there is going to be a giveaway announcement and this one is exclusive to you guys right here on YouTube. All right, I am just going to jump in because like all of the rest of them I have a ton to show you. The first thing that I grabbed was the improve your survival skills, to be honest. I couldn't believe we didn't already own it. I'm not sure how we didn't already own it but I knew that I wanted this to finish out our survival unit study. So it actually looks really, really awesome. There is a ton of stuff packed into this little book and honestly, you guys, it was $5.99.  So if you were doing the survival unit study, pick this up because it is totally, totally worth it. Okay, I also grabbed Emily because she was looking over my shoulder and really wanted them the School of Monsters series. I believe there are, yes, five books. At least that's what there were when we ordered. And they are by Sally Ripkin, which is the same author of the Billy B and Hey Jack book series, which is kind of what drew her in. Gonna be honest, these are way simpler than what Emily could read. But I am a huge fan of if your kid is reading, who cares? So this is what the level looks like. So if you have a kid who is kind of, you know, looking for something a little bit beyond those super, you know, easy books but isn't really ready for a chapter book yet, I feel like this is perfect. It's really colorful. It has big, bold words. I mean, I'm pretty impressed. And there's even a how to use this book for adults reading with children section in the back. And it talks about how there are some words in bold. There is also a section from the illustrator on how to draw in the back of each one for some of the different characters. So each one is a different character. So I just, I was very, very impressed. I really do wish that we had found this series or that the series was around when Emily was a little bit younger because it's just so awesome. I mean, how often do you get to read a book, have, you know, discussions about the book and then learn how to draw the characters. And like I said, each book has that section. So you have a younger kiddo. You probably really want this series. Okay, some of these were just me completing our selection on things, which if you guys are new here and you haven't been around very long, I have a problem. The first step is admitting it. So I have a problem. I have to complete series of things. It's an addiction. I'm just kidding. It kind of is. But I really like having like the full collection. So even though, for instance, like the peak inside the seashore right here and lays a little bit older than this even really needs to be, but we have all of the rest of them. And at this point, I can't not have this one. And I just really love these books. And I still think even at her age, they're still fun to read. So that is one of the ones that we picked up, peak inside the seashore. Along those same lines of needing to have the full collection, I also have the first question and answer of what is a virus, which obviously, you know, couldn't have come at a better time. We get to, you know, learn more about viruses. Also the first questions and answer, how can I be kind? I don't really care how old you are. I think this is a fantastic book. Learning to be more kind is amazing. And I love that it has, you know, those traditional flap that as warrants are known for. And then the next three I have are from the Look Inside series, which Emily still very, very much enjoys. I feel like they're still really on target for her age-wise. So we have Look Inside Math. Which, I mean, anything that makes math more fun is awesome. And these have those wonderful as born flaps as well. Look Inside the Woods. And probably my favorite new Look Inside is Look Inside the World of Bees. I'm so excited to use this one in the spring because I'm sure we're gonna do some sort of insect, something we always do. And this will just be such a fantastic addition to it. Okay, we also grabbed the Getting Started with Math. Now you guys saw me show the Getting Started with Science book probably about a year ago. And I was blown away. I really feel like the Getting Started with Science and the Getting Started with Math honestly could be almost like an elementary curriculum. In fact, I just shared on Instagram the other day about, can I let me move so you guys can see them.  And they also carry them in the high school level. I think these Getting Started books from Us Born would be phenomenal for the same things for elementary school. The reference that they make or the reference that they make or would make is excellent. They have examples for all of the different things that they're showing you. And it's pretty thorough in my opinion. I really, I mean, I really, really do think that this could be a good place for a homeschool mom to start if you really didn't want maybe a math curriculum. And they're only $12.99. So really affordable for that. I got this mainly because I thought Emily would enjoy reading it by herself just to learn more because sometimes she's really interested in different math topics. I also liked that there were so many different visual aids to learning different topics. And I thought it would not hurt because it never hurts to have enough extra things for math, especially with her, to have it on hand as another way to explain something. So if me and Kevin aren't doing a very good job or if she's not understanding that this would be kind of a great, younger, childish way to explain different math topics. So there is that. And then obviously this isn't the math one. This didn't come from Usborne, but we have the middle school math of this if we need to explain it in a more grown up, mature way. Okay, moving on. Lift the flap questions and answers about music. Again, this one completed our series, but I was really, really excited to see it. There isn't a lot of music books out there for kids. So I'm always excited when there is a one to add to our collection, especially when it's a fun lift the flap one like this. The Neverboard learning series is great. We have the original Neverboard learning, the outdoors. They just came out with an art one, I think, or a craft one. This is cut, fold, and stick. So it is