Busy? Yeah, And Then I Have A Question

I noticed another new “Follower” has signed on this afternoon.  Welcome aboard to JODI and a great big THANK YOU for tuning in to read about our RV lifestyle.  I appreciate your interest and hope you enjoy!

Yesterday while we were with the girls, Bruce played the online game “Know Your States” with the girls.  I found this site on Margie and Roger's blog.  She gave a link to it in her post from July 12th.  The girls enjoyed playing it and finding the states location on the unmarked United States map.  It is a good geography game.

                                                           Mackenzie points to the location to place the state with a “click and drag” feature.

 

                                                           This is the game on our computer screen.  Place states in the correct location.

Today was a busy day for us….so what else is new?  We had to get Mackenzie off to her gymnastics center by 9:00 so she could go on the field trip to another teams gym for a joint workout session.  Got that job done and then it was time to drop Annie off for her hair-do appointment over at Petco. 

I made a quick stop at Weight Watchers while Bruce and Zoey went and did a little shopping for our trip to Idaho.  Then it was a trip to Mickey D’s for breakfast and then back home.  Oops…then they called and said Annie was ready, so we had to get back in the car and fetch her.  She looked great!  And smelled soooooo clean.  We wanted to have her clean and shiny when she goes on her little vacation to Aunt Anne’s house. 

I played a reading game with Zoey after lunch.  She is going into Kindergarten in September and I prepared several word flash cards for reading readiness.  These are some basic words that kids need to know “by sight” and knowing these before going into Kindergarten will help.  She knew all of them at a glance, except for 10.  So we will work on those.  I made up about 40 cards to work on with her. 

                                                           Simple words like:  the, good, and, him, here are ones kids need to know by sight.

At 1:00 I took Zoey to the Tumwater Library for craft time.  She enjoyed working on 2 projects while we were there.  It was organized by a wonderful employee at our library and she had all the supplies laid out on long tables.  Zoey made a fish with “stained glass” sections and a yarn octopus.  She had fun.

                                                           The “stained glass” was colorful tissue paper segments she glued on after cutting hole

                                                           Her face is scratched up because she took a header on the driveway.
By the time we got back from the library, Mommy was home….and Grandma and Papa were off duty for 2 weeks!!  Going home to pack for our trip to Soda Springs.  Leaving tomorrow at 5:00 am. 

My Question:  Does anybody else have a situation where the number of Followers showing on the dashboard does NOT match the actual number of images showing on the web page?  My number shown on the blog page and dashboard says 3 more than I actually count by the images.  It doesn’t really matter, but I was wondering why the discrepancy?  Anyone else have this situation?  I get nowhere on the Google Help site so no point going back there.  

Hopefully, we’ll have AT&T service in Soda Springs so I can post a blog.  If not, we’ll be back on Friday of this week.  Hope everyone has a great week.

Until next time….so long for now!
