Today has been lovely, quiet, sunny, easy dinner tonight, and I've been working away on my list. On the flip side I started resenting the list, resenting having to work hard. What does that say about me? Lazy, I guess. Things are getting done, but don't worry I still have plenty to do. A whole lifetime of work.
Ally has prepared one more hard geography quiz for today. For next week I've given her a challenge to write a geography quiz geared toward our favorite seven year old, with questions to answer while looking at a map. So if you have a favorite seven year old check back next Monday and we'll see how Ally does. Our seven year old cheered, because normally she can't answer any questions, and it is fun to know some answers.
