What's been going on?

Not too much.  We tie dyed and I have been online purchasing some wool and snappies while the small stash I have slowly dwindles.  I have been repairing diapers, also, since some of them are falling apart literally!  Pictures will come later when my camera and batteries meet again.  They (the batteries)  are charging now.

I has been working on the circulatory system and we have big plans for Earth day starting with a using our pickle jars to make a terrarium.  Mr Allen is going to help :)

Where is time going?

I end up at the end of the day before it seems to have begun!  Today is a busy day and I am hoping productive.  I am trying to sell some of my cloth diapers here:

 small/ nb / onesize stash of cloth diapers

The lsiting itself is not finished AND I had to do it over a period of days since I have collected so much cloth!

Another day down

Today was a rather laid back day with A playing sims and me printing stuff for my F to do.  The best part of the day was probably home ec--we made macaroni and cheese from scratch and the kids got to see what REAL mac and cheese is sooooooo much better.  Now to download some pictures :)

I have been busy in the world or work/play with the hsing kids.  A is busy learning the US and lots of fun projects have left the house for school, too.  As usual, the camera either could not be found or did not have batteries but I did find this paste recipe that I thought was super!  enjoy :)  Today A and I  are using it to glue the United States to oak tag and make a state puzzle.

Homemade Paste

1/2 cup flour

cold water

Add cold water to flour until a thick cream forms. Simmer on stove for 5 minutes. Add food coloring or flavoring if desired.  ( The food coloring was an all around BAD IDEA.)

Hey, diddle, diddle . . .

F traced the letter F today and did a 1-5 workbook.  L and F colored pictures and learned the nursery rhyme heigh, diddle, diddle, ..... and we learned that Jack and Jill ran up the hill (thus also the need for paste that ended up being used as paint.)

50 states and so little time......

T made this great picture that was a definitive keeper:  well I guess I NEED TO find a new site since this one is at its limit for uploading photos and I have just started it.

no upload makes me very sad

On another note, I have great fear about the world we are living in.  The Middle East is a wreck and I wonder how much more involved our country is going to make itself.  I wouldn't (very selfishly) want my children harmed by the world any more than they have been.  Should unrest escalate on our soil I fear our already overtaxed government and military would be unable to quell it.
