Green Planet

I have found another website to tell you about!  This site helps kids (and their parents) learn all about being eco-friendly in lots of different ways. :)


It's called Green Planet 4 Kids or EcoFamilyOnline and even I'm learning some neat little tips to start using. :)


Take some time soon to visit and learn a little yourself!

Day 4 - Candlelight Clue

Day 4 got off to a stormy start!  A few tornadoes, several inches of rain, winds in every direction, some flooding, some power outages, lots of trees down, and assorted damages all around.  Finally around 1:00 a.m. we could all sleep for a few hours!


The storms actually began in the middle of day 3 and continued in spells of a few hours at a time ~ wearing us all out!


One of the things we did to keep the kids' minds off of the fearsome show outside ~ after securing all our pets in various cages near us ~ was to play game after game of Clue by candlelight!  Sure made for a lot of laughs as these old eyes missed seeing the board and the clues on it many times!


Today, with many errands and much clean-up to be done, yet we still managed to keep up with some of what was on the agenda.  I didn't get as much done as my kids but I will have more time tomorrow.  Maybe by then my phones will be working too!  ;-)  (Charter says they are aware of the problem and working on it - no estimate of when it will be fixed.)
