fabulous and so empty.
Primarily started as a homeshcool blog, I switch to grief support due to a family suicide and then back to the latest recipe. There is so much more to all of this for life is changing moment by moment--the kids grow, we age and we live. This is my life to the best of my ability.

OH the company I try not to keep....
DO YOU THINK THEY WILL GET IT? Yesterday was one person after another wanting to hang out at my house. They let me feed them, allow them to swim--sometimes naked and let me tell you, some times it is better if people remain clothed even if a bathing suit is small clothing. As for the overstaying of the welcome, DAMN. No one here seems to understand that when I say 300 times I have things to do, that I really have things to do. Here is to my wasted Friday and the note that should save my Saturday. Oh wait, they may not know how to read....Yes I am that aggravated that I wasted a day and now I have to wait the weekend pout before I finish my research. Also, I thought I had made it clear that school days are for school!!!!!!!!
I have a SINKING feeling that my note will be ignored, each "guest" believeing it is not meant for them. SIGH
Another month down
Even if only half way there. It has been a year of ups and downs. I would say more often down than up. Yesterday we made paper bag puppets instead of doing hard core schooling. L's speech therapy was cancelled sand I didn't get the head start application in yet but finally have all the paperwork. She wasn't there when I went to my cancelled appointment. Is has to do her Bio exam today and I have the code written on my arm so she has no excuse for not getting it done. The girls have been helping more than usual and I have finally settled on a "home" for G. Please let this be the right thing to do! I know I cannot stand to be around her most of the time and feel rotten for even thinking it never mind typing it. I love all my children but some make it harder than others.
Another week and it will be a year of J in and out of my life. I wonder if he ever thinks about me. I obviously think about him, LOL.
anyway, the following video is of the eldest two making STEAK BURGERS (read add A1 steak sauce) And Amelia who hac become very clever with plastic or foam utensils. My booby boy is up and trying to climb on my lap so here is the video and I will type when I am no longer a pacifier.
