Thanks Behan for the photo link. Don't know if I'd be standing so close to the edge.

Good luck moving, Bodhi. Hopefully you'll have quieter neighbors.

Picked kids up from school and am pondering what to make for dinner. I cleaned the bathroom. That's about it on my list of things to do. MLD, I'll bet you felt awesome after cleaning the carpet.

OK, good news. The state tests scores from 550-850, with 700 required to progress. Only 40% of state kids pass the first time. Son got a 691. Teacher said she was so disappointed as he was so close, and the rest who failed really failed. Additionally the school tested reading this week and son jumped from a 2.5 last semester (where 3.0 was the standard) to 3.6 this semester (where 3.5 is the standard), so with his new glasses and yellow overlay, he seems to be making huge progress. Very relieved mommy here!!

Speaking of guiltless, I have just polished off a bowl of mixed berries, a large scoop of dairy free ice cream, smothered in Canadian maple syrup.

Behan 02-12-2016 02:36 PM

OMG lunar! That vid was scary!!

MLD51 02-12-2016 02:59 PM

I'm terrified of heights. I lasted about 10 seconds into it.

MLD51 02-12-2016 03:00 PM

And now I want lobster. When the inheritance comes through I'm going to order live Maine lobsters to have shipped to the house. I did that once many moons ago and they were soooooo good.

Well my living room carpet is clean. Dining room tomorrow. Great way to distract myself and get a sense of accomplishment!

Soberwolf 02-12-2016 03:03 PM

Jsbodhi 02-12-2016 03:15 PM

Agreed SW.

Jsbodhi 02-12-2016 03:17 PM

Lunars video was making me uncomfortable too!

Jsbodhi 02-12-2016 03:24 PM

Omg. I'm still in bed- good thing I have all weekend to move.
I'll just work really hard tomorrow.....
Its just grey, cold and snowing!! I don 't want to get up!!

brynn 02-12-2016 03:27 PM

I can't see the video. Just as well. The only thing about heights I don't like is I'm afraid I'll be tempted to jump. And I don't mean that in a 'I'm suicidal' way at all....it's just a weird urge or something! Am I the only one?? If so, please pretend you never read this post and carry on!! :)

I save so much money being a vegetarian lol! All the money I'd spend on lobster I get to spend on shoes!! Yay!

brynn 02-12-2016 03:29 PM

never mind...the video did pop up but I refuse to press the arrow!!

Brynn! That's how I met my best friend!
I was standing on a high ledge looking over the edge about 18 years ago, on a school trip, she was new there and came up beside me and asked "aren't you afraid you'll just jump for no reason?"
I agreed!

Behan 02-12-2016 03:58 PM

Lol Brynn!!!

Right, gonna get some shut eye. Just got a flurry of self critical negative thoughts. Hopefully they will be gone by the morning. See you good folk tomorrow.
