Today was the first day of summer school. I went early to help get things ready, but Cindy was already there teaching the kids. During the night Connie had awakened me to tell me she was really sick with bad stomach cramps. At one point she wanted to go to ER, but decided to tough it out and go to the Dr. instead. He took tests, but there wasn't much else he could do. She's still quite uncomfortable.
I don't know if she'll try to work tomorrow. I doubt it.
Zack is catching up with work in Summer School. He's struggling with history. I'm not sure why. He's always done pretty well with it before. In fact, his average is pretty good, but he's taking the final review and having a hard time.
Elizabeth is all caught up and finished with school, so I bought her an arts and crafts book and she worked on that all day making stick flowers. They came out pretty well. She's very good at working on her own if it's drawing or any kind of art.
When we got home around 1:00, Connie still wasn't feeling very well. I made a meat loaf for dinner. Later she felt better and she made some beads with Elizabeth. I bought a dowel so Elizabeth could make ceramic beads and then make her own jewelry. She has a great eye for design, so I'm trying to encourage it in her.
Zack hasn't done any ceramics for quite a while. Not sure if he's keeping an interest in it or not. Now that I have my own complete studio, I was hoping the kids would work there a lot this summer. But, we still have a lot more cleaning out of the garage. After I added the slab roller, pottery wheel and the kiln, there wasn't much room for moving about.
