SL Week 22 "A"-LOW (Nov 8-12, 2011)

Week 45 of Core 3 /  Core D.  This wasn't a spectacularly productive week for us: because we had a lot of LIFE to do-hospital visits, doctor visits, garden harvest, haircut, library, and the Children's Museum (planetarium-Egypt visit-Frog exhibit-Treasures of the Earth exhibit, carousel trips x 6....  We had a very, very difficult Monday.  Mon we also went to the dermatologist to have a bump on Dd's eyebrow looked at. Giz went to the hospital Tues.  The doc was ready to cut in out then and there.  We will give it some time and pray on it for a little while.  We visited Giz at the hospital on Thurs.  We had Aqua Athlete's on Tues.; I messed up and arrived an hour early so we got to have a Nature Walk on the trail around the complex.  We had an excellent field trip with LHE to the Children's Museum on Thur. and we went to a book sale on Friday...and two visits to the library too!
