I am under strict orders to prove my still-livingness.  So here you are.  I am alive!

But now I have, alas, forgotten the list of Cool Stuff I was hoarding in my brain to post here... 

One thing though - I learned it tonight.  Not Going to Daycare is not necessarily a bad thing.  So says the mother of two that we are staying with tonight.
Her children are, their teachers say, calmer and more attentive, less 'me me me get it or else', as well as better behaved.  On the other hand, they aren't quite so proficient at ignoring distractions. Child A was not finishing his work properly - the room was too noisy, it seems.  So he does it at home with no troubles: here, it is quiet.

The rest of my list will have to wait until I can remember it.

Book of the Week:
(ok, ok, TWO!)

*My Friend Flicka - which, believe it or not, I have never read - but is set in Wyoming!  By Laramie!
*Full Cupboard of Life - I love these books.  And there's a new one out - I need to go and read it, instantly.
