Done Today

Just to clarify what Sarah has done so far today:
- 1 math lesson
- made a birthday card, addressed and sent it
- babysat 2 little kids at Mom's exercise class
- washed the barn for almost an hour
- practiced her piano lesson for almost an hour
- watched 3 Magic School Bus science videos
- ate 3 meals and cleaned up after one of them
- ran the dogs 3 or 4 times
- sorted clothes, folded and put away her own, cleaned her room

So now you know what "nothing" means (see post below)! Still in the plan - reading a book about Virginia.

Gotta go practice for Praise Team. Praise the Lord!

interview with Sarah

me: so, what do you want to say?
Sarah: *sighs* *laughs*
me: what have you been up to lately?
Sarah: I haven't done anything today.
me: what did you want to do today?
Sarah: I wanted to go to the bank.
me: why did you want to do that?
Sarah: I wanted to put money in the bank.
me: oh
Sarah: *laughs*
me: what was the best thing you did this week?
Sarah: went to Iowa to see our friends....
me: oh
me: this is a really boring interview
Mom: this is a really boring blog
me: Sarah, would you like to add a last comment?
Sarah: you are weird
me: take it back
Sarah: um, okay

This is to prove the point of elder siblings domination.
Thank you and good day.

The secret is out

okay, so now everyone in our family knows about the blog. This translates into more blog posts-hopefully. And now all we need are readers who are interested in what is written on this blog. Good luck on that

the Stadems enter the 21st century

Well, we've done it. We have a blog. And that's about the most interesting thing going on right now, except for the fact that David, Joel and Daniel are at a youth convention, Michelle just passed a CLEP test, Sarah and Philip are playing "jinx", Andrew is reading, Kari is sleeping and Pete is working. And it's raining buckets. Other than that... I'm hungry, so over and out!
