The increase in meds has made for a sleepy girl. I find myself sitting here trying to do homework or listen to something and then realize my eyes are doing that pre-sleep rolling back into the head. Lovely image eh? I’m hoping my system will adjust to this in a few days and I’ll be seizure free AND awake.
Zoe has turned into a demon about portion control. She actually gets scary. If I even attempt to go over what she considers adequate she gets all growly and gets a mean glare in her eye. She even raised her voice to me. Normally that wouldn’t fly but I did ask her to help me with this. She knows I will be a tough cookie. ( Mmmmm…cookies)
My house needs to go on a diet too. I look around at all the stuff and I just want to scream. How did we acquire all this stuff? I hate shopping. Still, I am drowning in stuff. I see a garage sale in our future. Funny thing is that we have donated so much stuff to other causes and still we have stuff. It’s like cellulite it never goes away. It even multiplies. My house is looking a lot like my thighs.
Saw a wonderful movie last night. It is called “Amazing Grace”. If you haven’t seen it my husband and I highly recommend it. The kids were watching their Netflix picks instead. “Who’s Line Is It Anyway?” A wee bit of a difference in genres.
Well, time to get back to reading my assignments for the girls. Kelsey is working on “The Great Awakening” and Zoe is just starting “World War I”. Like my head isn’t fragmented enough.

Zoe...be kinder to your mother. I know you love her dearly but driving her into cowering submission will only make her harder to manage at the home.
Kelsey...you aren't mentioned in this blog. Are you hiding somewhere planning an flank attack on Dad? I'm sure you are the primary teaser in the family.
Then there is Perry. Perry, with all of your free time, NOT, why don't you ebay all the "stuff" so Mom doesn't have to sit out under a wilting beach umbrella some otherwise lovely Spring day to say, "No, the garage is not..." as people come to your sale.
Back to the girls: HISTORY! You are studying faith and mass death, twom of MY favorite things.
I highly recommend you read the recent biography on Jonathan Edwards called, oddly enough, "Jonathan Edwards", to supplement your Great Awakening texts and you don't want to miss , "Guns of August", which will let you in on how WW I got started. Would you believe a series of unfortunate events? How Snickety.
Well, the sun is out, the air is freezing, and I have CHURCH to do.
Peace,
Ken
