blizzard of '08

That green lump is the girl playing in the 12-15 inches of snow that we already have, (it's 10:30); and it's forecasted to fall for the rest of the day. Uncle Scooter must be thinking of us and his incipient trip home.

In other news, I did cancel the boys' history class yesterday. I was still feverish when I woke at 7:00, and decided to bag it. I asked the 'Savant to call the families a little later on that AM (one of the benefits of homeschooling is being able to sleep in a bit later than our counterparts) and went back to sleep. I next woke up around 11:00, fever gone, but wondering how many buffalo had stampeded over me while I had been sleeping. Made my way down to the couch, stopping to make PB toast and tea and stayed there for the rest of the day. I did get the kids through their math, spelling, piano practice and then took another nap while they read their history books.

The 'Savant got home from his hardworking day, then made supper, (the teriyaki beef that we were going to make for history class). It tasted pretty good, but I could only eat a little. I recuperated from dinner by lying on the couch and admiring the new hole made in the Boy's mouth by his second lost tooth in a week:

Today, I am sitting on the couch, but am contemplating getting some laundry done, so the healing is almost done.

And lookee, lookee, the 'Savant, having a snow day himself (from Free Geek) has (grumpily) showed me how to upload pictures! If I can remember how, there may be regular illustrations again! Yippee Skippy!
