Today was a WEIRD day. I had a show on DVD that needed to go back to the library with 2 episodes left on it, and some packages and letters to mail, so I encouraged my little fauxmschooler to color and read, and then watch educational tv on the tablet while I got that done. … [Read more…]

We had a crazy awesome weekend. My husband decided to come home early on Friday. He and I relaxed while the kids napped, and then we gathered some groceries and called it an early night. Or at least I did. Lots of sleep, and I felt GOOD on Saturday. So after relaxing (and eating donuts) … [Read more…]
