     Analytical Grammar.

    I make a low-carb hot cereal with flax, hemp seeds, and chia (with lots of variations). Unsweetened non-dairy milk of choice. Let me know if you want details. 🙂

     

    Oh, honey, I could've helped you with that...

    Yes, please, I'd love the recipe!!

    Ellie edpo:  Thinking of using R&S grammar for my 6th grader next year, he's had some grammar, should I start him in the 5th grade book?

    Qoestion for my low carb ladies, what do you eat, that's quick for breakfast?  I love oatmeal and pancakes, I don't care for eggs, unless they are sunny side up and I loathe bacon unless it's turkey bacon, not really a sausage eater.

    Good morning!  So glad today is Wednesday because I can't wait for this week to be over.  Nothing much to do today regular lessons, piano (I hope, the last two lessons were cancelled), mid week service and soccer practice.  I'm hoping to get a load of laundry done or we're all going to be pantless, lol. 

    Jean-I didn't get my step count either

    Slache-what happened?

    Susan-I pray things go well with the talk.

    Kitchen po:

    Do y'all prefer non-stick or other surface for your main skillet?  If you don't cook with non-stick, does everything stick?  How do you avoid that?  (browning ground beef might be okay because of the fat, but what about frying eggs, or pancakes?)

    I prefer non stick.

    We are taking the day off from school. I'm just too tired to do much, and completely wiped out from the weekend of driving and listening to lectures. We are going to go to the lake and I'm going to try to settle down and relax. Keyed up this morning because I made the mistake of problem solving when somebody just wanted me to listen. Why am I made that way? Gah!

    Rant over. Tea and go sit in my corner and repent.

    I so understand!  I'm that way too, always trying to fix it, I don't think it's a bad thing but, it sure can be hard.  I'm very slowly learning to ask if they need me to listen or if they want help.  Did I mention that it's slow going.

    Thanks!  I'm not sure what I'm looking for either!  I thought the chipotle ranch was going to be hot.  I actually didn't end up trying it.  But the men said it wasn't hot.  So maybe it was just too ranchy.  I don't know.  Anyway, I'm definitely trying your salsa ratio next time instead.  Thanks!  

    :willy-nilly:!!!!!!!!!

    Please remember ITT regulations.  No dying allowed.  

    Go M25A!  Go!  You can do it!

    We had friends over last night.  She and I didn't even watch the game - just visited which was nice.  They left around 10:30.  It doesn't feel like it should be a Monday.  Ack!  

    It really doesn't feel like Monday!

    Good morning!  Is it just me or is it complete torture for anyone else trying to get to WTM?  Anyway, last week was not great, I was just so totally drained, I'm feeling a bit better after this weekend though.  We have regular lessons today, soccer practice tonight and some housekeeping in there somewhere, hope everyone's day is productive.

    I attached writing to story time.  Everyone does a little work from Writing & Rhetoric every day after the read-aloud.  We're on book 4 now.  My 10th grader won't get through all of them, but it will be something.  (She also takes American Literature at a tutorial, and has to do some writing for that class.)  

    Ok, tell me where to start with my two, just for reference, the youngest is a much better writer than the oldest.  I'm thinking book 2 for both?  Or maybe something from Memoria Press since I have that coupon?  Thoughts

    Good morning!  We did school at the library yesterday and it was fun!  Today we'll be home because I need to run people places and do laundry but, I sure wish we weren't going to be here.  The februaries have taken hold and I just don't want to do anything, I know that there are other contributing factors but, I just want to blame it on February, lol.  

    Edpo:  Ladies, we are not doing any consistent writing, not even my older boy, the 10th grader.  Help us to write something daily, I have IEW, which I love, and a ton of other writing resources, why aren't we writing?

    Good morning!  Last night at soccer practice was brutal!  It was so cold, the kid had a good time though but, I will be finding him and me some warmer clothing.  We have regular lessons today and I'm thinking of going to the library, just for a change scenery.  I just need a different atmosphere.
