We got President’s Day off yesterday. I stayed home to work on some projects and got to watch the kids do their homeschool, something I rarely get to do. It was amazing. I think they might have procrastinated a little less than usual, but they did a stellar job of getting things done. We are well caught up on all of our homeschool now and moving towards the two-thirds mark for the year. Pretty soon it is going to be time to start thinking about research reports. I am worried about one thing, though. I have tried to introduce the kids to the classics: The Beach Boys, Simon and Garfunkel, Chris Kristofferson, etc. Yesterday, I caught Christian listening to this while he was doing his homework.
On Sunday, we invited some of new friends from Guatemala. We spent the whole afternoon with them and enjoyed ourselves immensely. Lorena cooked up some tacos, rice, and black beans and the Guatemalans brought a pie and a cake, so we all ate ourselves silly. It was just a super nice time. We took some pictures that Christian is going to send me later this morning. As soon as they get here, I will post one or two.
The bad news is that I fell off the diet wagon big-time. Check the graph. Blien-baby, are you ever going to learn how to update that thing? You need to come out here for a lesson! You spend so much time on a Mac you forget how to use a REAL computer!
Check this out. It has a bunch of pictures of the amount of different types of food that make up 200 calories. Very interesting. H.T. World Mag Blog.
Ken!! I’m updating the spreadsheet that you gave me access to, clicking publish, as you instructed… nothing happens. Anyways… I’m under 230 now… so since 1/30 I have lost 20 lbs.
OUCH!!! I updated it. I cannot figure out why it does not take. Why don’t you just pop me a note or post here every day and I will update! Congrats. If I do not lose a limb, it looks like you are on your way to winning a dinner. You are the Barak Obama of diet contests. Maybe YOU ought to have the blue line.
I’d rather vote for blue blooded McCain then be blue! I’ll be the Huckabee of diet contests! Did you see how much weight he lost? http://www.mikehuckabee.com
I know about Huckabee. Amazing guy. We need to be like him and sign up for a 10K race!
