Our Unexpected Visitors

our unexpected visitors

Last weekend we had some unexpected visitors, they marched right in and demanded to be fed. But I’m getting ahead of myself here. It was the big family get-together with uncles, aunts, and cousins, the day was filled with the usual. Lots of this:    And plenty of these:    We knew a few of our rather large number had slipped off, but with food time rapidly approaching we also knew they would come back and thought little more of [...]

People are Stupid

Can I really be that dumb?

People are Stupid! Ok to be fair, when I say people are stupid, I mean I am stupid. I pulled the dumbest stunts sometimes. Really, I begin to think that I have an evil (or maybe just dumb) twin in my head. I mean after all, I am really capable of such stupidity? Apparently yes!  Sadly, most of this happens when I am driving. To be honest, I would say I am a good driver, yet there are these times [...]

You may be wondering why I haven’t done it sooner. [...]

Home School Troubles

School Stuff

I was home schooled from 5th grade up. It is one of the best things my mom ever did for me.  But even home school can have its problems. Those are usually the kids. Moms, do you have any idea what’s going on in the school room when you walk out of it? My mom didn’t either! I think it’s just something about January, Christmas break is over, and even though we were supposed to be doing our school, we [...]
