Family Fun Gone Awry

Quote of the Day: "God says, don't count to far or you'll break your brain!" Am I the only one who "subtly" tests her homeschool children at all hours of the day?
Michael and I had a plan. Geocaching from 9 - noon. Lunch. Pool with the littles. Dinner. Mike would go finish work on tomorrow's sermon.

Somehow, we didn't make the 9 a.m. thing...... then the older boys had work and other plans. Jared had a sore throat....

Michael DID taste the chips and voted for Ghiradelli. It's final...this family prefers the Giradelli - though I and one other like the Guittard. LOL Arielle documented this moment with 12 photos - this is my favorite. We headed out to geocache at 11:00. We did not find ANY of the caches that we sought. At 1:00 I saw dancing spots.....I was either about to have a high blood pressure attack or a migraine. Can we vote here???? ::snort:: We headed home. On the way, I realized my eyes have been wonky all day, I've been nauseated - I thought a migraine was on the way. We got home by 1:15 and it had already hit. Mike told me to take meds and head for bed. I did.

He decided to go ahead and take the kids who were home to the pool so that the house would be quiet. I had Stacia, she napped for a couple of hours. They picked up Arielle's friend, Ashley and headed for the pool.

Yep - my head still hurts...but I'm taking drugs. I've not had a migraine since early in Mike's deployment - would have been Sept/Oct....the diet and exercise changes have really helped, I think.

Mike is at the office working on his sermon. I'm going to see what I can do about keeping the lights down and the children quiet and then go to bed as early as possible...and yes, take some more drugs.

I think there were moments of family fun in the day - it just wasn't the together day we had planned.
