Week 2, Day 7

The T's are in their room right now, playing w/ their Little People stuff.  They have all kinds of fun w/ that, making up stories, etc.

K has been on the computer for a while.  They've all been doing word searches & C wanted a crossword puzzle.  We found one on USA Today's website that we could actually print, so she's working on it now.  I printed off the answers so we'd have a clue if she was right or not.

They're also having a Stargate: SG1 marathon as well.  The T's are back up in their room (hopefully cleaning, most likely playing) & using their imaginations, I'm sure.

I'll be working on crossword puzzles tonight for all the kids.  I'll do one for K & C & a separate one for the T's.  I just need to come up w/ clues & answers.  I sit down at the computer to make one & totally draw a blank.  (HERE is the website to make your own...)  I think I'll do basic vocab to start.

K, C, & I watched a special on Hurricane Katrina online a little earlier.  I found it really interesting; of course, I'm very far removed from the situation.  However, what I found extremely annoying is.... how in the world does the Gulf oil spill have anything even remotely to do w/ Katrina?  Yes, I understand it's the same area & it affects the same people & their livelihoods, but it HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH KATRINA!  If you want to post about the hurricane, fine.  Do that.  If you want to post about the Gulf oil spill, fine.  Do that.  Don't confuse the two.  K & C didn't understand that either.  (I'm just kind of surprised they didn't blame Bush for all of it again.)

Don't mind me much...  Out of the last 4 nights, I've slept one... partially.  I'm overly tired & overly emotional, so everything bugs me.

It's lunchtime, so I'll see if anything else happens afterwards.
