Oh my goodness, our life was taken over by Lego! This year, both boys were on the Lego team for First Lego League. It seemed like our younger son was already on the team last year since he was at all the meetings, but this year it was official. Once again, they advanced to state [...]

I hear rain. I’m going to take advantage of good sleeping conditions and go to bed now. I haven’t gone to bed this early in a long time. #
@webboy I was able to get to it without any problem via Mediacom. #

Little guy and I are having our own camp-in while Daddy and Brother are at their camp out. Can I convince him my comfy bed is a tent? # My intrepid campers have returned. In one piece and without frostbite. I guess it was a successful outing. #
I’ve been rockin’ the knitting needles lately. Which means nothing else is getting done (besides school). We all suffer for my ‘art’. # Trying to get dh and older son ready for a campout tonight. We don’t camp and are clueless what to have them take. And it’s gonna be COOOLD. # I just installed [...]
My mom’s in the hospital for the 3rd time in a month. Dehydration again this time, plus she’s getting disoriented. She’ll go home tomorrow. #
