Hello you guys! I seem to have forgotten how to blog with everything going on around here. I'm sure I'm not the only one. Hope you all are coping okay?
Last week Things finally got to some semblance of a routine this week and I've been finally feeling better and in charge of my emotional faculties. I've taken over one of the upstairs bedrooms and set it up as my office-cum-homeschool room. In other words, the room is a big mess, but both my daughter and I are able to navigate the room fine as everything in the room has a meaning in our own brains. We're both very organized that way. I've been using a sit-stand desk for my work laptop and I'm a little glad that I got to try this system finally. When I'm not working, I'm helping the girl with her letters, numbers, or fun activities. Trust me, this is difficult but we worked through the system this week, and think we have it under control. My father-in-law watches my son during the day as the little ma…

Sunday so far is going well. Reading Sunday Salon posts as always and hopefully a little reading this afternoon. Not going anywhere here because we're having subzero temperatures and wind chills. Don't have to go anywhere until tomorrow afternoon.
Have fun visiting your friends :)
I do remember being pregnant though and the rampant ups and downs. I cried over everything. And if I saw a Hallmark commercial, it was just a snot fest. :-)
I tend to over-analyze too. It's both a help and a hindrance, isn't it? I remember some of the feelings I had during my pregnancy--little things would set me off crying and then I would burst out laughing about it at the same time because I knew it was so silly to be crying over such trivial things. My husband thought it was the funniest thing.
I hope you have a great week!
May I suggest Richard Peck's A Year Down Yonder and A Long Way from
Chicago for some amusing, well-written, quick reading? They're written
for middle-schoolers but adults will definitely enjoy them. Although
tied together in a story arch, each chapter in the books is a
stand-alone short story.
