Blogging....

       Well had a really busy weekend.... had to help out with my sister's birthday party. And for anyone who has younger siblings, you know how difficult it is to keep 10 first graders from burning the house down... or at least keeping them from making the floor of your living room into the collection pile for empty juice boxes, popsicle sticks, and miscellaneous food. Kids.... gotta love them.

       So, I did not get much reading done :( So I was in my pj's and all ready for bed... and then this horrible feeling sinks in. I HAVE TO POST MY SECOND BLOG!! So it's like 11 at night and now I'm racking my brain for something to talk about. Don't get me wrong... normally I can fill this page with ANYTHING but at this hour, that's really not an option.

      How about some random things I happened to read over the weekend? Cleaning the house can really turn up some pretty unique findings...

1). I found this old science book lying around the house (so old it literally had dust on every page) and I flipped it open and saw this really cool picture of the Stonehenge at sunset. So inevitably, my eyes glided over to the words corresponding to it. According to this page, science started with astronomy. Apparently when our ancestors looked towards the sky and saw the different glistening lights in the dark sky, 'science' was born. They saw the changing moon from night to night, the sun's systematic setting and rising, and the numerous wandering planets visible with a glimpse through a telescope.

2). Awkwardly picked up a copy of Little Women from the bookshelf- the book was so tiny that the cover was probably the size of my hand, so undoubtedly was it thick. It was a very strangely shaped book... Anyways I read the back cover and it said that this was about 4 sisters growing up in New England during the Civil War and how they share everything with each other. From happiness to gloom, love to hate, they're always there for each other. I found this strangely relatable. Besides living in a different society, I can totally understand how and why they'd share so much with each other..

      Well it was just one of those weekends... Too sleepy to add pictures... Sorry!!
