I kept waiting for the punchline when you mentioned your kids love chore charts. What did you do when they were young to instill that?! <BR/>Your weather sounds glorious (sorry, I know I'm not living in it). Here we're already reaching triple digits and it's only going to get worse. I kind of get a little depressed every year at this time as I realize we're now stuck inside for the next 4 or 5 months.<BR/>Sounds like you guys are having a lot of fun together and I'm so impressed with all your purging and selling things on ebay!Megan O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00527149458931466636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18299306.post-90159795084167875542008-06-06T22:05:00.000-06:002008-06-06T22:05:00.000-06:00I had to giggle at your "gag" moments.

I would think about slitting my wrists if I could get up the energy to get to the kitchen. <BR/><BR/>Seriously. This weather. Has.got.to.improve. <BR/><BR/>Sorry about the crocs "issue". I remember Chick Fil A in Denver and occasionally here, but I think they've pulled out of Seattle because I can't find one. I used to love the Little Golden Books the kids would get in there salt-fat-and-sugar laden kids meals. Good times. <BR/><BR/>The other day I was speaking to folks at a party and kids menus came up in conversation. It seems many of them eschew the idea of nuggets and macaroni. I however, live for those moments. The table is quiet and happy, and Big and I get to chat unimpeded with "eeewwww I hate that". If I want that, I can just cook. :)<BR/><BR/>Rambling all the way to nowhere, I must be off...xxxooogretchenGretchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02576409086020993015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18299306.post-87626062280716885302008-06-06T09:36:00.000-06:002008-06-06T09:36:00.000-06:00I wish I had words of comfort for you, but I can o...I wish I had words of comfort for you, but I can only commiserate.<BR/><BR/>The sun was last seen in these parts on Sunday -- that's five days ago, for those keeping count -- and we have rain and clouds in the forecast for the next 7 days.

I'm starting to panic. <BR/><BR/>And please tell me this isn't normal for a Colorado summer -- or at least tell me you've already had many warm, sunny days -- or I'm not sure I can move there.

She has been a great teacher and I have enjoyed working with her.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad you liked the bird post. We ended up only having one little bird that survived and now he's literally flown the coop. It sure did impact me, though. <BR/><BR/>By the way, we will be out of town this weekend, but I will email you sometime on our decision to homeschool. Long story, but the bottom line is that we just feel God's leading in that direction for our family at this time. We are really excited.<BR/><BR/>Have a good (and warmer) weekend!<BR/><BR/>~StaceyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18299306.post-54448497161767338682008-06-05T20:31:00.000-06:002008-06-05T20:31:00.000-06:00love these thinking aloud posts!about the weather:...love these thinking aloud posts!<BR/><BR/>about the weather: you feel now how we will feel in October when we are sweating at the Fall Festival and HS football games.Leah Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03420217459486312117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18299306.post-29894893479395165482008-06-05T20:24:00.000-06:002008-06-05T20:24:00.000-06:00It is about 84 degrees IN my house right now.

I don't want to turn the air on just yet but I was gone ALL day and it's boiling now! <BR/><BR/>LOVE Chick-Fil-A...we don't have them in MI but when we vacation, (in just 2 more weeks)I'll be there. I haven't been to a sonic but I hear we just got one not too far from my house so maybe one will come closer too! We did McDonald's play place today too!
