lanalouwho Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 KONMARIE! It's already fairly decluttered, although I will probably donate a few more things in the process. I think I've figured out how I want the schoolroom/playroom set up, but in order to get it how I want it, I need to upgrade some furniture. I might have to go back to the casino to pay for it. 😠2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsuga Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 :svengo: Jean is NOT a slacker. Window washing? Are we supposed to do that? Right now we are having an influx of these horrible extra large midges that die in our windows. I don't know if Jean has to vacuum her windows (like, between the window and the screen) but we do! We do not keep an extra clean house but those flies somehow get in between windows when we open the window even a crack, then up and die in there. It's just so, so gross. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junie Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 (edited) :seeya: I tried to go to church this morning. We got about a mile down the road before dh decided that my migraine should keep me at home today. I was trying to tough it out, but he made the right decision. I wanted to go to church this evening, but I was so light sensitive this afternoon that even my (very dark) sunglasses would not have been enough. So, I have enjoyed a lot of peace and quiet today. :) Since I wasn't feeling really, really bad, I was able to get quite a bit of school prep done. My three high schoolers have to each write a biography report on a person who is deaf to finish out our ASL class. I fought with the printer and got a bunch of internet articles printed out for them. I was originally going to have them print their own, but tomorrow is going to be crazy and having three of them fighting over the computer and printer is not something that I want to listen to. :smash: :smash: :smash: Edited March 18, 2018 by Junie 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 So we heard earlier that FIL started talking crazy and was running a fever around midnight last night, so MIL called an ambulance to take them to the hospital (an hour away). He's had blood and urine taken and they are planning to give him an MRI in the morning. :svengo: It seems he is doing better now - still running a fever, but is coherent.

It's just so, so gross.We all pitch in and have a clean up day at our church about 3x a year. Today was one of those days. We aren’t doing the normal maintenance cleaning but deeper cleaning including windows. But only the inside windows because no one can figure out how to clean the outsides without killing ourselves. Some people decluttered old paperwork. Some were having fun with my Dh’s new pole saw. I actually get to know people a lot more working next to them than I do making small talk over coffee.

Critterfixer Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 I've read thirty-six chapters of Imager. I may have to reconsider my stance on first person POV. Of course, this writer is in his seventies and has written forty-odd published books I believe. He knows how it's done. :thumbup1: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critterfixer Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 I liked Imager! I read all of his Recluse series also. Imager got a very good in my notes. I'm putting it down to come back and read again if I'm forced to convert a third person POV into a first. I would have liked to see the main character more conflicted, and I wanted a little more heat in the romance arc. :blush: But it was a good story, and I'm tempted to try another book by the same author. Not a "got-to-have-the-sequel-yesterday" kind of tempted, but certainly a "let-me-see-what's-on-the-library-shelf-next-weekend" kind of tempted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junie Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Dd7 is doing some random workbook that we found when we were cleaning out a cabinet. The page she is working on now is teaching "now and then". One of the examples is washing machine/hand washing clothing. Dd10 just interjected that some people might still hand wash clothing, so it is not truly a "then". Didn't we just discuss this last week? :) 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prairiewindmomma Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 The Imager series has 11? books. I have also read the Corean Chronicles and Spellsong series. I didn’t like those. We used to own the entire Saga of Recluse, but it didn’t make the move. Fall of Angels and Magic of Recluse are probably my two favorites from that (non-sequential) series. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
