Quick Check-in list of Ten

1. Still here. 
2. Super busy prepping for school. 
3. Today is housework catch- up and errands.
4. My mom has had complications from eye surgery. Please keep her and my dad in your prayers.
5. I was asked to consider teaching sixth grade math. I replied with "the absolute value of no. "
6. My computer programming son said that an absolute value changes a negative to a positive, which is not what I meant. "Absolutely no" is what  I meant to say cleverly since I had to say no. Absolute no does not equal the absolute value of no, which confounds me. Further confirmation that I should not teach math. 
7. My second son, of whom I spoke in number 6, gets a last hooray at the beach this weekend. I am jealous. Absolutely. 
8. We had no vacation this summer. I am bummed.
9. My oldest son and DIL hosted birthday dinner for me earlier this week. That was special.
10. It is hard for me to tell I even got my hair cut six days ago. 

I hope to get a chance to blog more thoroughly this weekend. I will have to lift my head out of the art history of the 1500's first.