another kind of crafty one. It says make boredom a thing of the past by cutting, folding, and sticking your way through this book. It's just a time, like I said, of cutting, folding, and sticking type of activities. Perfect for those moments when your kids are bored, you can just hand it to them and they have something to do. I love having things like this on hand for those moments and Emily's really crafty, so I like to encourage that with books like that. So something I think we were all excited for is the new magic painting book. We love magic painting, and this one is even more exciting because it is famous paintings. So it is, I mean, some of the most famous paintings and that you get, like Dancers in Blue by Edward Degas, The Scream, I mean, it's just all these phenomenal famous paintings, Vincent Van Gogh, and your children get to paint them with nothing more than water. So they put water on the page and it's, I mean, it's beautiful. They just paint with it. It's simple, it's fun, and then what I love even more is that on this back, the thing that you use to keep it from going in between pages has the famous paintings and how they look as well as more information about them. So for instance, you know, it says, the Scream, this nightmarish painting shows a figure clutching his head in agony. His mouth is open as if to scream, but according to Munch, the picture was inspired by a scream he felt mysteriously coming from the world around him. Swirly lines suggest this terrifying noise. So if you are wanting to get into picture study with your kids, this is a fantastic way to do it because you could just read off of this to them and then have them paint with water. It would be a great addition to your morning basket. It would be a great, like I said, kind of gateway into a picture study. Just, it would be so awesome. Like I was so, so excited to see that as a homeschool mom. Okay, we also have the escape room. So can you escape the museum? I really hope they do more books like this because this looks like so much fun. We haven't done it yet, but it is, you know, you literally trying to escape a museum. So your footsteps echo inside the deserted Egyptian gallery and a shiver goes down your spine. Something doesn't feel right and you try to leave, but the doors won't budge, they're locked. You better hurry up and work to escape. And then there are all of these items back here in this little envelope, like these press items that you're going to use to set up your escape room. So such a fun way to have some fun at home as a family and not need anything more than that book. This one, of course I had to have it, you guys, because it is a new release that has to do with the National Parks. Now I haven't had a chance to look through here extensively, but I have seen some chatter on the Waldoch Way community page that some parks have like four pages and some parks only have two and then it's not the most in-depth look at all of them. And that does appear, as I'm flipping through here, to be the case. However, it has a little bit of a history of the National Parks. It kind of has like a little what to pack when you're going to the National Parks. It's park ranger approved. And it does include, I believe, all of them. So let's see here. It's split up by area.  I do like what's in here for each of them. They are right. Some of them have more than others. Some have a little bit less, but I still think it's a great book and it's really as beautiful. So if you were setting the National Parks, I would still highly suggest this because I think it's a great book. And then we have the book of the brain and how it works. This just seems like a really fun book to me because it seemed a little bit more than your traditional like, here's the brain and what's inside it. And it was more kind of the science behind it and how it works and what it does. So I thought that would be really fun. We also grabbed the internet-linked Medieval World Encyclopedia. We just didn't have this one and I love all of these internet-linked encyclopedias from Usborne, so I wanted to add that to our collection. And when we were actually at the FPEA Home School Convention, Kevin almost picked this book up and bought it, which of course I was like, don't do that. We'll just buy it directly from Usborne. But he wanted to have this in our collection, the World Wars. So we have it in our collection now. A few other kind of like activity type things that I got are the Neverboard in a car cards. We have all of these, the Neverboard cards, the Neverboard on a plane. There's multiple different versions of them. They are basically just double-sided, dry erase cards that have activities that you can do in a vehicle on the go on a plane, whatever. And they even come with the dry erase marker. So all of this just fits in that box. And you have, I mean, a ton of cards. Let's see, does it tell us how many? 50 white clean cards. So that means a hundred different puzzles because like I said, they're front and back. And they just fit in this box. So you could just put this box in your car and have all of these different puzzles, activities, mazes, spot the differences, just all kinds of different things for your kids to do while you were on the go. We have every other version of this. So when I saw they released a new word search, we grabbed it. This is the travel word searches. I really like these word searches because they are almost always educational in some form. I mean, outside of the fact that they're just word searches, like these are done by places you would travel to. And they have all of the different words that relate to that destination. So this would be really fun for even like traveling the world. If you were doing a traveling type of curriculum and you just wanted some sort of something for your kids to do like while you're reading aloud or whatever, this is all travel based word searches, like traveling the world type word searches. And they're colorful and they're fun. Like I think anyway, Emily really loves them. She likes the quality of these books too versus like some of the cheaper word searches that you get at the dollar store but just like fall apart in your hands. So there's that. We also grabbed the space puzzle pad. You guys know I keep telling you in all of these halls that we're gonna be doing a very large astronomy unit. So this seemed like it would be really, really fun.  