Emily asked how she is. Good. What she’s doing. She went to school to get a packet and is working on homework. Emily asked if she had a lot. She’s practicing exponents.
Emily said, “I brought this thing to show you,” and showed the kitten. Ambria giggled.
Emily asked what she’s drinking. It’s the tea Emily sent. Emily asked how it is. Good. Emily asked what she mixed it with. Water. Emily asked how it is with water. Still pretty good. Emily said she likes it. Emily asked if it’s close to Starbucks. Pretty close. Emily said she thought if she can’t get out to Starbucks, she can still have it.
Emily told her Halsey has a new makeup line called About Face that launched Monday. Emily asked if she can wear makeup. Ambria said she doesn’t but it sounds cool.
Ambria asked if Benny showed her what he drew or sent her a copy. Ambria turned the camera around and showed the family picture Benny drew. Emily laughed and tried to figure out how many of the people she knew. Emily got the phone switched over to split screen and couldn’t get it fixed. She asked Ambria how to fix it. Ambria didn’t know. Ambria flipped it over and showed the birth and death dates. Ambria said she didn’t know Reda was born in ‘49. Ambria thought she was younger. Emily said that’s true. Emily said the photo her drawing is based on looks like she was 12 at the time. Emily coached her to pan the camera so she could see a particular part of the drawing better and said the photo it was based on was hanging in her grandmother’s house. Ambria switched the camera back to her. Emily asked if Ambria could still see her.
Emily told her the cats are getting along. Emily said the dog comes to get her when the kitten gets in her bed and Emily has to go move it.
Ambria tried to think of what to say. She told her she finished one of the woodworking projects. Emily asked which one. Ambria told her the decorative one. Emily asked if she has to turn it in. They take pictures of each of the steps.
Emily interjected that her hair looks fluffy. Ambria said she braided it. Emily asked if she can braid her own hair and said she can’t. She also said she had never tried.
Ambria told her she has one last thing to do on the other project. Emily asked what. Ambria told her she needs to drill holes so the plant can breathe. Emily asked if she has a drill. Yes. Emily said her plant turned brown and is half dead. Ambria said that’s no good. Emily agreed and said “here I was trying to give you advice…”
Emily said the picture was neat and she should frame it. Then she decided it might be hard to frame.
Ambria asked about Reda. Her oxygen is staying between 93 and 94. Emily said it’s “low but acceptable.” She’s still asymptomatic. She’s been in there for 8 days, so she probably has a week to go or maybe 5 days.
Ambria said she wants to go. Emily said she’s glad she’s enjoying the chai latte and next time, remember the milk. Emily asked if she’s tried it that way. No, she just got it today. They ended the call at January 6, 2021 3:24 PM.
