    Moving week, bittersweet. We will be closer to all the things we do, but losing our house is hard.

    Of course I think my kids are fantastic, but it is heartwarming to hear when others find my kids to be wonderful people too.

      That was us on Saturday night - it gives the warm and fuzzies.

    When you do all the things you are supposed to, check all the boxes, follow the rules, and it still all goes wrong, then what? I quit.

      The process is the achievement. You are still here and that is 99% of the battle. Hugs.

      You have just described nearly every science experiment we have tried. Sometimes the process of failing is also educational. Keep your chin up. =)

    It's not often I am completely horrified at the callousness and disregard for humanity displayed by individuals on the internet. But today I am. Good Job Facebook.

      I don't know what you saw, but I see some of those kind pretty regularly. Makes me not believe in the goodness of humanity sometimes.

    Bummed, I was given a free table loom. After cleaning it up and checking it out I realized it's missing parts. No idea where/how to fix it.

      Perhaps a place like this? http://www.woolery.com/Store/pc/Table-Looms-Parts-Accessories-c482.htm

    2. PinkyandtheBrains.

      PinkyandtheBrains.

      I looked there but couldn't find the specific parts. I do plan to email them. Thank you!

    DH moved the cars around outside to adjust drift patterns, this way the kids will have huge drifts to play in when it warms up enought to be outside safely. SNOW!

      8filltheheart

      I'm trying to figure out how it is going to go from 70 degrees here today to 16 degrees tomorrow night. Brrrrrr. Those snow drifts on TV are like, well, TV. ;)

    Summer camp sticker shock, apparently only the wealthy can send their gifted kiddos.

    1. Dana

      Dana

      Yup.

      Sounds like some have scholarships that may be worth applying for...but very pricey!

  19. PinkyandtheBrains.
