Hi, my name is...................

Loryn and I am a bookaholic. Some of you know this, some of you don't care. I am the one you see reading at red lights. My book is always somewhere within arms reach. I have a panic attack if I am almost out of book.

Even homeschooling 3 hooligans, I manage to read about a book a day.

Today was a *lost* day. The book I was reading was so good that I actually did dishes with the book open on the counter. Same for drying hair, etc.

Now I am bumming because I am done with it and I know the next book I will start just won't quite measure up.......................

The Color of Law by Mark Gimenez. I would suggest that anyone looking to *lose* a day pick this one up.

Wednesdays...........

Wednesdays are when my wonderful hs group meets. I truly do mean the wonderful part.

We have a local church that lets us use there basement/play area in the winter.

It takes a day or two to decompress after 4 hours of the joyful sounds of happy kids in an area with really bad accoustics. Seriously, I can still hear all of them.

I also have to bring 3 of them home with me, geez, can't get a break.

Winter has barely begun and I am already seriously looking forward to park days!

Still lacking a spreadsheet.

However, Chris did manage to get home early enough for me to get some Hanukah shopping done. The kids still believe in the Hanukah Fairy, so it makes it a bit hard. I think I got about 3/4 of the way done. How's that for power shopping?

I guess I won't have to dump my kids on the hs group tomorrow after all;)

Pooey on Cyber Monday!

I had really hoped that I would have oodles of order from my Amazon storefront today. Not only did I have no orders, I had to rip out about half a skein from my Dad's scarf.

Note to self: do not crochet while seriously involved in a movie.

Poor hubby does not have a day off until December 3rd. Hanukah starts on the night of the 4th. I still have to shop. This so sucks!

WARNING: I might have to abandon them at HS group. (To sneak out and shop). Guess I won't see Renee or Christine this week:)

Edgar Allen Poe Day

My head has been thumping along all day. I keep waiting for the raven to land.

I watched a couple of girls from homeschool group for several hours this morning. It looked like my living room had thrown up. Worse than usual even. (I did not even realize that was possible!) They became amazingly deaf when asked to clean up before they left. S declared herself "Mom's Maid" and did clear through most of the mess.

Thump, thump.

I would endorse some wonderful headache curing treatment, but since I have not found it yet today, thump, thump.

My morning was saved last night when the neighbor let us know they would be gone for the next 5 days. Yep, I asked for her milk! No manners here. Just cereal with milk.
