The card reader, that is. When I downloaded the pictures, I discovered that Asher has been playing with my camera. Here are some of his photos.

Roxy watching the outside. My garden looks pretty good. I had no Roxy ever did this -

School is almost finished, which delights me almost as much as the kids. I like the lack of routine and absence of homework.
Today was Boo’s end-of-year celebration for kindergarten. When Maya and Asher were there, they had big organized picnics where the kids sang songs and got little diplomas. This year, they just took the [...]

Sorry I’ve been ignoring y’all. Did you notice I was gone?
No comas this time, I just haven’t had much to say, really.
Also, I can’t find my card reader to download my pictures. I have a great one of my stupid dog in his stupid dog collar cone because he can’t leave well enough alone. He [...]

It’s 5 pm and I haven’t a clue what to feed the kids for dinner.
The incessantly stormy weather has given me an incessant headache. Worse, Asher is complaining of a headache centered behind his left eye, so it appears I’ve passed on my migraines to him (mine are on the right side, though). (The kid [...]

In my family, we pretty much ignore Father’s and Mother’s Day. My parents view it as a Hallmark holiday and don’t take it seriously, so I don’t either. My kids make cards or cute little presents in school but that’s it. So I’d forgotten it is Father’s Day until I read Postsecrets. For those who aren’t [...]

About a month ago, I joined what has clearly become a North American world-wide stampede towards metal water bottles. Unable to find anywhere in Ottawa that sold them, I went online. Being in Canada made it more of a challenge, but I managed to find a place to order the bottles. That place was Online [...]

So, how’s it going with you?
Now much going on around here. The weather is nice, the hubby is working a lot, the kids are excited about the end of school fast approaching and I’m a blob. Same old, same old. I managed this:
I used to bring up the wet laundry up in bags, making several [...]

We had Maya’s birthday this weekend. It seems the older she gets, the longer her birthday lasts. This one was about 24 hours. It’s still easier, though. The kids are largely civilized and can amuse themselves.
Two of her friends came over Saturday afternoon, played around and then we took them to dinner at an atrocious [...]

Well. It got hot, didn’t it?
I’d mind more if I were up to doing anything, which I am not.
When I was in the hospital, my improvement was fairly steady. Very early on after I awoke, there were some scary moments, such as when they discovered a new infection and wanted me on more antibiotics, thereby increasing my [...]

You guys were saved, not me. I was going to subject you to all kinds of whining and me feeling sorry for myself, but instead I’ll do this meme that Yogamum posted, and all because I’m wearing pink underwear.
The rules:
1. Post the rules of the game at the beginning.
2. Each player answers the questions about [...]
