This is a recording.

You have reached the blog of Dy. She is not at home right now, because she is in the barn, or at the ballfield, or en route to town.

Other people do these things, and do them with many more children in tow, and still remain articulate beyond suppertime. Yes, she knows this. (And if she were still articulate tonight, she would agree.) She is, however, a slow learner (remember, that's why God only gave her one at a time, no?) Plus, the typing-related speech impediment from her wound has reduced her to thinking in terms of spelling out entire words as she hen-pecks the keys. This new glitch, it seems, renders paragraphical thought a mere notion. Humor or wisdom are likewise out of reach for the time being.

Please leave a message at the bottom and she will get back to you when EmBaby leaves for college, or the splint comes off, whichever comes. Eventually.

Kiss those babies!
~Dy

I hope you got some much needed rest tonight!

I hope that the finger is healing nicely. That sounds incredibly painful. As well as being a REALLY bad spot to try and get to heal.

And yes, other people do "these things", but we're bad at blogging regularly. I think that there's a connection!!

We were cutting and clearing backberry breyers yesterday, and I was thinking of you. ;-) Maybe we could compare scratches??

Oh I just hate answering machines. ;) How's the finger healing?

And yet somehow you posted a very funny paragraph...

Ladies and gentlemen, how DOES she do it? ;)

Having kids does seem to make blogging about kids harder, doesn't it? I'm finding it to be so.

I don't know of anyone else who does as much as you do and still manages to blog regularly! :)
