Pathetic
It makes me sad and angry that articles like this www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/06/30/oklahoma-republicans-read_n_223074.html are all most people are ever going to know about Oklahoma. The state is so much more than it's bigoted politicians. It's hard these days to be proud to be an Oklahoman.

Vacation
Two days of vacation under my belt and I've managed to make a dent in the kitchen and the living room. A very small dent in the living room but a dent nonetheless.
I've also taken time just to be lazy. Sleeping in until 8 is quite nice. I've read a few comics. Finished a book and am hoping to finish another before summer session starts.
This weekend I look forward to major thinning. I'm hoping we can get enough of it done that I can mainly focus on packing up the kids for their Oklahoma trip and cleaning.

Last Day of School
Well, I'm out of school for the next week and a half. The kids are out of school until September. Yay for them! I'll go back July 6th to work half days during the summer session at Shorecrest High School.
It's sad to be breaking up the Fircrest group. Several folks aren't coming back next year and more will be at Shorecrest with former Fircrest students when the regular school year begins. Everyone promises to stay in touch but I know how life gets in the way of that.
I've requested to stay at the Fircrest school. We'll see how that goes. I'm hopeful that the Fircrest contingent at Shorecrest can come by for visits with the kids.
In the meantime I've got a week and a half to thin E's house and pack up the kids for their month-long visit to Oklahoma. Then I'll be back at it with my student at Shorecrest for the summer session. I hope he likes the change and doesn't give me too much trouble.

Almost There
I'm in the home stretch. This is the last week of the school year. Actually it won't even be a full week. We're out of there on Wednesday. Then I get about a week and a half off before the summer session begins. The kids will be having fun in Oklahoma the month of July so it seemed like a good idea to earn a little extra money.
My three days this week consist of half days with the kids. The other half we're cleaning and sorting and organizing. It's odd for the kids to come to school and be gone before lunch. My normal routine with my student had to be changed. So far he's taken it well. Knock wood for smooth sailing the rest of the week.

Stupid Head
I'm out-of-sorts today. I don't know if it's because I slept like absolute crap last night or because I'm trying to get sick. Maybe it's because today has been a day of doing nothing. Well, nothing productive anyway. In the morning we went to Carkeek Park for a Rainbow Families event. Then we came home for a few hours.
After doing this update we're off to a Summer Solstice party. I should mention during the few hours we were home I tried to nap...and had a helluva time shutting my brain off. Napping in the middle of the day is hard for me unless I'm sick. Just as I was really getting into my nap, the phone rang. Good. Groggy and out-of-sorts.
Fortunately a piece of fudge, some goldfish and doing this update have cleared my head. Tonight I'm going to do my darndest to get good sleep.

Typical Saturday
Another day of chores for us although light ones. E's "moon cycle" (as one of the kids at school calls it) is making her feel like crud today. We did some easy yard work in the morning and now she's resting in the comfy green chair reading.
I also went to a local bookstore to pick up Mike's Father's Day gifts from the kids. I chose a book of fun things to do with kids in the Seattle area and the new David Sedaris book he's been wanting.
Our bathrooms have been cleaned and the way too ripe bananas have been turned into banana muffins. We need to take a few things to Goodwill but I may save that for Sunday. Being a slug sounds good to me right now.
