1:30 - 1:45 - ACK missed the time for yogurt while I was out running errand, sinus' head ache killing me; Arielle reads Science and Japanese with younger two so I can grab lunch.
So thankful for Arielle and Nolan's help today. They made a stressful day "workable." Here she reads a Japanese folktale where a BADGER kills Obasan (Grandmother), cooks her up and puts her in soup. Ojisan (Grandpa) was very sad. These aren't like Aesop's fables. We aren't finding easy take aways....
1:45 - 2:00 - Family Regrouping
2:00 - 3:30 - Couch school with younger two, older ones had free time
3:30 - 5:00 - Family @ Swan Park - not what we'd planned - but it worked with THIS day. This was a GREAT call. We began talking about the kids wanting to go camping - something we've not found time to do since we've been here. I agreed to take them camping alone. We can do this. We'll make some plans.
5:00 - 7:00- Add starter to yogurt (will it even work now that timing is off?); make 2 pizzas for the kids (1/2 cheese/1/2 stuff crust turkey pepperoni and 1 turkey pepperoni) and a small veggie for me/ no cheese for me. Kids set up the tent in the backyard - first step to making a Mom and Kids camping trip work. We have dinner.
7:30 - 9:00 - Play games in the tent with kids, watch stars, visit.
Stacia thinks she's NEVER been camping as she's "only been in the trailer."
Michael got home around 8:00 p.m. and had to search for us....fun times....Kids sleep in tent - not us. LOL
10:00 - um....this is NOT yogurt! YUCK!
