Out Ioway

My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of Heaven and earth,
He will not let your foot slip-
He who watches over you will not slumber.
-Psalms 121:2,3

Tomorrow Being Thursday...

...I think I will make it through this week!

Today was test day in math for Nolan and Trevor. This is usually pretty good since there are only 20 problems and no new material. We got done by 12:15, which fufilled my goal related of getting on the treadmill again before lunch.

(everything is scheduled around school and the treadmill)

Despite my thinking up new penalties for Nolan, he still managed new infractions and so I must get more creative.

You would think he'd get tired of being punished...

This evening we decided fairly last minute to head into church for a midweek concert. This means I'm now 2.5 miles behind this week's quota, and it will be worse after tomorrow because that's when Loren and I are planning to go out for the evening. But lost miles are not the end of the world, right? It has to be good to get out of the house--for the kids, this time--even if the concert wasn't up to what I expected.

(bad Ma, for having expectations!)

Other than that everything is the same except for the extraordinary weather. Lots of warmth, and a goodly amount of rain over the past two days.

Hope the spinach, potatoes and peas are thinking productive thoughts!

Leaves are budding and grass in greening. Surely we must have more frosts, but for right now the spring seems to have tripped right on over to summer.

If I were smart, I'd call school to a halt and get something done around the house. I could almost start seedlings along the edges of walls where extra dirt has collected over winter.

I'll have to give it some serious thought while I veg out with TV...
