hahaha @ArraDreaming rookie mistake lol
I clip the sides to a draw and move a chair to clip the other side so the opening is visible - then it is a slow pour of the beans. I never get all of them in because they love to play tricks (ie the static helps them to 'wander') but it is the best method I have found over many years of emptying them to wash and then refilling. I usually bring them home twice a year because as we know - kids are little dirty, germ machines hahaha
Just had a very out of sorts Toby barking at the fireworks. I had to pick him up and cuddle and that eventually helped. They were so loud this year - felt like they were right on top of us.

Poor kids lol @Zoe7 . My niece came home and said, "the Elf is NOT real! I know because the door it is supposed to come out of was for sale at kmart!"
ROFL!!! HAhahahah. Good old Kmart is a teacher's heaven.
Anyway, thanks for the chat. I'm hopping off. I'm hoping that in an hour or so, I'll take another covid test. If it's clear, I'm outta the house!
Cya! Happy NY!

haha @ArraDreaming I'm used to gross being around kids all the time. Funny story (well I think it is) - one of my kids would come in every morning and blow her nose ...not just a little bit but she gave it a good go. We used to joke that the booger show had started lol I even showed her where the spare tissue boxes were (they were kept them in a cupboard in the toilet area for staff to get when needed) so she would simply replace the box when it was empty. She was the coolest kid and one I am very much going to miss this year.
I really hope you are okay by the weekend. If not great, the fresh air might help🤞. I am sure the kids are looking forward to it.
