Short update, Second week of summer
I’m having trouble finding my writing head space. Partly this is a normal effect of having the kids home all day. It is also due to the fact that my laptop still refuses to speak to the internet. I’ve got a friend coming to help trouble shoot later in the week. But for now it leaves me blogging down in my basement office. I much prefer to do my writing in a room with windows.
We had family home evening tonight. Its the first time in weeks. It is the first time in even longer that Howard and I did not veto Tag as the activity of choice. So we ran around outside with the kids. Miraculously we did not have a single tantrum. There was much laughing and running. Everyone got a turn to be It. Then we came inside for pudding. The choice of snack was somewhat ironic since the subject of the lesson was “Eating Healthy.” But a good time was had by all, and it was a good start on my intention of putting family stuff on the calendar this week.
Tomorrow I get to have my annual blood draw to check my thyroid levels. I also get to sort invoices. Then the kids and I all run away from the house to do something elsewhere. We’re not sure yet where.
