Slow blogging

Something very unique has happened.  I'm completely caught up in the blog time line and I'm also in quarantine, allowing me ample time to stay caught up in the blog time line.  So, for the first time in a long time, I have to slow down on my posts.  I decided I'm just going to make them much shorter so I can post more often.  Are you SO EXCITED to hear SO MUCH about our quarantine life?

Elliott saw a YouTube video about Fairy Bread- white sandwich bread spread with butter and doused with sprinkles- and he had been begging me to make it for him ever since. 

What's better than bread, butter and sprinkles for breakfast for a growing boy?  I used whole wheat bread though, because we don't have white bread, and gave him extra sprinkles to make it extra hearty. 

His honest opinion was that he has never had that many sprinkles in one meal before, and it wasn't a great idea.  

Elliott finished reading the first Harry Potter that day, so we decided to make it a fun themed movie night that night. 

First we put on our shirts.  Then we sorted ourselves into houses with our very own Sorting Hat.  

And then we ate dinner and had drinks in our house mugs while we watched the movie.  It's a good thing we have all of these supplies from Spencer's 11th birthday party. 

I wore my Hogwarts bow too!  I had enough hair to wear it!

I did that FB challenge to post your senior class photos.  Might as well share them here too.

I put on a wig to do a video IEP that morning, and then Elliott asked if he could also wear one of my wigs to do his work. 

He lasted about 30 minutes in it, actually.  

I had learned that the newest front window challenge was to paint a rainbow, so I added one to Paddington and Corduroy.  I actually painted it the day before, but took pictures on Wednesday. 

I was reading posts in one of my FB breast cancer support groups that day and someone was talking about the lymphedema they got after accidentally having their blood pressure taken on their breast cancer side.  I took a picture of my medical alert bracelets to share with her.  I haven't been wearing them (except for when we walk), but what else am I supposed to talk about now?  

Up next: more slow blogging for the rest of last week.
