Coronavirus Chronicles – Day 9

I spent most of today in bed. I was exhausted, my stomach was upset, and my muscles are sore. I have been exercising while at home. I am determined not to pack on the pounds while staying at home. The problem is that I haven’t exercised in a long time. My body is not happy with being forced to exercise. I know this pain is temporary. Also, I need to stay active too. I like playing with my boys outside, but these two nine-year-old are rough. They want to jump on you and tackle you. That’s just too much!

Before I spent most of the day in bed, I started the day teaching my sons about crystals. I got them a National Geographic crystal growing kit for Christmas. I hid it and forgot about it, so I gave it to them for their birthday last month. Today, we opened it and used it.

After reading the book about crystals that came with the kit, we did what was necessary to make our own crystals.

Now, we have to wait 7-10 days for the crystals to form.

Since I was a bit under the weather, my boys did some extra chores. I only have pictures of Jerry because James did not want a picture taken of him cleaning.
