Young Oldie: July 2013
http://youngoldie.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
I write stuff, I read stuff, I manage my kid's diabetes and my kids' education, and I pray a lot. Friday, July 12, 2013. Fruit Pouches and Summer Update. Yes Yes, I've sold out for a pouch of cherry/yogurt/sweet corn and a tube of compressed wipes. Not really. My grocery store sends out little "Try-It" kits to its members, and you get the chance to try some neat new things for free. The kids really liked the Banana Blueberry pouch (not so thrilled about the sweet corn one). So my suggestion for the compr...

Young Oldie: March 2013
http://youngoldie.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
I write stuff, I read stuff, I manage my kid's diabetes and my kids' education, and I pray a lot. Monday, March 18, 2013. Or possibly your Tuesday, since I'm posting this so late. But, of course, most of all thank You, Lord. By the grace of God we wound up coming home through Battle Mountain, which meant that we were able to stop in the eensy weensy little town of Austin NV and buy brake fluid, which we just kept putting in until we got home. Now, I don't want you to go buy silver or gold, or stuff all y...

Young Oldie: First Day of School, Doubts, and Fixing Advanced Christian Education
http://youngoldie.blogspot.com/2013/08/first-day-of-school-doubts-and-fixing.html
I write stuff, I read stuff, I manage my kid's diabetes and my kids' education, and I pray a lot. Monday, August 5, 2013. First Day of School, Doubts, and Fixing Advanced Christian Education. First of all, pictures. I know you want them. Here we are doing our workbooks (more about that anon). Seatwork done for the day, we do a little passive learning of German with Muzzy. Which degenerates into people stealing my phone and taking pictures of a bottle of syrup. 1 Many, many rote drill exercises. I am actu...

I write stuff, I read stuff, I manage my kid's diabetes and my kids' education, and I pray a lot. Tuesday, July 31, 2012. Tact; or, You Used Up All The Glue On Purpose. Here is the scene I am referencing, in case you are among the 0.00002% of the population who hasn't seen snippets of this movie when movie channels run it continuously at Christmas time. And also, this post has been brewing in my head for a while. I'll try to be brief, but I think it's overreaching. Unregulated, most people would (and do)...

Young Oldie: June 2014

This is rapidly becoming a family tradition- every spring, we get a diagnosis. (I am okay with stopping that tradition after this year, though.). First, the man himself:. Which, by the way, is our new diagnosis: celiac disease. Celiac disease occurs when the immune system freaks out (told you) and decides that gluten, which is a p...

Bud had an endocrinologist appointment last week and came through with flying colors; his insulin dose has been dropped to 3.5 units per day, and hopefully we can hold steady through the summer. Praise God. Miss Boo had her last soccer game AND a pizza party AND got a Good Sport medal. It was a high point.

Young Oldie: January 2013

I write stuff, I read stuff, I manage my kid's diabetes and my kids' education, and I pray a lot. Thursday, January 24, 2013. Is The Danger Out There? Is my favorite M. Night Shayamalan movie. If you haven't seen it, I'm going to spoil it for you. It's a lovely song, isn't it, when he finally takes her hand? Actually, I think it makes better watching after you already know the twist. But, as the movie goes on, we find out that evil- a murderer- is within. I think the theme of the movie is that evil isn't...

Just so you know, posting videos to Blogger takes forever. I do this because I love you. It's not fair trying to sing while the babies keep trying to make you laugh. Links to this post. Tuesday, November 27, 2012. I confess, I may have something to do with liking cute pictures too. I'll ask the Husband about it. Break for a quote from Buddy:.

Young Oldie: August 2013

I write stuff, I read stuff, I manage my kid's diabetes and my kids' education, and I pray a lot. Thursday, August 29, 2013. Update, and Miss Boo's Version of History. First of all, you all must have been praying for us. Last Sunday went so much better- we went to church, people said hi to us, and in general God was good. Thank you so much. (Don't stop! The First Sumerian Dictator". God Speaks to Abraham". Joseph Goes to Egypt". Joseph told them: "live in Egypt! Shamshi-Adad, King of the Whole World".

Young Oldie: December 2012

I write stuff, I read stuff, I manage my kid's diabetes and my kids' education, and I pray a lot. Sunday, December 30, 2012. The End and the Beginning. We've undecorated here, and Miss Boo is asking when it's New Year's. (On New Year's, she has figured out, people drink fizzy things. She wants her Martinelli's.). Links to this post. Friday, December 14, 2012. Praying for Newton, Conn. He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High. Abides under the shadow of the Almighty. And from the deadly pestilence.
