Listening to: The ticking of the clock and my two oldest blessings giggling together in the other room
It's almost my bedtime. What's funny about that? Well, I just woke up from a nap a couple of hours ago. We tend to spend the afternoon in town after the homeschool meeting each month, and come home totally exhausted. Today we laid down just after 4:00, and the little ones are still sleeping. I'm sure it was nice for Loren to come home from work and be able to crawl into bed, rather than being mobbed by enthusiastic children who try to keep him up for hours!
Hmm... come to think of it, this might be a great time for me to make a Walmart run! (groan) Loren did the grocery shopping for me yesterday (have I mentioned that he's a wonderful husband?), but I have a couple of meds to pick up for myself. Can you say "bronchitis"?
It turns out my big kids were cracking each other up, talking about words which are often mispronounced ("often" being one of them). I told them about Category 7, the weather comedy designed to promote the religion of environmentalism. I wonder how anyone could take it as anything but a joke when the leading scientist character continues referring to the "mesosphere" as the "messophere".
On an unrelated note, Toby said he woke up from his nap to find Lynae writing by the light of his fish tank. I told her, "Girl, you are going to go blind and deaf (added for dramatic effect only) and there will be nothing I can do about it." Toby added, "Yeah, you'll have to go sniff out truffles." ROFL!! He got it from Guy Noir, A Prairie Home Companion
Welp, I think the kids and I are going to giggle and cough our way through Walmart. I leave you with something I found encouraging:You Passed 8th Grade Math 
Congratulations, you got 10/10 correct!

I have to say that I am impressed - 3 entries in one week for you. That may be more than you had last month altogether. Ha! And I loved your details of Jon being on the payroll. You are so good at giving things structure. You'll have to let us know how it goes.
ReplyDeleteEncouraging? You call getting 6/10 encouraging? I just flunked 8th grade math, most of which was not covered in my 8th grade math class so I wung it! Too bad they don't show which ones were wrong.
