“Happy 1/2 price candy day!!!” Is what I would usually say today, but the candy wasn’t 1/2 price!! Oh the horror! It is usually 1/2 price because of Halloween, but it wasn’t this year, but we still found some candy on sale! Yay!!! Today is also the first of November!!! And I’m still in short sleeves, well that’s Arkansas for you. But dad’s birthday is in November, and only two more months until January!!! Wow, seems like it was just yesterday when the new year came, but so much has happened sense then… Speaking of things happening, last night I was thinking about something and they were having a conversation, they were talking about potatoes, and then mom said she couldn’t imagine not having them, at least that’s the part I heard and I said “You can’t imagine having potatoes???” Incredulously, not realizing until after that she was talking about us kids. We got a good laugh out of that one!!! And mom was acting frustrated and Adi said, “If your acting like this you need a nap!” And mom said “Yes I do, can I go take one!!! And Adi said “Once you get me on the computer!”
Today in history we didn’t read the same things in two different books, Yay!!! I think Romans are mostly Greek, they stole their “gods,” stories, and land. The Romans were very rich, and built a lot of roads!!! They had milestones, stones that told you how many miles until you got somewhere. They were the first to use concrete, and aqua-ducts.
