sickness
Well everyone in my house has finally been hit. Hit by the bugs. we all have colds, fevers, or vomiting. but considering this is the first time all winter that we have gotten sick I consider us pretty lucky and thank God for it. This brings me to my question I thought I would ask and that is when you get sick what are your home remedies or do you go to dr. We let our bodies do what they are supposed to do and we eventually get over it. we might go the chiropractor if it keeps hanging on but we try to stay off antibiotics if we can. I am trying to give us more vitamin c, and garlic to fight off the colds.

Homeschooling
Well it seems like homeschooling is going well. I just spent a month making sure that my kids had their math facts down. and while they still need a little more work they are waaayyy better than they used to be. I have 5 kids that I homeschool and 3 learned multiplication facts and I was only going to do one more with addition facts but the youngest wanted to join in also so was learning and usually quicker with the response than her older brother. Kind of funny! There is 2 and a half years between those two.
We are going to do a carnivorous plant study complete with planting some seeds and seeing how they grow. the problem is that some of the plants will not fully mature for 3-5 years. ugh. I was hoping they could help with my summer flies this year. oh well.
My stepson is graduating this spring so I am trying to plan a graduation party for someone who does not care what he eats, where it is, when it is, or anything else that has to go with the planning. Why can't he just give some opinions.
and then I am trying to talk my husbadn into a vacation before the field work begins. I wonder if we are going to get one. the last time we had one was four years ago.
we are still trying to spruce up the house. and it is slowly getting done. I am trying to sand the kitchen cabinets so I can revarnish them. no stain this time, as I think my kitchen cabinets and trim is too dark for my liking. I also want all new hardware but I doubt I will get it even though some of it I need just to make the cabinets close and what is in there is hard to find.
Well post comments and let me know what is going on in your neck of the woods.
