RASCAL????

Late-breaking news:

Rascal is a rascalina....she's laid 2 eggs. Is this the science experiement that keeps on giving????? There is no WAY those eggs of hers will hatch...but wow....quails and more quails. {G}

I'm now feeling sick. Stacia's fever goes down and then uP!!!! The other two are lethargic but their fevers are under control.

YeHAW...summer....
Yes, I now have 3 kids that have sore throats and fevers. The charts I'm keeping would put the local hospital to shame, I tell you!

I tried and tried at blogthings to find a quiz that would make me show up as a sleep deprived mom with barbie blonde frizzed hair and puke down my front...but it doesn't seem to exist. This is what happens when I visit my daughter's myspace...she needs to come home and save her mother!
I have no clue how I came up with this - I would have guessed Italian...but I'm certainly in the right part of the country to find Mexican food.

You Are Mexican Food
Spicy yet dependable.
You pull punches, but people still love you.
What Kind of Food Are You?
HELP I'M SLEEP DEPRIVED AND CAN'T QUIT TAKING THESE TESTS......WHO WOULD HAVE GUESSED THE $$ YOU COULD SAVE ON THERAPY AT BLOGTHINGS.COM

You are Ocean Blue
You're both warm and practical. You're very driven, but you're also very well rounded.You tend to see both sides to every issue, and people consider you a natural diplomat.
What Color Blue Are You?
OK - this may be more like it...though Stacia said "mama" when she saw the muppet figures... Folks who know me insist I am NOT shy but that is God's work in my life....my family will tell you that I grew up very, very shy. {G}

Your Personality Profile

You are shy and intelligent... and a very hard worker.You're also funny, but many people don't see your funny side.Your subtle dry humor leaves your close friends in stitches.
The World's Shortest Personality Test
OK trying this muppet personality test again....www.blogthings.com Not sure it is helping - yes, I've been up to long - and so have the kids, BTW.

You Are Miss Piggy
A total princess and diva, you're totally in charge - even if people don't know it.You want to be loved, adored, and worshiped. And you won't settle for anything less.You're going to be a total star, and you won't let any of the "little people" get in your way.Just remember, piggy, never eat more than you can lift!

Hmmm....after my serious, non-fiction month of April I seem to have slipped back to fun reading. Of course, I'm also working through several non-fiction at the moment. The main one being *Teaching the Trivium* which is going to take me some time to finish.

Other Random Thoughts
I can't believe May is over. Wow. The girls will be home in 3 months! They leave next week for a month in Boston. Then they will spend July in children and youth camps.

Stacia is up and "better" - well her fever is no longer 103* and higher. I need to run and get more meds.

Nolan is complaining of a sore throat this a.m. I may have to haul the TV/VCR out and let them watch some movies.

God was watching out for me when I bought "Blue Sky Organic Lemon Lime Creme" soda. We don't drink much soda at all and I wondered about it - but wanted to try it and was willing to split cases with Melody so she could try it. WELL....when the kids have fevers they've somehow gotten into the habbit of red jello and 7 up. Since we don't do red jello AT ALL these days it is very nice that I happen to have some organic 7 up type soda on hand. Isn't that cool?

I am going to be able to buy TOG4 used - good price and no markings....AND she has year 4 books I can purchase too - I need to look over the list today in between fevers, meds, cleaning up puke and such. {G}
