Guess which one's which. Slache, stop screaming karate noises in your children's faces. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 The boys are gone. Deep breath. The mom texted me this morning - apparently yesterday her older daughter WAS home, but had walked there and did not bother to walk across the street to let us know she was there. And the mom begged to let the boys come for a couple hours this morning so she could finish her job. My girls are also happy to have the house "back".

Another Lynn Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Youngest and I had a "playdate" this afternoon with IRL homeschool friends. My friend and I were talking about school plans for fall and when I mentioned American History for my 12yo ds she asked me what we would be using. LOL. It was one of those moments when you go "oh man, I know I did this homework..... where did I put it?" Huh? Um, well we might use these dvds on the presidents, but I still need to watch them first. And I'm going to have him reading something. What was I going to have him read? Oh, poo, I don't know what I'm doing!!!!! I'm glad she asked me, because it made me realize I might need to work on those plans a little bit more, lol. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still no food for... 26(?) days but at least the hospital is admitting her rather than sending her home again and she's getting fluids through an IV instead of, you know, dying. Off topic.

We’ve never been there before, but DH’s brother and family and DH’s parents go every year and wanted the rest of the family to come, too, this year. So, we are going.

Jean in Newcastle Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Did I say "Good morning"? Taking dd to testing is interfering with my ITTing! Dd said this morning that she wouldn't want to go to public school because just two days of testing puts her around too many annoying people. She wouldn't let me complain to the proctor though about how they are letting boys talk loudly during the testing. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
