I thought about saying she could cut out the cardio for a day since I'm sure her heart rate went up plenty. Too soon?

Just a bit. Tomorrow

Friendship boats aren't running right now, so we took the bus to DHS. On the way over, my brother, completely out of the blue, says to me, "You know, you were really grumpy and weird when you were in middle school."

I don't know where that came from and I'm still not sure how to respond to it.

Half-day Friday...!!!!!!!

OK, so actually they’re more like 5/9ths-day Fridays, ‘cause we work 8a-6p Mon.-Thurs. and then get off at 1p on Friday...and then I drive 30-ish miles north of the office to pick up DS from his job at the Salvation Army, so actually get home somewhere between 2:30-3p...!!!!!
Either way, TGIF...!!!!!!!

One of my favorite math problems

Hahaaa..!!!
I have always joked with new hires at the firm that we calculate trapezoidal footage instead of square footage...!!!!!

It was a productive day we went to the farm market(cornered the market on peppers again I swear we never have enough), got the fabric for the Harry Potter robes at 70% off, Target run, Walmart, Wegman's, Aldi's and got James set up for his classes. I may have a smallish glass of wine tonight

Poor Mickey! I think he's got an infection...his one ear is all swollen and has red stuff coming out of it.

And, you’d turn green too if that was happening to you...!!!!!

Wish me luck I'm officially a home school mom and James' schedule which he picked out all by himself looks like a tiger mom picked it out. Honors math and science with computer tech and science as his electives. BTW does anybody speak Japanese? That was his language choice. He may wind up living in my basement if I don't have a nervous breakdown first

So how do you handle extra-curriculars like music? He just doesn't do those for this year? Or have you worked something out with the school?

I'm choosing to no longer believe DHS wait times today.

TofT said 30. It actually went straight to the library.

TSM said 45. No way is this 45. We've waited 15 and we're more than halfway through.

My sister knows some Japanese; it’s not a strong point though. Sounds like James is one smart kid!

That’s normal nowadays. I think they like to factor in the ride time as well as wait time. [e.g. FoP wait time (150 min) includes queue, pre-show, and ride time].

I love all your shirts. Your General Tsao’s spelling was correct. Still don’t get what curds are. I just think of Miss Mary Muffet when I hear the word curd.

Cheese curds are just pieces of cheese. Cheese is made of pressed curds. You could also think in terms of cottage cheese those are cheese curds too, just tiny. Curds can be eaten plain, battered, or breaded.

A butter bust. That is a new one.

That's the northern Mid-west for you!

Breakfast out this morning! Cinnamon roll French toast! Yess it was yummy! DH has regular French toast. Mine was prettier! View attachment 305854

Looks good! Disneyland used to have cinnamon roll French toast at the restaurant that overlooks the Rivers of America and it was so fantastic.

It's nice that he is challenging himself. Does this mean that you don't have to worry about snow days anymore?
