Running Behind and Backwards

My camera would have picked the worse time to die, and the charger is nowhere to be found. I had taken some pictures, and needed to take some more, that's when I realized the battery was dead. I went to charge it only to find the charger is not where I believed it was.

The baby is always on the lookout for school work. It would seem that while she learned the math skills that we didn't learn until the fourth grade or so in Kindergarten she is missing the stepping stones that got us there. Of course I don't remember these things called ten frames at all.

Well, I'm off to finish working backwards and behind since I have lost half a day of work. There is some housekeeping in the schedule today which has been long neglected. 

OK the baby is in need of some supervision right now.

C is for Calm

It's been so long that I'm not sure what it is anymore but I think I'm beginning to find calm. It is the feeling that allows you to find contentment in the smallest things. It does not have to be something major, it can be something as simple as a gentle breeze. There are a number of things that have a calming effect; I look forward to being able to do them. What are they? I'll tell you in no particular order. Walking on the beach. Drinking a beer by a bonfire. Sitting in front of a fireplace. Reading a book. Spending time alone just thinking or writing just to write. Calm is a nice feeling, and one that has been missed the last few years. Slowly it is returning that is why C is for calm.

Flash in the Pan Playing Along Still

The pages were bent and ragged from years of use, covers worn out from hands rubbing over them. There were bowls everywhere, the oven was still hot. She tasted it again, something wasn’t right. It was sweet, tangy but not right. What was missing? She scanned the room again to see. Onions maybe? No, but what could it be? She hit her head on the cabinet. A pepper that was it!
