Glowing
Thank heaven I felt much better today! In fact I don’t think I took any medicine at all. I’m not sure, because my brain is still pretty foggy about, well, everything, but I don’t have any specific memory of having to resort to drugs today.
I did go out shopping this morning to get a few school supplies and also of course the all-important glow sticks. By the time I returned, Lucy’s friend Taylor was here and then after lunch, I took the two girls and Spencer to the monthly teenage social event for our homeschool group.
AJ and his cousin Jonnie stopped by to say goodbye before heading out for spring break. I sent a signed copy of my memoir with Jonnie for his dad, who was at Sakeji with me all the way through.
But the big news of course was the third attempt at glow jars! After supper tonight I got out the glow sticks and Jasper picked his color (purple) and since the sticks were the really little ones we dumped four of them in the jar. Success at last! Jasper was thrilled! There were many trips to the bathroom (the only windowless room in the house) to admire the lovely purple glow. Lucy made a green one. Two happy kids now!
Quote of the Day:
Jasper: “I’m sorry if my demented laugh kind of scares you.”
