Random 5



1. I am not on Facebook. The only time I really know anything that is going on there is if one of the kids shows me something. A big reason I am not on there is because of the stupidity of grown adults. Sometimes it truly astonishes me. The thing I am most amused by is when an individual posts some hurtful post directed at someone else (sometimes even their own family member), accusing that person of being something. But when you read it, it exactly describes the person posting it. Hilarious! There are some mean, unhappy people in the world ... and it's always somebody else's fault. Pull up your panties and be responsible for your own actions, people!

2. I have successfully been on my Keto diet and GRAIN FREE for two weeks now. I am continually learning all about this way of life and feeling great! The most welcome benefit is how well I am sleeping at night and the high level of energy I have all day.

3. I am so ready for fall weather! I have some cute fall clothes and new boots that I want to wear!!

4. Have you heard that Dr. Ben Carson has been rising in the polls and in some (even Iowa!!) he is tied with Donald Trump? That is very exciting news for our country. Let God and common sense prevail!

5. What are you doing this Labor Day weekend? We have NO PLANS! I'm going to lounge around, get caught up on some Keto cooking, do my lesson plans for next week, and hopefully watch some movies, read, and take some naps. Sounds good to me!!! Have a great weekend!

  1. Can I admit I've looked for you on f/b? ha ha...
    You are smart not to hassle with it... admittedly. =)

Cells ~ It's What's for Dinner

Dawson made edible cells on Friday. He made an animal cell pizza ... and a plant cell chocolate chip cookie ... He reviewed what he's learned about cells the past two weeks, and I had dinner made by someone else. Win, win!! I am linking up at Science Sunday at Adventures in Mommydom.

A New Year, the Same Me

Happy 2019! It is that day of the year where everybody is up extra early starting their new exercise routine, eating only healthy foods, cracking open the pages of a new planner and Bible study, and debuting their Word for the year. You chuckle or roll your eyes, but you are doing at least three of these things. By the way, so am I. So let's start with the Word of the Year. Mine this year is Lagom. It's the Swedish word for "not too little, not too much, just right". It's a concept of being, doing or having just enough. So let's rewind to last New Year's Day. My Word was Might. And that's how I planned to tackle my year. And, I did. I worked out hard, I mommed hard, I traveled hard, I worked hard. And it was a good season. It prepared the way for this year. I accepted the Challenge I set for myself and succeeded. But, I don't need to keep up that pace. I am at a place in my life where I can kind of sit back and enjoy my life without f...

Science Sunday ~ Hmmm ... Let Me Think About It!

This week in our study of the Human Body , Brynne moved on to the Nervous System . Our first stop was a Pamela Hill Nettleton book called, Think, Think, Think: Learning About Your Brain . As part of our discussions about the brain , and the fact that it's the BOSS of the body, we discussed the importance of the spinal cord . We did a hands on spinal cord project by alternating gummy Life Savers and wagon wheel pasta on a pipe cleaner. We talked about why there was the "squishy" stuff in between the vertebra and how the back can bend and sway because of it. We completed "The Brynne" by adding the stomach, small intestine and large intestine, from our study last week of the Digestive System (although I just realized I have the large intestine coming out of the stomach, when the small intestine should be) and the brain and spinal cord. We are now done talking about the parts of the body and will conclude our study of the Human Body with a two-day unit ...
