It’s Friday again! Funny how it keeps happening every seven days. . .
1. Wild Man has had his palate expander in for a couple of weeks now and there’s a big gap between his two front teeth – almost like when he was a toddler!
2. The kids have been doing a good job of picking up the slack in the housework with PWM at the shop so much and me either at the shop or having a migraine. I don’t have chore charts for them anymore, but they have been doing what I ask (usually one big task per day) without complaining (much).
3. Public schools started this week. Both kids have eighth hour classes. Rosie Girl is in Art 3 which meets every day. Wild Man is in 7th and 8th grade band which meets on Tuesday, Thursday, and every other Friday.
4. I’m loving that Rosie Girl can drive. She can run up to the store to pick something up when we need it. I had a terrible migraine on Wednesday, so she went to pick up our CSA veggies so PWM could stay in the shop.
5. Rosie Girl has been spending a lot more time practicing guitar these days and she’s glad that I'll give her school credit if she documents it. My favorite is when she plays and sings “Into The West” from The Lord Of The Rings. So beautiful.
6. Wild Man has been playing bass guitar lately. He plays drums or percussion in the church combined youth band, but he plays bass guitar when he plays in the middle school church youth band (which really needs a name). He and Rosie Girl have even started doing some playing together with her on acoustic guitar and him on bass guitar.
7. A huge storm came through this morning and I didn’t even wake up. A lot of areas around here lost power, but ours only flickered a couple of times. Since I use a CPAP machine, the kids called and asked PWM if they should wake me up if the power goes out. He agreed that they should. Really, though, I’m betting that I would wake up if my machine quit working. But, I’m glad they thought of it.
