Truth or Lie?

Sometimes we play a game we call Truth or Lie.  You are supposed to say a couple of things about yourself and the listeners have to figure out which statement is true.   It is a hard one for Kestrel and Cedrus to play because I mostly know what's happened in their lives thus far but Cedrus stumped me on this one.  This is an exact copy of Cedrus wrote on paper:

1) I once temporarily paralized a cat by farting on it.
2) I cheated a test in 1st grade
3) I cut a portion of my eyebrow off when I was 4 or 5

Which one of these statements would you think is true?  And do you like what Cedrus is up to in the photo below?

    I bet he cut off a piece of his eyebrow. Didn't he once chop off some of his hair or was that someone else? I can't tell what he's doing in the photo but if it's cooking, I like it.

    Well, I think CC likes cats way too much to fart on them, though reading that made me laugh so hard that I choked on my breakfast smoothie.

    I can't go with #2 because even if he is not well-prepared, he IS a master of improvisation. So I cannot see him resorting to cheating on a test because he's creative enough to just wing it and still pass.

    Now that I have adjusted my hat and proclaimed once again that "I am Inspector Clouseau of the Sûreté ...", I hereby resolve this mystery and proclaim that he cut off a portion of his eyebrow. But at 4 or 5? Yikes!

    In the photo, the Count is shaving a decadent Blackout Bar and decorating a cake he baked with the shavings. Baking scrumptious desserts and making them look like works of edible art is his ... "spessiality".

Cedrus Wet The Bed

Cedrus Wet The Bed.  This is what Steve announced at the breakfast table yesterday.  No, Steve was not eating breakfast at that time but the rest of us were.  Therefore, he apparently has no issues with bringing up such topics while the rest of us are trying to enjoy our breakfast. Steve does not eat breakfast these days because...well, I think he can't bear to see our faces first thing in the morning.  Or maybe it has something to do with intermittent fasting which he claims is good for you.  I've heard it too but only from people I've decided I don't need to listen to anymore - which is not to say that intermittent fasting is a bad thing.  All I am trying to say is I have no NO clue.  Anyway, back to Cedrus wetting the bed.  Steve starts work early these days and Kestrel, Cedrus and I eat breakfast together.   So this was big news because Steve actually emerged from the office to tell this to us.  We all looked at Cedrus. He was...

Fall 2020 Classes

 Kids no longer bring bags and bags full of projects they did at school.  It was a lot of work to sort through everything but also really fun to review and save memorable projects.  I still haven't completely sorted through the stuff from kindergarten!  What I liked about the mounds of schoolwork stuff was the way I could track what boys were up to.  With homeschooling almost everything is online and it is hard to capture the feel of the year.   Before we get too far into the school year I want to capture what boys are up to this fall.  (If you intend to continue reading this blog post, some of the more interesting stuff is at the bottom.) Kestrel Classes Social Studies: A History of US: 1855 – 1900 With a focus on primary source analysis, critical thinking, and interactive web tools, students will explore the story of America from the Civil War to the divisive class, race, gender and economic struggles of the developing United States at the a...

Today I had a happy time in the park this morning! Running with slow Walk Human. So many smells. Delicious odors of coyote poop. No leash. Left the park through the top exit that I'd never smelled or seen before. Met Cusco Friend. Cusco Friend started out snarling and barking at me, which was scary, but he had his human on a leash so I just ran away and then came back and played at him until he started playing with me. He was good at wrapping his human up with the leash! Walk Human did blah blah with his human. She said they named him Cusco because they were in Cusco, Peru when they first saw his picture, I think? Something like that. Humans do too much blah blah, not enough playing. Walk Human gave me a new toy! It wobbles around and drops out treats. Sometimes I can get it spinning and it throws a bunch around. I can just barely get the top in my mouth to carry it around. See my first time playing. Even when it stops dropping treats, it is fun to play with. Yesterday Walk Human...
