I admit it, I've been a lazy bum since K got back. He hasn't been called in for any flights, so we're getting some intensive Family Time this month. I hope it makes up a little for the No-Dad days on the girls' birthdays, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Eve.
I haven't felt very well and haven't been eating much lately. Nothing smells, looks, sounds or tastes good! I spent the worst three days of it just reading Eragon on the couch. I also finished East, a retelling of an old Norwegian folk tale about a girl, a polar bear and some trolls. They're young-adult books I checked out from the library to read at the same time T reads them. I'm not sure about letting her read the ugly war stories in Eragon, but she's been able to process (slightly) similar stuff in the HP series and in the LOTR movies. My girls also get into Star Wars and have their own rendition of "LUKE.... I AM YOUR FAH-THUH."
R is making the occasional three-word sentence. It started last week with "DON'T DOO DAT!" He's slowly picking up on some beginning-sounds as well.
LittleK is reading, reading, reading! We love it.
The Busy Schedule Season is here: we had Movie Night at the school last night, we leave in about half an hour for the Girl Scouts Gymnastics Night, tomorrow we head to Anchorage to visit my Gramma Nuz at Mom & John's house, K's taking the girls to Alyeska for a ski-day tomorrow or Monday, I have a homebuyers' seminar next week, doctor appointments, and another bookorder to process next Thursday. There are too many things actually to mention right now and my brain is full.
We've got some prospects in the house-search. The loan we were pre-approved for will provide us with a house about the size of most of our family's and friends' garages.
Get sick, and the dream changes a bit.
