I've been thinking about your element all week, but it didn't come to me till today. Au. You're gold. Rare, shiny, strong but soft, and refined by heat. Sorry you've been feeling that last part lately.
@Karin, I do remember the chalk in the ear, but can't come up with a name? Mr B(frosh bio) comes to mind more readily. And to each our own challenges, I could no more handle 3 girls than I could fly to the moon :).
@Capital Mom ... thanks for that thought! It's true we can't be all the time, but I do feel the need to up my averages, I focus too much on practicality I think. Glad math sparkles for you and yours, that's cool!

Even about our kids. :-) That is great that you have found something that you like to learn with them. I can see how that would make the exereince a million times more enjoyable.

( get most excited about math. I love math. I can see how my excitment about it is making my kids excited too.)

I can barely manage a full weekend alone with my three and some weekends look forward to Monday mornings when they all go back to school as if my life depended on it... You ROCK. But ha, you thought the questions were bad before, you better really watch out now as he starts adding elements together! What if I added X to Y and then did K? Boom? Sounds like fun!

And I have to ask, do you remember the chemistry teacher we had who used to stick chalk in his ear? :)

Right

5 and a half

Had three tumors removed from my ovaries, one the size of a grapefruit. God bless the surgeon who saved the ovaries so I could be a mom for 5 and a half years!

That's a tough one, but since my favorite comfort book is/are Lord of the Rings, maybe Frodo. Is that weird? Some days I sure feel like all the ringwraiths are after me and where the hell is the fellowship? Or maybe Eowyn, who when faced with the towering Wraith sneering "No man may defeat the Nazgul" yells "I am no Man!" and kills him. Ha. At the very least I think we have proved here that I am a geek. :)

2) left and the only one in my family who is.
3) 25, almost 26 years which has to be impossible because I'm sure I'm not more than 32!
4) I once tripped and put my hands out to break my fall which broke my left hand and jammed the right. Not good, especially when you have two babies.
5) I'm prone to highs and lows so I'd have to say I alternate between Eeyore and being an irritating Pollyanna.
