Still Afraid of Thinking

Information overload anyone?  Phew! But I think my group members and I have more of a handle on what we are doing for our theory lesson/products.  Thank goodness because until tonight I felt like we were flappin' in the breeze. 

It's 7pm and I've mentally checked out of class for the evening.  I feel like looking at beautiful landscapes to the tune of soothing music, like I need to level out my brain waves or something.  I went through a "new age" phase in my twenties; I know what it's all about--ear candling, chanting, etc.  There's merit to that lifestyle (still not sold on ear candling though;  no one has that much ear wax!), however it takes too much time.  But I digress.                                                       
Today was report card day for my kids.  My 9 year old got straight A's (of course) and my 6 year old got a mess of dots, pluses, and checks.  The Kindergarten report card is massive.  All I care about is that my child, after 1.5 years of kindergarten, still can't read.  I think he's capable, he's just not interested.  And my goodness, if you believe what this site says, you might as well check yourself and your child into a mental facility for intense therapy.  One, because there's something terrible wrong with him and two, because I've failed as a parent.

I've obtain access to Pottermore..! (more to come on that).

  1. Our parent report card always score low when we're doing the grading...stay upbeat (like always). Good job last night; we got a lot accomplished. I couldn't sleep because so much was in my brain. Maybe I need that ear wax thing. Ew.
