Feeling human again, Let's go bowling!

It was a few weeks. So tired, all the time, barely able to get anything done. Then finally, I was able to have a few good days interspersed with the bad days, and now I've had three good days in a row. I even managed to get through today without a nap, and I'm not even feeling like a zombie at the end of the day. I really hope that the worst is behind me and it won't start up again.

We took the kids bowling last week on one of my good days. They had a blast. Deano won. Andrew decided early on that he would rather not use the ramp. They both had a great time. Isaac was having a hard time though because he just wanted to play with the balls, and was extremely frustrated that we wouldn't let him. One of the people that worked there gave him a few rubber balls to play with instead. That helped a little, it was a good thing we brought grandma along to keep him entertained.

It takes a village to raise a child

I'm reading a book for my class called "Boys Adrift" by Leonard Sax. I'm getting close to the end of the book, and as I've been reading I've been fearing for my sons a bit. This book is all about how more and more recently boys tend to lose motivation and are content to live with their parent's until they're 30, playing video games and doing little else. It talked about how the education system has been changing in recent years and how in many cases it tends to disengage boys from school. Lots of smart boys just stop caring about school and call it "stupid" and just stop trying while instead they put more and more effort into video games. Of course, these trends don't apply to all boys, but it seems to be happening more and more. Girls are starting to fall into this pattern too, but not nearly to the extent that boys are. He tried to guess as to some of the reasons why this might be. There is a whole chapter just about how c...
