It will be grand. I will wear red or purple. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Important information alert. My inside kitty loves canned green beans. (And, yes, that also means that I am feeding my family canned green beans tonight. It's somewhat vegetal. Sort of. [DD considers S&W green beans to be a "treat." Seriously.] After an entire day of editing, I poured myself a glass of wine. Do y'all think that's sufficient for dinner? I mean, grapes are good, right?) Our kitty loves ketchup. I caught him one day licking the entire top of the meatloaf. I was so mad. He didn't want the meat - just the ketchup. Anyway. . . you might want to report me for this but I did not have the time or energy or money for that matter to replace the meat for dinner so I took a knife, cut off the top inch of meatloaf and we then ate the rest. I did something similar when Rocky grabbed my bbq ribs right off the grill. After I chased him around and around the yard to the merriment of the kids and all the neighbors, I took those ribs, cut off the end that he had grabbed, stuck the meat back on the grill to sterilize it and then served it to the family. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somewhat related aside: A lady who knows both me and college girl told her that she had my grace and elegance. I about spit coffee. I was all "Grace and elegance??? Really? I always thought I was bumbling through just trying hard not to choke on my own spit!" True story. You can't make up stuff like that. So please imagine me as graceful and elegant.

texasmama Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Dh has to get up early and leave the house at 4 am so we just had a BIG talk about where mama will sleep since I don't dig being awakened by showers in the middle of the night. Ds12 does not want me. Ds14 cares not as long as it doesn't affect him. Little dd begged me to sleep with her in her single bed. We lit upon the idea of me sleeping in little dd's bottom bunk bed in ds14's room with little dd on a sleeping bag on the floor. We did have a spare mattress, but no one knows where it is. Please note the inflexibility of ds12. No one wants to sleep in a room with him anyway due to his snorting due to allergies. But he does have the cat, and I like her. I have taken Benadryl and melatonin so I hope this is effective in knocking me the heck out. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 ATI = Advanced Training Institute - a homeschooling curriculum written by Bill Gothard Gothard = Bill Gothard, the founder of Institute of Basic Life Principles, a "cookbook" of sorts that he formulated for living a Christian life according to his own legalistic principles.

lots of little ducklings Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Life is full of unanswered questions.
