I have a literal pain in the neck today. I pinched something that is making it hard to move much less function well. I’m hoping it will stretch out by tomorrow. At the moment it is pretty tight and uncomfortable. So I’m going to keep this just a bit short and quick!
I’ve got a shipment coming or at least I hope it is coming for our next unit in Science. I ordered it almost three full weeks ago if not four. Why it is taking so very long to process I’m not sure but it is a bit of a pain. Mostly because I’m having to alter our course for not a few days but for a few weeks. The boys don’t care but it messes with my organization in my head. I’m still working on the whole organizing our homeschooling OUTSIDE of my head. It is a work in progress that’s for certain.
Harley the wonder dog is being a pain in my butt. Or more precisely a pain in my trashcan! Why or why must that dog shred tissues? Ewww! And Yuck! Thank goodness he hasn’t figured out that the fluffy, white sheets of fun come by the box full and that we have them all over our house!
All in all given that I was somewhat immobile today we had a good day. Piano was practiced. Math was done. History was talked about and we took care of a few small cleaning projects around the house. And even though I had my literal pain in the neck I felt good at getting the house a little more straightened. Rights my world a bit. Well provided I ignore the chaos that is in the schoolroom behind me. We just won’t talk about that today…mmm kay.

Grace in Small Things #50
1. a little boy that is big enough to help mama mix up breakfast when her neck really hurts
2. pulling supper out of the freezer and having it be yummy to boot
3. jr.’s story about a frog and a fox. And the amazing way a boy can turn 5 sentences into animal carnage. “And the fox ate the frog up!”
4. digging through all the papers and miscellaneous junk to find the top of my kitchen table
5. putting another box in my pile to got OUT of the house when it thaws.
**bonus grace** not having that many visitors in the winter which allows me to stack up the boxes in front of the front door!




Ouch! I hope it eases soon!
Love the stories that kids make up. Maybe the fox was craving frog legs?
