  • And the doctor said....

    I am now allowed to jump and swim, as long as I wear the brace. Otherwise, I am allowed to take it off. Peoples, this is a great day. Ryan is a nice cousin. He gave the babies Skittles and the other kids Sprees. "For he…
  • Ryan's plane is coming in at seven/seven-thirty. English, math, history, played kickball, began a new book. (As Michelle once remarked, "Points for conciseness, no?")
  • We went over to the Frichs yesterday so Mama could help Miss Becky caulk and we kids hang out together. I went swimming (yes!! Milestone! ) and we girls played a game. Savannah gave Christie an adorable teacup and saucer…
  • Christie's birthday was yesterday, and the excellent kid decided to go to the New Orleans Public Library. Lots of old books, lots of good books, came off with nine books for me and who knows how many for the rest of us! …
  • I got my cast off, which was (I found out) technically a splint because it didn't go all the way around my arm. Dr. Krieger gave me a smaller splint which only reaches halfway down my arm. I can go swimming if I don't ge…
  • Happy Birthday, Sambug!

    The little rascal is five. For those who are interested, Avonlea (the town Anne of Green Gsbles grew up in) really exists.
  • I need a profile pic, and have neither the time, energy, nor pic with which to get it. Ignore my siblings contradictory sttatements. Take it from me, we invalids have it hard.
  • Today, it has been five years since 9/11. Nonetheless, I can think of nothing to say about it. I therefore merely observe the date quietly and as sadly as is possible for me. Christie has been badgering me to work on my…
  • Melissa, Daddy, and Molly were the only ones deemed well enough to go to church. The rest of us invalids must stay at home and recruit our much-abused strength. Poor Mama doesn't feel well. She couldn't eat her raisin …
  • The Roy kids are all down. A mysterious virus prevents them from keeping anything down, with painful results. Molly went first, Wednesday. From her, it went to Sam and rapidly to the rest of us last night. Yours truly di…
  • You scored as Cat. You are a cat. You are very playful and are good at bringing people up when they are down. You have a temper but are very good at not showing it. Cat 100% Dog …
  • The lyrics to Pirates of Penzance are worth googling after watching that wonderful, absurd, grand movie! Pirates. (very loud) With cat-like tread,Upon our prey we steal;In silence dread,Our cautious way we f…
  • Math, reading books, struggling through Les Mes (half the time, Hugo writes about something very informative and entirely irrelevant!!) writing, conquering the world with Age of Empires 2, and finally, managing to peel a…
  • Christie and Melissa hosted a beautiful tea party today. Christie made devil's food cupcakes, PB&J and cucumber sandwiches (Sis actually did the latter) Sis bought strawberry tarts, and sliced kiwi. It was delicious.…
