Tuesday's Entropy

It is SOOO Gorgeous today! I decided we should do lots of outdoors stuff today, so we may not get all the ‘inside school’ stuff done. (online research, ALEKS, etc).
I finished my new round of mini-greenhouses. Had to get all the tops taped on them today. Ki and I transplanted a couple Sunflower Starts that were ‘greenhouse germinated’. Connor & Gavin did some dismantling of wooden structures so I can see if I can make a plant stand thingy from it.
The boys took turns reading from Story of the World (topic: Robin Hood) and then read a few sections in the Critical Thinking Book. I think Ki will be dropping the class. Sorry Deb. It’s just not working with the way he thinks and learns. But I think I will see what I can do with him along the lines of the lessons. And I see that I will have to teach him better how to change a ‘reading/oral’ lesson into a hands on, drawn examples, moved manipulatives lesson on his own- so he can survive college.

We walked to the library. I helped the boys look up their research subjects so they could find their books. Ki looked up a couple books for his own enjoyments. We walked home. I had taken Benedryl before the walk (itchiness) and fell into a coma-like state when I got home. Slept like a corpse for about 2.5 hours.

I forgot how drugged I get from Benadryl. It totally ruined the rest of my day. I will feel like a wet cotton ball for the rest of the day.
Ki will have to do his math without me.

At least it was a good morning and I felt accomplished in the AM.

Hi Kaber,
I found a blog today and saw your comment on it, what a surprise! I didn't think the world was that small!

The blog is called Home schooled aspergers and the woman is trying to find children to contact her boy. I think my son would like to do this but I can't get onto her site. Would you go on to her site and tell her I would like to make contact please?

My son's blog is

if she would like to check it out.

Hope all is well with you and your family.

take care
