It's been an interesting time here at the Hummus Household. Cold viruses are living here among us. The dog is having some kind of crazy shadow-and-light chasing phase that seems worse at dusk. We miss our cat. The kids have tolerated standardized testing beyond what would be allowed by the Geneva Convention.
J-dude is trying to figure out the surface area of various bizarre shapes.
I think being one of the youngest kids in your class, getting put in a math class that essentially skips a year of math and throws you forward (based on previous years' torture test results), adjusting to junior high, adjusting to having laptop computers of your own for school, and having an old mom who is a math whiz....well, that just has to stink.
He's struggling in lots of ways. I wish I had a magic wand.
By the way, it's Pi day...3-14, as in 3.14 the value of pi (rounded to 2 decimal places of course).
He's also sneezing, a sign that the cold virus is thinking of taking up a vacation rental property in his schnozz.
We are learning as we go.

I love your title. Once upon a time I would have understood the math involved. I still understand the feeling of being booted up into an advanced math class in junior high.
Hope you are all healthy for spring break!
I barely understand pi other than to eat it to infinitely and beyond, to quote buzz lightyear. But I will settle for rounded off since I love Kim's crust. I like the title too.
Happy Belated Pi Day. I love your title, too. I hope everybody gets and stays better soon. Spring must come! Hang in there, sweeties.
