winter's getting long

It's pouring icy rain tonight, rained all day.


There's been little snow to play in, and now mud.

So we're stuck in the house, trying not to crack up.  Sometimes we do a few errands to break up the monotony.   We watch The Price is Right and work on math.   There's been plenty of time for reading and any projects anyone cares to do.



An alternative teacher was very welcome.


And we try to keep her out of trouble.

Aww, the buddies:

This is Kirsten's cold puppy after her bath.  She hid under the pillow shivering.


And back to math.  These are their Sponge Bob workbooks, cost a dollar each.  Sponge Bob is so weird, being a fry cook under the sea and all.


Here's under the table--

Oh my gosh she was annoyed here.  She wants any electronic gadget she sees.  She takes calls on all of them, puts the TV remote up to her ear, "Hello?"   We were in the store last week and someone's phone rang and she put her hand over her ear, "Hello?"

Right here I was chirping at her coaxing her to smile.  No. She wanted to take calls on the camera.

Maaaad.  Honey, honey, here, fine. Take it.

But she cheered up after she manhandled the camera a little.


Back to the recyclables--

And trying on shoes--



And today was James' last day of basketball and he was really happy.   That's dragged on too.  

We're so glad to see March.   Maybe I'll buy a crocus tomorrow. It might help.  

love, Val