The pages rip off. If you wanted to just do one or two at the time, it would be great for in the car or morning basket to keep their little hands busy. Just something to give them when you're working with another kiddo if you have multiple kids.  It's like $7.99. So in good quality again. So we have that. And then we already own both of the other My Year and we have really enjoyed them. We have My Year of Art and My Year of Writing and this is My Year of Nature. Capture your creativity every single day this year with super fun drawing and writing journal. It's a really great way to get your kids drawing and writing every day. Journaling without it being like, it's kind of guided so it makes it a little bit easier for them to journal.  Describe a stormy night. Think about the sounds, the sights and the colors. Imagine you're standing at the bottom of a waterfall and describe the sounds you hear. So if you have a kid who really likes nature and you want them to get into journaling, this is a great way to do that. If you could live as an insect for a day, which insect would you choose and draw it here? It's just really fun drawing and writing activities, you know, based on nature. All right, you guys, we are getting down to the end. Okay, the dinosaur mazes, this one is big. Emily loves dinosaurs. She saw this and had to have it great quality again. And then we actually got this to take on a beach trip with us and it is under the sea mazes. We are going to the beach for Emily's birthday and this just looked like something fun. In case we get rained out on a day or two, I want to have just a few activities that we could do inside. And this looked like it would fit the bill. So we have that. And then this I'm really excited about. I have the beginner and the intermediate. And now I have the advanced. Sorry, they're stuck in here, you guys. So it is the white clean set. They call them key skill sets from Usborne and they come in this really nice, plastic, it's not really plastic. It's like a poly envelope that has a zipper top. So the advanced has four books in it. They all have four books. Two are always some sort of English type of book and then two are always math. So this set for the advanced is fractions. And then all of the white clean pages inside have to do it with fractions. And there is also always an answer key, notes for the adults to kind of help teach it. And then a grid, like graph paper for the kids to do their work on, like if they needed to do, like scratch paper, telling time is the second book. And then for English, we have grammar and punctuation and spelling. And I just like to have these kind of on hand for, I don't know, busy activities, things when I need a second reinforcement, things that she needs to practice over and over and over because they're dry clean or white clean dry erase. You can just do them and erase them and do them again and again and again. So I like that because it doesn't feel wasteful. Not having to print a ton of stuff out. I like them. They're great for car schooling too. We also grabbed two new puzzles, the Jigsaw Tree of Life here. And all of the Osborne puzzles also come with a book of some kind. Let me see if I can get this one open to show you what book it comes with, which is something that I love about it. Actually, I almost always give these puzzle sets as gifts because they make such nice gifts because you get a really high quality puzzle in a nice book. Okay, so this is the Tree of Life book and it has all of this information in this book. And so this is what you get with the puzzle, with that puzzle. And then we also have the new dinosaur timeline puzzle. And I believe the book that this one comes with is the dinosaur timeline book, the fold out dinosaur timeline. We have that already and we love it. So I'm excited that it also still comes with it because, let me open it, see if I'm right. Yes, what I love is that in the puzzles, you get the same information, but the books that come with them are a little bit, I guess, less expensive to make. So when you buy the dinosaur timeline, normally it has like the hard cover, but when you get it in the puzzle, it's just the interior, which actually is easier to store in my opinion. They just didn't have this set out when we first bought the timeline, but I think that's easier to store than the hardback. But we will love them both equally. Okay, so that is all of that. The only thing I have left to show you guys is my Usborne splurge and it was the illustrated originals and I bought all of them. I really, really wanted these classic books for Emily. I think this is like in the next year or two would be the perfect time to read them and these make it more fun because they're beautiful, they're small, they're easy to hold. They still have those color images that make it exciting for her. So I went ahead and got them all for her. So we have little women around the world in 80 days, White Fang, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, The Jungle Book, Black Beauty, The Wizard of Oz. You guys seriously, look at how pretty that is. Treasure Island. This is the one Kevin's the most excited about. Illustrated Odyssey, Heidi, The Railway Children and then the one that started it all, Anne of Green Gables. So Emily actually picked up the classic starts Anne of Green Gables to read to herself. And she was like, mom, I just don't like this. Like she could tell that it was kind of watered down and she wanted to read something a little more mature. But then when you go to the more mature ones they are not as fun to read. And so that's when we were talking back and forth. She's like, I just wish there was a picture every now and then. Like it doesn't have to be time just every now and then. And that's when I remembered that Usborne had the illustrated ones and so she could get that color picture that she wanted every now and then within still the unabridged version of the book. So she's very, very excited and I think that's the one she's gonna start reading. So that's it. That is our Usborne haul for back to school and now for the giveaway.
