at 6:15 in the morning my little wobbling bobbling alarm clock did it's thing and woke me up. For it's trouble, I smacked it. It gave me a measly 4 minutes of slumber.Irritated beyond belief I smacked my clock again and rolled over settled my feet on the floor and stumbled over to the window. … Continue reading back at it…

anxiety
nerves.funny things.You never know what's going to set them off.I realized a couple of days ago that K's school is starting in 2 1/2 weeks. That's plenty of time to do nothing and mess around, but to get all her back to school shopping done, buy school supplies, get her back on her sleeping schedule … Continue reading anxiety
from the mouths of babes…
or maybe from the mouths, noses, hands and eyes of babes...Do all of you know what kindergarten really is? It's some kind of test lab for breeding colds, flus and other assorted cruds.

K is five now so her concerns have become more adult, more real, more life experience related. With kindergarten coming at her in a scant 6 months she's turned her mind to math and educational devices. What kind of educational devices you may wonder? Workbooks? Calculators? Flash cards? An Abacus?No. Too simple. Too linear. Too … Continue reading fun with math…

life really seems to jump down your throat when you aren't expecting it. I've had years to come to grips with what will happen in the coming months and yet this morning I sit marveling at all that has come in time. Good stuff mind you... I'm thinking good thoughts.
