I also am a little far away to help, as well; otherwise, I'd shift a few for you. I have shifted many rocks in and out of cars over the years. My godparent's cabin in the woods is situated very closed to a (formerly) abandoned quarry. Every year, Ron and I would go over there, him in the tractor, me plodding alongside with a trenching spade and we'd fill the tractor trailer with rocks, then shift them into my vehicle. Lots of nice quartz, some lovely dark blue stones, some interesting fossils.

Thankfully I have a truck so don't need to worry about put them in the car...did a quick drive-by the pile (which as soon as I saw it, I remembered it as I drove by it all the time up until 7 years ago!) and it looks like the rocks are predominantly bigger than I was thinking of using but that may be better as I'll need less rocks
over all.

At work we have to wear a mask anytime we leave our desk. So now I hardly move all day which is not good because it gives me a bad knee sitting for hours at my desk. I have tried several different kinds of masks but am hot in some and gagging in others. Maybe I can go to a costume shop and get a Batman cowl...it might be easier to wear than the masks...and as a bonus others would be sure to give me the 2 meters of social distancing! :p

We are required to use supplied masks. The good news, they are actually medical-grade surgical masks since we are in healthcare and stock them for our healthcare team. Though I keep having this weird urge to carry a scalpel and say things like, "Pass the clamp, nurse.":oops::D

Cutting humus ...
 
Attempting to make a loaf of raisin bread - followed the recipe exactly (something I rarely do) and I'm not sure it is going to turn out! Fingers crossed

My son used to eat that all the time for breakfast during a period in his childhood but I never made it, just bought Sunmaid or PC depending on which store I was at.

Raisin bread toasted was our Sunday treat for lunch every week...haven't had it in YEARS
 
Okay...decided to tempt fate (and because what's one or two or six more dirty dishes when the sink is already full) and am making a loaf of cheese bread too

Sometimes mask wearing is a skill one must acquire with practice - kind of like riding a bike :giggle: Short duration, breathe slowly through your nose, try not to concentrate too much on the mask or breath - you'll get the hang of it. But for sure - masks do differ in quality. Hopefully you'll soon find one that's more comfortable for you, as you're right - too much sitting is a bad idea!
