KrissiK Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 I really just want to do something today other than.... budget stuff, 15 minutes of sanding baseboards, filling and running the dishwasher and folding laundry. I want to go for a drive in New England and see some autumn leaves and have a COFFEE~D somewhere and spend the night in a b&b. Is that really too much to Ask? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junie Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 The MRI went well, I treated myself to lunch, and I napped when I got home. Dh did math with some of the girls while I was gone and now he's making dinner. I feel spoiled. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slache Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 My dad is gone. We may now commence our regular routine where Matt listens to me 30% of the time as opposed to our visitors routine where Matt listens to me divorce% of the time. I am so tired. And we have a birthday party tomorrow. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slache Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 After the disaster that was this this camping trip MIL is trying to get Matt to surprise me with a family (MIL/FIL/Us and kids) camping trip in NM in a rented camper. She has been trying to talk us into a camper so we can go on family vacations every spring break and summer. I don't want a camper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Good morning! We were rudely woken at 6:30 by what sounds like a 50-foot pogo stick jumping in the parking lot. It's keeping at a steady 60 per minute. This hotel better have some strong coffee. Ds23 says it's 40 per minute. Still going strong. We'll go pick up the girls in a while to go visit a neaby national archaology site (ancient mounds) and then stop by a local international food and arts festival. There will be Phillipine music and dancing And banboo tinikling at 2:00. Later back on campus is a festival kind of thing and fireworks and then we drive home. COFFEE!! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrissiK Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 (edited) So, last night at the Afsa I bought a package of 6 rolls for sub sandwiches for tonight. I looked at the package today.... there are only 5 rolls.? I asked my family, no one took a roll. Which means..... someone stole one at the Afsa and I didn’t notice there was one missing till I got home. Well, thr Afsa is in the neighboring town, so there’s no way i’m Driving over there, waiting in line to talk to a manager, blah, blah, blah.?I certainly will not be eating the rest of those rolls. Who knows whose dirty thieving hands were in that bag. I think I will run to the Chinese place and get dinner. It’s only the girls and me tonight anyway. I don’t feel like cooking.

I climbed up onto the bathroom counter to wipe the lights. Then I couldn't figure out how to get down. I've done that. I no longer jump off anything since the time I hopped off my dryer and my knee popped out. I wasn't even standing on it, just sitting so it was literally only about 2 feet to the ground. Today I cleaned the bathroom, which was absolutely disgusting, but then dh washed the dog in the tub so it already doesn't look great. We seem to have a super-dusty bathroom so it gets dingy really really fast. I'm also doing laundry and preparing for next week's classes. I'm a totally secular homeschooler and I teach science based on generally accepted scientific principles and using mostly college or high school textbooks, along with the vast collection of resources I have from 9 years of homeschooling, a Biology degree, 7 years as a 4-H leader, 10 years as a docent, etc. I was seriously considering getting an Apologia book since the labs are designed to be done at home, and while some things in my classroom are a better set-up than a home, I don't have a full hood or other things that come up in the books I have. I was thinking I could just look at the labs and ignore everything else and maybe it wouldn't drive me nuts. I managed to get my hands on a free copy of Exploring Creation with Physics. And that's a great big NOPE. I can't do it. I read one page on Newton and couldn't go on. I didn't really NEED another book anyway. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 I drove 3 hours or so. Starbucks saved me from falling asleep while driving. We had an excellent meeting. My problem person missed half the meeting. And was on pretty good behavior. We got lots of stuff discussed- or really explained to me because I am new to this part of camp prep. I have to set another meeting for next month with different people. We are 3/4 of the way home. We stopped at Chick fil A for dinner. Dd came with me and helped babysit. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
