  1. I'm missing being able to celebrate my mom's birthday today. She would have been 76.

      It is so hard to lose your mother. Hugs to you.

  2. Just because a packet of seasoning says taco seasoning, don't assume it's regular in any way. It might be the flavor of Dante's Inferno!

      Love the phrase "the flavor of Dante's Inferno"! I might be borrowing that. Good luck with your mouth's recovery.

      Feel free to use it any time! It did recover and there wasn't much gastric distress like I feared.

  3. Last night our son asked if you had to watch or read something about the candidates or issues before you were allowed to vote. We had to tell him that truth that any registered adult can walk in knowing absolutely nothing about any of it and vote.

  4. Ds just whooped and hollered over making a 104 on his science test (bonus question). He was shouting, "Best test score EVER!"

  5. Being a curriculum addict is fun until you need to label so many things to take to used curriculum sales!

      Addicts hold onto their things "just in case" they might need them. ;-)

      Usually true, but when your kids have outgrown something and you need money for new stuff, you get desperate!

      LOL, I'll be at the sale. From one addict to another!

  6. First day of co-op was a huge success! We had so much fun!

  7. You know it's a good day when your 10 year old son is in the back seat singing Les Mis songs. He's learning Gavroche's parts with the accent!

      HaHa! I have to laugh because my daughter is right now singing "24601" in the kitchen! :)

  8. After watching a few select scenes of Les Mis, ds said tonight, "Let's play Les Mis and go around to all the neighbors and collect their furniture!".

  9. Enjoying a cup of IKEA decaf right now...so good!

  10. Heading out soon to co-op. I'm sad because we'll only have 1 day left. It's been such a fun year!

  11. I'm getting ready to take my dd to Sound of Music practice. I'm so excited that she is going to be in the nun chorus and be Sister Sophia.

      Dd18 is the Baroness and dd13 is the youngest child in their production!

      Wow, 2 in the production is wonderful! Ds didn't want to try out.

  12. I'm super excited today! We just found out that my dd is going to be Sister Sophia in The Sound of Music!

  13. We took today off of school because I have caught a spring cleaning bug. Next week is looking more and more like an early spring break!

      Gotta use it while the inspiration is there! Otherwise, who knows when it'll come back?

    2. mom31257

      mom31257

      Well, I think I just had my inspiration dashed! I fell today during a co-op class (ask me how!), and my ribcage landed on a sound board on a cart. I don't have any fractures, but I have a large contusion that's probably going to take a few weeks to heal. No pushing, pulling, or lifting for me for some time.

  14. The cat we took in has seemingly gained a lot of weight this week. Please tell me it's because we are feeding her well!

      I love kittens. :)

  15. The stray cat we decided yesterday on keeping was gone all day and has returned tonight! Ds cried a lot this afternoon because he thought it had left or was hurt.

      So glad you you're keeping it! You should make sure he/she is fixed! It will also keep it home more! :))

      We are supposed to get a voucher for it in the mail. It should make it cost just $15 to do it. A mobile unit comes twice a month to our county.

  16. I'm spending today thinking through how to make the rest of this year easier because I am starting a part-time job Monday.

  17. Well I'm getting to play the role of "Mean Mommy" today taking away privileges from ds. He would rather play than do school for some odd reason! LOL!

  18. Christmas came early at our house today because of leaving town to be with family! I got the Hobbit soundtrack!!!!

  19. My status is feeling judged by an insensitive person. Somehow I knew it would happen sometime on this trip!

      Sorry you are feeling judged.

    2. mom31257

      mom31257

      Yes, and worst thing is that it's my sister. I came with her on a trip and brought some homemade gifts to work on. She asked me why did I decide to do that (duh, dh is laid off??). She has been peeking over my shoulders and commenting on things taking a lot of time, asking me how much stuff costs, etc. I think she's trying to judge if it's "worth" it. She even went so far as to tell me not to do anything for her. I had planned on making some things for our family, but now...

  20. I'm enjoying a few days at the beach with my sister and away from the kids and my husband. It's been very relaxing!

  21. You are welcome for the idea about Psalms! I have really been enjoying it so much. We read Psalm 23 today. It is one of my favorites.
