Maximizing daylight during working hours is kind of the point for standard time. It's also the whole reason why we change our clocks to never be on daylight savings during the winter. It's justbtoo necessary to too many people and businesses. But yes, reduced daylight hours in the winter is a well known drag on human cadence, mood, and energy. There really isn't much we can do about it though. Except get daylight (5000 kelvin) bulbs for common areas in our houses. That or UV plant growth bulbs, which works even better on mood. Bonus, the higher kelvin bulbs also makes transitioning from outside daylight to interior spaces much easier on the eyes. As well as for helping us to wake up in the morning. Just don't put them in a bedroom or bathroom, unless you want more sleeping problems.

You might be right with all you say, just heat of the pallets is not an issue. I dont recall the exact temperature of when they get soft, but it is no issue at all to handle the soft material with your bare hands. 

Ana lowered the crib rails and saw Alice crying hard, so she picked her up and carried her to the chair, telling Maddison that Camilla was already downstairs having breakfast. After watching Maddison leave, Ana checked Alice's diaper and said, "My little snowflake is in a big mess, but today is a very special day; Mommy is going out with your big sister for a day just for us, while you stay here with Aunt Ana and let her take care of a baby." Ana was about to start changing Alice's diaper. Maddison ran to hug her mom; everything happening today was quite new to her. Maddison hugged Camilla, saying, "Good morning, Mommy, I have something to tell you." Camilla noticed her daughter acting a little strange. "The first thing is that sleeping in the crib isn't so bad or weird—I think we could sleep there other nights—but I also didn't know if I was allowed to get out of the crib by myself or if I should wait for you?" Camilla was happy to hear that. "The other thing is that I wet my diaper while I was sleeping, Mommy."

Again. Except the pellets will be extremely hot. You can't exactly handle them to shape the plastic. And you would need a mould and/or special tools, like I said. I know this because I've also tried sugru, an epoxy or hard rubber that you can mold by hand before it sets. And trying to shape something by hand is extremely difficult. It doesn't work as good as you think it does. Especially for anything bigger than a small, flat, or ball shape. And FYI, Sugru is quite expensive. It would take $100+ for enough material to make even a small tunnel plug. So that's out just because of the cost. By starting off with a concentric ring of tubing, you are starting off with something already close to the final shape. This way it's a matter of modification, not complete fabrication. And plastic tubing is fairly cheap, making it something most people can afford to work with.

Well, I had another diaper related dream. It wasn't really about my diapers, but still not a very good one either. I was at a family reunion and had a major diarrhea accident. My diaper had leaked badly and I went to change, but both bathrooms were occupied. I took over my parents bedroom and changed in there. I immediately put the messy diaper into a trash bag I had readied, and it was almost too much for the bag to hold. I was then getting cleaned up as best as I could. Then my older sister walked in on me. In spite of my warnings not to. She immediately started making fun of me and commenting on the smell. I shot back at her stupidity for coming into the bedroom when Iwarned her not to, and then again for staying. Dream analysis says pooping is literally letting something out. Often emotions of fellings that have been building up, and can only be held in for so long, before it comes bursting out. Bathrooms are metaphorical places to cleans ones self. But being locked out means I'm feeling restricted in life. Having my sisyer barge in on me means she is the one I need to to unload towards. And being made fun lf means I feel betrayed and hurt. While countering back means I'm able to stand up for myself against her. Note, my older sister is estranged. She refuses to take medication for bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. The last few times we talked, she kept trying to add drama and dissent into my life. Ultimately I had to cut her off for being toxic. So yeah, I have a LOT to unload towards her. And won't stand for taking more of her "shit". The only thing is, I had to completely cut her off unless I let her continue to pour more "crap" onto me. So taking to her again is NOT going to happen anytime soon.
