Everything I think of to write about seems uninteresting to others.  So I'm going to take requests.

This is all I have thought about writing in the last couple of days:

– the travails of planning my next school year

– summer dinners (see, I told you, boring)

– light co-schooling in the summer

– ideas for eating less, but nonzero, meat

– what it was like to fill out my first questionnaire after enrolling in the National Weight Control Registry as a research subject

– more, probably boring, thoughts on _Introduction to the Devout Life_ (St. Francis de Sales)

– what's in the family camping kitchen box

– on trying to practice detachment this week by allowing myself cheerfully to be interrupted by the children

Pick one, or ask me a question.  Otherwise, I'm pretty writer's blocky.  Will check back in after tea time.

  1. Summer suppers are interesting, especially with the “less meat” angle.
    Also, I am not a homeschooler, but am fascinated by how people put together curricula for their kids, so I’d read about that too.

  3. Ooh, ooh, I wanna know what you guys eat for dinner when it’s stiflingly hot.
    And I’ve been waiting for more from you on Frances de Sales.
    So those are my votes!

  5. I’d be interested in summer dinners and what it was like to fill out your first questionnaire in the National Weight Control Registry. The idea of being a research subject is right up there with being on a jury, fascinating!

    I’d love to hear your thoughts on Introduction to the Devout Life. I got it down off my bookshelf with the idea of reading along. I enjoy your analysis of things.

  8. I’m curious to hear your thoughts about plastic surgery after weightloss…specifically, if you are as tempted to get a tummy tuck as I am.

  9. I’m late, but I was just wondering yesterday how Latin has been going for you now that you’re a couple of years in. What books do you use, are you teaching it okay with no experience with the language, do the kids like it, etc.

  10. Yow! That’s what I get for asking for requests: requests. I will work my way through these over the next few days!
