Unschooling going well

[Amanda Mendenhall]

I have to say that I am most pleased with how unschooling is going. The boys love it and I can see them growing in many ways. It does seem like we are on break. But not all at the same time.

This week I started watching my new nephew. He is 4 weeks old. I feel so bad for his mommy, I so wish she could of stayed home longer. Emily has taken to him good. She plays the little mommy. Tries to feed him, hold him. She even played peek a boo with him. It is so cute. She yells at me if I don't let her "help" that goes for with baby or house work. She loves helping set table, load and unload dishwasher and laundry. I love it. Wish the boys were more that way....buy...oh well.

Sleep round here has been impossible. I have gotten bout 3 hours in the last two days. Between Emily and being sick. I am quit upset with Doctor office. I called yesterday and was told I would get a call back..well..not as of yet. I am pretty sure I have a kidney infection and possible pnoamnia. I have to use an inhaler ever 4 four hours even at night. I can't stop coughing, can't breath. In pain for a month now! I should of got in sooner but with our money situation I tried to hold out on hopes that it would go a way on its own...guess not. Now my doctor won't call back. So frustrating!

We are under a blizzard warning. Suppose to get 12 to 16 in. of snow.  I am so excited! But the wind is 20 to 40+ miles an hour so...probably have to stay inside for now. I wish hubby was home. I worry about him having to drive. While it seems every business around here has closed...except his work!

Any how, not doing well so going to go and lay on the couch, maybe I can catch a little sleep while the kids play. Montana stayed home today with his mommy even though she works with my hubby but she didn't want to take a 4 week baby out in this. I begged hubby to stay home...but...he is a big boy and was dying to drive in this. Crazy man that he is. He is from Iowa so this is very exciting for him.

Just hope we don't lose power although that creates some great or not so great memories!!!
