Homework Blues and Volunteering while Chatting with Coffee: Random Tuesday Thoughts Rebel

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. I would never have the patience to homeschool either of my kids. I am a huge admirer for those that can do it, but I know that homeschooling would be my downfall. First we have Princess Nagger – the gifted/accelerated learner who is way ahead of…

Parent/Teacher Conference Week; Million Dollar Photo; Cool Factor; and Changes with Coffee – RTT

Tuesday is always the best day to release any brain jumbles that Monday created after a weekend so you can get through the rest of the week unscathed.

Heyyyyy! We had a little bit of rain last night! Woot! Of course it didn’t last long, and the ground didn’t get saturated, but I’ll take what I can get! So much for it raining all the time here…not! I’m totally unprepared with random this week – my brain is blank (c’mon now, you know…

Mountain Camping Fun with a Defective Tent and Princess Nagger’s Getting Braces: RTT Rebel

We’re still holding strong on no rain here in the Seattle area. It looked like it was thinking about raining late yesterday, but no such luck. We went camping over the weekend in spite of the burn ban – campfires are overrated, right? Well, OK, maybe not, but we decided that even if we couldn’t…

Blah Blah Blah Shopping and Summertime Fun – Chatting with Coffee in an RTT Rebel kinda way

The crazy weather all over (very hot and very dry here, in spite of the Pacific Northwest’s penchant for rain) is only proof positive that Mother Nature is on something, or going through menopause. Or both. It’s also the beginning of week 2 of the kids’ summer break – is it time for school to…
