Hello, friends of the frost! This is Mean Ol' Mama posting for us all. The boys have their cousins over right now, so I don't want to interrupt their game. We've had a dragging week, full of dragons and drama. The boys had their final band concert Monday night, they have one more concert to play that doesn't involve the parents, they'll be finished with guitar next Wednesday, and we're looking forward to a change of pace and plans. We haven't done much in the books this week, although Latin and Greek both are back on the list for next week! Woo-hoo!!! We have been entertaining their two cousins (a full-time job), catching up on strange bits and pieces around the house, and getting our heads back on straight. I have some ideas that I believe will make things work even more smoothly around here. I'll let you know how that goes.

We have potatoes now in full measure, and they're creamy and delicious. The blueberries are full but not quite ripe. My brain is full, too, but not quite ripe either. Please don't give up on us down here! We're trying to wrap up May and their many classes, so this coming week will find us back in the saddle again and aiming for a strong start in June.
