Two of them opted not to participate in fall sports (slacking is an inherited trait). Which means I have one kid in peewee soccer, three in CCD, one in Girl Scouts. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, I have no official obligations other than to get them on and off the bus. Also, their bus stop is at the end of our driveway. If I shift three feet to my left right now, I can see it. Slacker Virgo is still a slacker.Deliahttp://delia-moran.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5318625078248654911.post-43213193007495997482011-09-27T08:58:45.254-04:002011-09-27T08:58:45.254-04:00In reverse order:

She's more mellow now, so we think she may have been Scared Straight.<br /><br />@Julie: I didn't think of it as whining. I thought your concern was very sweet! My mom rest moments are here in front of the computer. So, you see how that worked out last week! Also, I occasionally lie down now when overwhelmed by exhaustion. Which is why I went to the doctor, because I am unaccustomed to feeling exhausted. It bites to have limited energy.<br /><br />@June: We're making your pot pie recipe, which is the only one I like! Yum. We might follow it up with your meatloaf, with the very-Bettyish bacon topping. Double yum.<br /><br />@Skye: Yay, Skye is here! I'm not so much "gentle" as pragmatic. We've tried excessive force and it yields no better results. I do go back to it every so often, just to double check my data.<br /><br />@Delia: You have a giant family (which is different than a family of giants), so why aren't you as crazy as me? I mean, you finish books and everything! I think it's because you're a Virgo. Even slacker Virgos have mad skillz.<br /><br />@Karen: I don't mind admitting that I've hit the box of Mallomars more than once.Megan Coakleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13422558504606256516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5318625078248654911.post-38316369461082184832011-09-27T00:02:11.388-04:002011-09-27T00:02:11.388-04:00Of course I felt the love!!

I spent half the evening watching ball games with the Captain while he folded laundry, which is a past time that I love a lot. And it was great to spend time with your large, handsome family.<br /><br />As June mentioned, we are happy to get whatever posts you decide to write. But - if I might make a request - I'm interested in hearing about Miss Cobie's stint in the Big House. The Pen. Stir. What have you.<br /><br />I just hope she didn't come back all tatted up. That would be a shame.Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12464208061753089593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5318625078248654911.post-91034035798195299572011-09-26T19:24:01.621-04:002011-09-26T19:24:01.621-04:00Oh how we missed you!!!

I think I speak for everyone when I say, if you have time to write it, we are more than happy to read it. I am jealous about chicken pot pie. It is a personal favorite.<br /><br />@Skye - I agree about The Captain.

Well, if I had a partner like the Captain, and the fortitude of you, maybe it would have been doable. I think you are totally awesome! I personally think you are quite gentle with them all, given the circumstances. :)<br /><br />Glad you're back. I missed you during my time away, too.Skyehttp://thingsintheskye.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5318625078248654911.post-10548967475509446172011-09-26T08:16:46.039-04:002011-09-26T08:16:46.039-04:00What Karen said.

Laughed my butt off at, <i>"...I told Three to shove those suckers back in his mouth, no matter how much it hurt."</i> Because I would have done the same thing. Followed by a threat to make him pay for it if I had to buy a new one. Glad you're back. :)Deliahttp://delia-moran.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5318625078248654911.post-79467366985364870292011-09-26T07:43:00.186-04:002011-09-26T07:43:00.186-04:00Well, yeah, we did miss you and are glad you'r...Well, yeah, we did miss you and are glad you're back.
