Just before noon on a Monday morning, los kiddos are enjoying C.O.R. lunch. C.O.R. is my mom’s anacronym for Clean Out Refrigerator. We have chicken noodle soup, stir-fry, and ham-bean soup to choose from. Since it’s in the mid-50’s, the hot soup is getting lots of votes.
#1 and #2 are done with their schoolwork, except #2 is strenuously avoiding her math. #3 has a reading and a science quiz. The laundry is 1 load of 3 finished.
I don’t even feel guilty about missing whatever appointment we were supposed to keep at 11:30 this morning. I wrote “dentist” on the calendar, but when I called their office to confirm, they said they didn’t have a record of it. I tried the orthodontist’s number immediately afterward, but there was no answer after 20 rings. Since the appointment was for #1, who has a small cavity and a retainer, neither condition is an emergency anyway. Nope, neither office called Friday to confirm, so I’m guessing the whole appointment thing was just a dream on my part. See? No guilt.
Los kiddos cheerfully helped save our rep with the neighbors by getting the LOUD rooster into the coop after he had some breakfast in the back yard.
A Netflix video is due this afternoon: Volume 1 of “Jacob’s Ladder”, a lighthearted series of pre-teen-targeted Bible history and application. Angie, I recommend it for your family, BTW…
Dinner is taco salad, I’m further ahead in my American Lit prep work, and when AmLit is finished, I can turn off “teacher brain” until Thursday morning.
Nice!

YAY for soup! YAY for cold weather so we can enjoy soup! Chili here, as half the county seems to be showing up around supper time.
