Want a life? Don't have kids

Kids are such a pain.  Seriously.  And that homework and those projects their teachers assign them?  They might as well be assigning homework to the parents.  

i have my own homework to do, thank you very much

This weekend was spent helping my stepdaughter with her school project on family traditions.  She was adamant on her choice of "celebrating birthdays" and on wanting to sew, rather than draw. Overall, it turned out alright, and we sewed/glued together a nice quilt square for her classroom traditions quilt.  

And as if that wasn't enough of an art project for the weekend, my son changed his mind on what he wanted to be for Halloween.  We cut some holes and splattered some blood and threw together a zombie costume.

I also adjusted the injury clock.  I had let it go, and I felt bad for letting it lie to you.  40 days without an injury?  Ha.  Only if I stayed out of the kitchen for 40 days.
