Okay, so Max recently got a very mild case of fleas. So we got him a flea collar, and we thought they had gone away, but we were wrong; because the night before the night before last, I found one in my bed. Two, actually. And then I itched the rest of the night. And then I found one on me the next day. So yesterday we vaccuumed everything, washed all my blankets, and flea-combed the rats (no fleas; thank goodness!) while Owen worried about whether the rats would give us the plague. That's my bro. :-P
There are no more fleas now. (thank goodness!)
In other news, I was trying to get onto my blog earlier through my dad's computer, and I logged on with her username, so when I tried to log onto blogger it brought me her old blog instead. HUGE, CONCENTRATED BURST OF NOSTALGIA!!!!
You see, mom started that blog in 2006 and stopped writing on it in 2010, so everything on there is from at least 2 years ago. It's fun to see our different perspectives on certain events. For instance, she wrote about the day we made duct taped swords 5 or 6 years ago, and I wrapped red duct tape down mine "Like a candy cane". Um... no. That was supposed to be blood dripping down the sword. Did you really think I was that cute and innocent?
And some things happened a lot longer ago than I think they did. For instance, when mom opened up her old camera and said, "Hey, there's film in here!" And dad said, "You say that every time you open it."?
That feels like yesterday, it really does.
Also, random bit of trivia: It's been six years (as of november 29th) since mom gave in and let me draw on the walls of my room. Since then, (sometime early this year) I actually washed all the graffiti off. After five years. End of an era, huh?
Also, people who know me will know that I like to quote things out of the blue. Well this is my first (recorded) quote:
"The Philippines are a group of islands off the coast of south east Asia."
Betcha didn't see that one coming, did you?
Anyway, if you know us and want to take a trip down memory lane, (or if you just want something to read) Read this; http://randomhomeschooler.blogspot.com
It's fun!
