Saturday Morning Eccentricities

What, your husband doesn't lounge around in his courderoy vest, tie, and pocket watch on Saturday morning preparing for his Sunday sermon?
And your daughters don't inhale half of a watermelon in 15 minutes?

And your son doesn't wander around the house randomly quacking and mooing?
Yeah, my family doesn't do that either.

Garden Catch Up

Image
I've spent the last two days outdoors doing garden/yard work.  On Tuesday, I caught up in my yard with weeding my garden, mowing the lawn, cutting out volunteer trees where they don't belong, and other small chores I hadn't gotten around to doing.  It took most of the day.  I was tired.  Yesterday, I caught up at my mom's garden.  Half of it was not weedy due to heavy mulching.  The other half was amazingly weedy.  It took me four hours to clean that up and finish staking the tomatoes.  After supper, I spent several hours at garden #3 attacking the weeds there.  I am about 70% done there, but went home early due to tiredness and irriation at the approximately 3,485 mosquitoes that decided I looked like a good supper.  Needless to say, my body is tired and in need of a rest.  Today will be a low key day where I get caught up on indoor, less active duties.  I am slowly picking up my running again.  I didn't even tr...

Field Trip

Last week, I sent the kids on separate field trips.  They each attended a day of public school with a friend.  David went with a 7th grade buddy (David is technically in 6th grade, age-wise) and had a decent time.  His first and foremost complaint was that his lunch was too small and he was still hungry after he finished his lunch.  Do you think the boy is growing???  He came home being happy about being homeschooled.  He did enjoy PE because they got to roller skate.  He also enjoyed the study hall where he could do what he wanted to do, which was see how high he could go in the Mayan number system we had studied earlier in the week. So the day was pretty uneventful for him.  He said he doesn't think he wants to try out public school right now. The girls were a different story.  They each went for a half day with their respective friends that are in their grade.  They came home bursting with excitement over how much they lo...

A Tribute To My Mom

I am undertaking a three week challenge as a way of support for my dear mother.  I would include a picture here of her if I could, but she would not appreciate that (though I do have permission to write this post) Years ago, as a wee little lass, she had the misfortune of contracting polio.  While she was able to regain normal function and led a very normal life for most of her years, polio has reared its ugly head once more in her life, this time in the form of post-polio syndrome.  Click here for a link to just what post-polio is.  For those of you who prefer a one sentence summary of PPS, it's mainly a continual weakening of the muscles that were affected when polio was first contracted - it can range from mild to quite debilitating.  My mom has been struggling with full blown PPS for a couple of years now.  There is really no cure at all, few medicines to help, just learning to listen to your body in what it now has decided that it can no long...
