Birds in the wilderness

My dad used to sing this goofy song he learned in Scouts. I found this old lady singing it on youtube. LOL!

That is what we are...birds in the wilderness...with R gone to Korea. :-(

Why is R in S. Korea? He started a new job working on HPC's all over the place. I never thought he would take a traveling job but he was not happy where he was so this is what came of that.

The time sure is dragging...especially with R so far away, because time is dependant on how close I am to him.

It is C's birthday. I took him to Denny's (Nanna and cousin P came along too) and then Walmart to pick out a present and "cake"...he picked a Wii game and brownies. He really wanted a bakugan cake with a toy on it but instead I bought the toy and cheesecake frosting brownies that he wanted.

Why isn't he in school on a Friday you ask?

Technically he is. He and I are doing homeschool...well really an online public charter school using K12 curriculum. I never actually thought I would do homeschool but it worked out that way with my sis-in-law recommending it, and things not going so hot in the local public school. I love knowing and being involved in C's learning although it takes a lot of my energy just to get him to do it. That is the only frustrating part.

I've done my Wii fitness (yoga, strength training, aerobics) for the last 4 days in a row...I do it after the kids are in bed. I hope to make it habit. Cheer me on!
