Love and Legos
Feb. 8, 2006
Today
is going fairly well. Eric just came home from fixing Bebe and
Scott's (from church) computer. He gave them a 50% discount,
which I think worked out well both for us and for the Williamses.
I wonder if someone is spreading the news around church that we're in
need of money, because this is two jobs in two weeks. An awful
lot of people (three, but still...) in church mentioned needing
computer work this past Sunday.
Eric
was saying he has a really hard time discussing money. Especially
with people he knows. No trouble spending it! But trouble
asking for it. I wonder why that is. I think I'm the same
way.
While
he was gone, the rest of us finished the day's readalouds. Joey
has the sniffles, so I sprayed Zicam in his mouth. The look on
his face was priceless. 
Breakfast
was oatmeal and, later, toast with butter and honey/jelly/both.
Eric missed breakfast, as he was running out the door to the Williamses
house.
Lunch
was leftover Fish and Rice plus a chicken sandwich (me, and I shouldn't
have eaten so much) and leftover burgers (Eric) and the boys just
weren't hungry yet. They did have some homemade banana ice cream
that Eric made last night from a Good Eats episode. Bananas are
healthy, right? 
I
did talk to Stefan about his rotten attitude of late. His
constant complaining every time I ask something of him has to
stop. I told him that his sinful attitude is affecting the entire
family, and I hope he'll rethink things. It's hard to know how
much of it is the bipolar and how much is plain sinfulness, so I try to
attack it from both fronts. Nobody ever said parenting was
easy.
