My house is quiet. My dh has a dr appt and the dgds are watching pbs. 1. Joyce has adapted well going back to ps. 2. The girls and I stayed outside even after dark last night letting Joyce and Toni play soccer. No bugs and the temperature was cool. 3. It's 8:30 in the morning and I could use a nap!
I think I could nap, too! 1. I have my yearly check-up this morning. 2. Dh has the day off. 3. It is nice and cool today!
IT is nice and cool so far this am! 1-I am not planning to go running around to day, just walking! 2- we have to do extra work today because we skipped some work yesterday to go to Park day meeting that lasted too long! 3- Dd is doing a great job staying focused on school this year!
We skipped work yesterday too. I helped Samantha plan a party instead. Back to the books today. 1. I slept LATE today. We've been staying up late the last 3 nights watching a pbs documentary on WWII and I have to go to bed earlier tonight. 2. I am making homemade chicken noodle soup for dinner in my crock pot. 3. Samantha and I have been butting heads lately. I think it is just preteen hormones.
Elijah and I are butting heads too - preteen. 1. Beautiful day today, sunny and 75 degrees. 2. The leaves are changing and they are beautiful. 3. Can't wait until next week to meet more hsers from here.
The weather is nice here too!! OHHH and the leaves are amazing right now! 1. I am dragging my feet about making dinner (grilled cheese and tomato soup) 2. I was doing great with flylady, but the past few days I have fallen off the wagon. 3. My kids think they are dogs and are crawling around barking :lol:
I'm off the wagon with you, Sommer! I have GOT to get back on!!! 1. Ds is playing with his trucks. 2. I am getting some stuff ready for school tomorrow. 3. I need to go change the litter box. I hate that job!
1. Went to the library, bank and 2 different Wal Marts this morning. I hate WalMart. 2. Had a tv dinner for lunch. 3. I just about ripped Samantha's head off! She is ticking me off big time lately. Preteen crap. Anyone want an 11 year old girl??
Kids have been getting on my nerves lately too. 1) we decorated for fall. 2) Samantha just found the hair brush isn't it amazing........ she is the one that always has tangles. (she has been known to hide the brushes and combs). 3) DH may be getting a raise soon, he got advanced to do extra work (paper work) in the machine shop...... he does his own work plus will find and get organized paper work for the others.
I will trade you a 12 year old boy for your 11 year old girl for a couple of days. Maybe we need a change of pace I too am ready to rip Elijah's head off!!!
OH grama you dont know what you are in for! Lol Id take the boy over the girl at that age! heehe, 1. My dd is emotions flying lately too, its the age! 2. ds is doing really well in math5.. I am wondering if it is too easy? 3. I planned out a whole months curriculuim for church club night thing ... now I just have to find a new teacher for it!
TMom, You may want to give him the chapter test, or however that program works, and let him advance some until he doesn't know the info. so well. I do that, Jackie does that....and probably others too. Keep him challenged or he may start not liking math! 1) Mydd is 10 and is an Angel! I'm praying for her already for her teen years! 2) dd's kitty is on my lap and batting at my fingers as I type! She is just adorable! 3) ds did his first "SHOP" project today (Scraping stuff off the back of our loose 12x12 tile and the floor, then putting the stuff on the back to reset it and setting the tile in)! Well, he did the first and biggest part. Now we wait 24 hours for it to harden before we put the calking stuff in.
Thanks for the suggestion Deena, I am looking through it more, it has a test every two weeks right now. We are monday for the test though. He does 2-3 pages of work a day, and half of it is review still to the point its simple, a couple parts are actually challenging, and he enjoyed learning or relearning permiter. 1- I am wishing I had the teacher book to see if it had any suggestions as well. 2- I need to be more attentive to my dd's lessons, she is working well in the reading part but needs to work on writing. 3- I am tired
I am tired too - I am the asst soccer coach and we had our first practice today. Here is me: 1. As a result of above, I picked up pizza tonight! 2. I am watching the news, and I HATE watching the news 3. we are doing poem memorization and my ds is memorizing The Raven by Poe - how cool is that?!
I love watching the news, but moreso when there is something big going on in the world other than the war. 1. We are going to try to get the kids to all cooperate for some pictures tonight 2. We are going to have meatloaf for dinner 3. I gave my son a simple Halloween assignment and he is balking at it...grrrr
I don't like watching tv period, but I do sometimes, would much rather read a good book. 1. Dh and Elijah are at my dad's working on his big tractor. 2. Gianna hasn't felt well all day. 3. I did part of my Christmas shopping on line today.
Hubby and Garrett are down at the farm working on my truck 1. It is one of those long boring days here! 2. Rylee and Reagan are the sweetest kids when Garrett isn't around to influence them! 3. I have lived my whole life without a favorite color!
