just got back
from another visit, this time almost all the way across Indiana. Was worried about traffic, but shouldn’t have been because it wasn’t bad at all.
Had fun listening to Glenn Beck on the way back to Cincy, he’s fast becoming one of my favorite Talk Hosts. They were doing this thing where they were […]

Timelines
I’ll admit it…we don’t have a timeline for our history study. Many homeschool families talk about their great timelines that spread across their basement or school room wall. We have neither a school room or a basement wall. Other options made my blood pressure rise because they seemed too time intensive. So we’re going to […]

Got a little culture
We went downtown this afternoon to the Cincinnati Art Museum. We’ve been studying Renaissance and Reformation artists. Chief was hoping they had a DaVinci but he had to settle for lesser known Renaissance artists. Princess and myself enjoyed a special exhibit of old dresses made by famous Cinti dressmakers. KP and Chief amused themselves with […]

OK so like I said I have the latest redhat CD’s but when I tried to install it today, the md5sum didn’t check out and redhat didn’t think I had good cd’s to install from. a cursory search on google revealed that this is not a rare occurrence and probably has to do with […]

Jazz goes to the vet
The vet says the licking is caused by an allergic reaction. To what we don’t know. He got an injection of cortisone to stop the reaction. We think he feels better tonight. He’s got more pep than Jazz ever shows and he’s quit licking.
The vet had a poster showing what a normal, overweight or […]

Family Bookstore Sunday hours
Jera posted recently at their blog about the new Sunday hours at Family Bookstores. We noticed the sign at our store says “open between services on Sunday 12-5.
Apparently the qualifier “between services” justifies the whole thing.

Family pic day
We had a family picture taken today. The photographer is great. She’s a homeschool Mom who takes school pictures for our support group.
Although it was only 45 degrees, we did them outside at a park. The leaves are mostly gone but I think they will still be pretty. The kids held up well despite […]

Cat doubles as a lampshade
Jazz has been licking himself incessantly until he’s licked sores on his stomach and legs. He’s made it significantly worse within the last two days with today being the worst. He’s got an appt to see the vet on Monday morning but we needed a way to get him through the weekend. We just made […]

Attic clean up
KP put flooring in our attic last year and it looked fabulous. Everything was nicely organized. Over time we got lazy and started just shoving stuff in the door. Its so bad now that when we shove things in the door, we have to quickly slam the door or the item pops back out.
Here’s the […]
