Satisfying Saturday

My recovery is going well. I have started eating regular food again although the right side of my jaw still hurts and I have to chew very carefully. I was so tired of soft food. So far I've had salmon, smashed potatoes, a pb & banana sandwich, and then shredded bbq chicken, sauteed summer squash, new potatoes & green beans. So, not bad.

I've signed us up at http://www.spellingcity.com/ to work on our spelling. Each kid will have a spelling list and they can work through learning the words on the list by playing various games. It is free and we are looking forward to playing there...and learning.

We've decided to give the kids a chance at earning an allowance again. They will have chores to do each week in order to earn their allowance. We've tried this before without success and there are guidelines that they must follow or they forfeit their money that week. We shall see how it goes.

Today, I took Morgan up to the Maury County Arts Guild to audition for the upcoming TAG production, Schoolhouse Rock Live! We should find out tomorrow if she made it or not. She is fine either way. She was the youngest to audition but did great!

Tonight after dinner the kids and I made homemade peach cobbler with farm fresh peaches from our CSA. Oh my...the yummy goodness! It was easy and delicious and we can't wait to make some with more peaches...or another fruit from the farm.
