Well, tax season is finally over. But that doesn't mean we are done.
I might be doing a few days over the next week or two. I really did enjoy it though and will miss it.  Thank you Susan.
On the other hand, I bet Piper is going to be really happy to have me home during the days, for a little while. I have to find another job. I will go stir crazy sitting around at home lol
Piper is eating like crazy and all moms and dads know what that means. Especially since she does not eat much to begin with. Her dad told me last night that she eats almost a whole box of Kraft Dinner to herself. I told him that is way too much. Ah well, what do you do....   She has been cleaning her room all by herself the last few days, I am so proud of her, as this has been an ongoing problem. She once spent over 4 hours in her room, playing by herself,  when she was told she could not come out until it was clean.
Xander starts swimming tomorrow. Out here it is part of the school curriculum, I don't renember if it was a part of it out in Ontario. But he is extremely excited and will not let anyone forget that it is on Tuesday, and he has to bring his swimsuit. We have to remind him about the towel lol I am really glad to see his enthusiasm for school is far from dead.
Thomas is doing ok. He is off grounding for a bit; we shall see how long it lasts. He has a field trip today, which Blayne signed his permission form over a week ago for and tucked it into his agenda. Blayne received an email on Friday from Thomas' teacher looking for that permission form, so he sent a return email, letting her know that it was signed and sent back, but when we asked Thomas its whereabouts, he told us in his agenda--in his locker. Blayne told the teacher in the email that it was her choice to keep Thomas back from the field trip. We shall see if he goes. The real funny part is that Thomas asked if he could take his DS to school today, so that if he was not allowed to go on the trip, he would be able to play. Well, the game did not go to school.
We picked up a Humane Society volunteer form this weekend, at the local trade show. Thomas is extremely passionate about it. He began filling out the form without even reading the information attached. Then he actually slept with it beside his pillow because I told him to put it somewhere he would not forget about it until we could look at it. He wants to volunteer with the cats, he explained to me as kind of a redemption for when he was little and would be too rough with them.
I have been working my butt off on my math again. I have to call my teacher today, because I have a problem I just don't understand. I could just submit my answer the way it is and give some explanations. My marker would probably explain it to me in her reply. But I want to make sure I am understanding so that when it comes time to wright the exam, I have a chance of getting it right. I have a deadline in sight now for completing the two math courses, so I am in a bit of a panic. But I only have two chapters left in this course. Damn, that means I could be wrighting an exam in three weeks. More panic!!  And it will be all worth it, in the end....
Well, that about does it, so I hope this is enough for a certain individual. Not to name any names, Lori lol I will talk to you again soon, but for now you are caught up. Love you guys xoxoxox
Later days....
