The Progeny
Week Be Done
Almost.
Vacation Bible School is over, all but the program this evening. Then Carolyn goes in to take the ACT once more, tomorrow morning.
It's been a big week for her since she was the teacher for the littlest class. She loved it but that kind of thing is tiring.
I was working at the kitchen on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and today. Guess I'll get back at it, tomorrow. There are still two cupboards and eight drawers to clean out. And that's just one wall. A whole 'nuther wall to be done, but I doubt every nook and cranny will get covered this go-round. Still, I did throw away coupons dating back to 2005 so I guess that's progress.
Next week is crunch time for reunion preparation. Also getting back to some of the school that hasn't been finished. I have a feeling I'll be working with Trevor and Nolan into July. Then it will be time to start on Carolyn's transcript...
Feels like summer is either half gone or half planned and I haven't finished the 2011/2012 school year.
This morning saw an interesting incident with the caterpillars. The eggs of which were found on a milkweed plant and presumed to be monarchs.
Alas, they have turned into the fuzzy-wuzzy type, and since there are 9 of them it looks to be a good sampling for winter weather prediction.
However, what happened in the flurry of getting ready for Bible School and me harassing the boys to get their charges new leaves is this: I picked up Trevor's jar (which has at least 7) not realizing the lid hadn't been fastened securely. The jar fell away and broke. A rather unfortunate incident as Melinda was in her bare feet by the stove. And there was no one to do clean up but me.
I don't think anyone cut their feet, but I do have a slice across my thumb. And through some confusion on my own part, I ended up putting all the caterpillars into one jar for a bit. Then I had to guess which ones were Nolan's.....(I think I can get away with this since they seem to change color as they molt and grow).
Who knew when I graduated from college that I'd end up doing such important work. Tweet
