Stickman Tournament - Part One

What do you think?

Link or Ironman?
Kirby or Riku?
Cloud or Kevin?

I am not taking bets, but here is the opening match:

Round 1: Ironman vs Link

Winner: Link

Round 2 to follow.

Drama Island - Our Style

Today began with Taylor requiring a bucket at both business ends of the child. She was very sick most of the morning dozing off on the couch and running and bowing to the porcelain god.



That was six hours ago. Now she is bouncing off the walls looking for something to do that girls with the flu can do. She is lamenting about having to miss Tail Waggers and demanding that I make her siblings play with her.



Good thing this flu is short lived. When does the "24 hour keep them away from others" protocol begin, with the first trip to the bathroom or the last? She will be going to softball practice and Bible study tomorrow night.

Pondering...

I have a question.

I applied for a job at Menard's to stock shelves bright and early in the morning on Mondays through Fridays. It seemed like a good fit to me. A little extra money, employee discount on roofing materials, and the hours won't mess with my kid's summer sporting schedules. I get that I may not be what they were looking for and didn't see the great fit that I did, but shouldn't they at least have the common courtesy to return my phone call and/or reject me in writing?

I hear this voice in my head whispering, "Hey, Deb! The 80's called... They want your expectation for courtesy back."

To a bonfire we will go, To a bonfire we will go...

Hi everybody. It's Azure. If you live here the weather's great, nice and warm. You know what I love about Fridays? You can stay up late and sleep in on Saturday. (Unless you've got something shaking.) We're going to our friend's house today for a bonfire, s'mores, and the crowd favorite game; run-away-from-whoever-is-on-the-four-wheeler. It's going to be wicked fun! We still have to do math before we go. If you haven't read my last post, we are a homeschooling family and proud of it. Please remind me to tell you what we did. To do that just leave a comment. Over and out. ;) LOL
