Seems like forever ago!

It feels like I have not been here in weeks, when the reality is I was here a few days ago. So much has happened in the few days...

School is still going great! I love that we are right where I want us to be, as far as number of days go. The girls are still learning and still loving it. Of course it would be nice if Jesse would not rub it in at taekwondo that she gets to do schoolwork while still in her pj's. Poor Zack was just annoyed with her last night. LOL Of course, they were just picking on each other.

Jesse did argue with me today that when writing H20, the 2 should go above the H not as a subscript. I think she was confusing "squaring" a number from her math, with science. Luckily, we have several science encyclopedias and a science dictionary. She quickly found out her Mother was correct...again. ;)

The play is going well. Last night Chloe finally made it up on "Maurice's" back without him falling. :)  Funny how Belle has no problem with Chloe jumping on her. {snicker} Jesse has practice tonight; and I'll have a van full. I am taking four other children with me, so it should be a fun ride over! So long as I do not forget to get them! lol

Dad is having his first blood transfusion today. Mom called about noon to let me know things were going well, but it really is an all day process. His appointment was at 7:45am and the transfusion did not start until 11am. Each unit of blood takes two hours and he is getting two units. Long day for Dad! Mom said they have him in a bad chair. If you recall, Dad has osteoporosis and his vertebrae have been collapsing. Sitting all day without getting up is going to be difficult for him to say the least, especially in a "bad" chair. But she said he was doing well then. I'll hear more later.

John has had a crazy week at work. He has been at Troop Command all week doing USRs. I forget what it stands for, but I think it is the promotion list. Though I could be wrong. He was also asked this week if he wanted to go to Afghanistan. He told me, even if he wanted to go, he didn't think he would be allowed to since no one else knows how to do his job. So being gone for a year would probably be out of the question.

As you can see, life has been full this week. Maybe that is why it feels like I have not been here in awhile. Like the commercial says, Life comes at ya fast. Yep, enjoy every second of it.
