• Sorry about the silence yesterday.  The writing's moving
  slowly.  I've got some vague ideas but no real feel as to how to
  tie threads together, and still the characters are fuzzy in my
  mind.  Most annoying!

  Today I've got BSF this morning, then fellowship, then a two hour
  seminar on "Sharing the Gospel", so it's not going to be a high volume
  day, as far as NaNoWriMo goes.

  Dmitry took a science test yesterday, which is newsworthy because he
  worked on that packet all by himself, and I wasn't even aware he was
  going to take a test at all.  He is cautiously optimistic that he
  passed it.  He appears to be determined to try to do the work the
  way the others do, i.e. at school, rather than relying so much on my
  help at home.  He's not wanting me to type answers out for him,
  too, instead studying the packet and the answers he wrote.

  His father voiced a suspicion this has more to do with his preference
  for playing games with Taylor in the evening instead of sitting on the
  bed with me, working on packets.  Okay, I'll admit the thought
  flit across my mind, but on the whole, I'd rather think he's Taking
  Charge of his education.
