• Currently Michael Jackson - Video Greatest Hits - HIStory By Michael DeLorenzo, Simon Fields, Traci Guns, Iman, Michael Jackson see related

  The living room floor is packed, literally, with dogs, shoes, and children.  I feel claustophobic but it's raining so the dogs don't want to go outside.  It isn't a large living room (we have a small house) and it looks especially cluttered this morning.

  Rainy Fourth of Julys suck.

  I have reached my threshold of whining for a month. 

  Nobody knows where any of Seryozha's spoons are.

  Alex and Holden agree that the video for "Thriller" is, as Holden puts it, "A little bit scary."  All three boys have spent the week working on Michael Jackson dance moves (well, Sergei mostly just bounces up and down).

  Before it started raining I did manage to start a load of diapers, fold a couple of loads of laundry that had been getting progressively more wrinkled in the clean laundry basket, fed the birds in the chicken coop, and put out hay in the goat pasture.  I waved at the cows, way down in their pasture (Roselle condescendingly swished her tail in response) and saw Mama Hen with her chicks.  Anthony fed the pigs.  I gave Sergei a bath after a particularly frightening diaper.

  According to the UPS website Holden's Right Start Math is in Nebraska with a scheduled delivery date of Tuesday.  I can't wait until it gets here.

  I got my netbook! It is so little bitty, the size of a paperback novel.  It fits right in my purse.  I'm still getting used to the size of the keyboard (the semicolon/colon key and the apostrophe/quotation mark key are the size of fingernails) but I really like it.  Way more portable than even  a standard sized laptop.
