Crazy Weather

Ok, I've tried to work on a post twice and the power keeps shutting off. We have a high wind advisory. So at this point I don't know if it will post or not.

Had a fab time at McTalking. Just getting creamed on this bible study. Read one page and ker-smack. I'll have to post more on that one later.

I do think I sunk to a whole new low. You know you're a homeschooling mom when you will take your child's lack of hygiene to use as a teaching moment.

J and I were working on his math when I noticed he had some serious ear wax going on. I grabbed a Q-tip and went to town. I thought I had it all but when I looked again a huge hunk of it was hanging out of his ear.

Gross, gross and double gross. (I was telling Kerri this story and I thought she was going to hurl.)

So I got this huge ball of wax out of his ear. And I mean huge. Covered most of my fingertip. He said that felt better while I'm wondering how he was even able to hear.

What is a homeschooling mom to do? Why I grabbed the microscope, squished that bad boy on a slide and we all had a look. Was actually surprised to see the cell structure. M and N went on and on that they just studied something about cells in biology and they got all excited and was telling me about it.

I didn't have the nerve to tell them I had no clue what they were talking about but I still think I deserve major kudos for taking this gross moment and learning something new.

Like supervise J a bit more closely on his ear cleaning skills.

Lights just flickered so I'm hopping off.
