8th day of Cyber school and our fun day out

Tweet

I love doing the cyber schooling with my son I'm learning things along with him. My memory is terrible so I could have learned these things before but I do not remember them. His school day started by watching a Bill Nye the Science Guy video in homeroom. I used to love that show when I was young but my son was not impressed and was in a terrible mood this morning! His first class of the day was History at 8:50. They talked about the 5 Military Branches and Veterans Day. I learned about the Berry Amendment where all uniforms for the military have to be made in the United States. I loved learning that! His last class was from 10:30 until noon and it was a ELA (Language Arts) assessment. His only homework was a Social Studies lesson. At my daughters school it was a half day for parent teacher conferences. My son and I ate lunch and the anxiety of leaving the house started so we never left the house until around 2. Our first stop was to a place to drop off a few donations that were taking up too much room in the back of my van. The main reason we went out today was to take bags of Halloween candy my children did not want to an orthodontist office and each were given $5 for their bags. The candy will be sent to the military troops in Kuwait. We headed to Walmart to get a few groceries and my son spent his money on Pokemon cards. On Thurdsdays Denny's has kids eat free night. My son is the only one eligible for the free kids meal. My daughter had an enormous Build your own Grand Slam meal. I usually never buy myself anything while we are out but they had a Pumpkin pancake dish that looked amazing so I chose that. It came with scrambled eggs and hashbrowns. It was delicious but very filling. Our last stop of the night was to Chuck E Cheese so they could play for a bit. We all had a nice day. It's about 9:15 pm here. My kids are showered. I am heading there next and then we will go to bed.
