I used to write down a lot of our little mishaps in story form.. I wasn't really that good at it (I'm still not!) but I like the idea of preserving such innane memories, now that us kids are all grown up and moved out and in my case, having kids of our own!
I'm not sure if these little stories will make sense to anyone who doesn't know us, let alone be funny, but I thought I'd take a chance (yes, I really am THAT bored...) and upload and upload a few, just to see what people think.
Anyways.. that's it I guess....i plan on writing more of them, but whether I upload them here or not totally depends on if people want to read them or not
Questionable 
And your family seems a lot like mine. ^^ Except we don't live in the country and I have TWO illogical brothers...But the rest of it is eerily familiar. Including the homeschool bit, lol.
Thanks for sharing your gift with us!
But diaries are the opposite of novels, in that time increases instead of decreasing their interest. After a reasonable period every sentence in a diary blossoms into interest, and the diarist simply cannot be dull --- any more than a great wit such as Sidney Smith could be unfunny. If Sidney Smith asked Helen to pass him the salt, the entire table roared with laughter because it was inexplicably so funny. If the diarist writes in his diary, "I asked Helen to pass me the salt," within three years he will find the sentence inexplicably interesting to himself. In thirty years his family will be inexplicably interested to read that on a certain day he asked Helen to pass him the salt. In three hundred years a whole nation will be reading with inexplicable and passionate interest that centuries earlier he asked Helen to pass him the salt, and critics will embroider theories upon both Helen and the salt and will even earn a living by producing new annotated editions of Helen and the salt. And if the diary turns up after three thousand years, the entire world will hum with the inexplicable thrilling fact that he asked Helen to pass him the salt; which fact will be cabled round the globe as a piece of latest news; and immediately afterwards there will be cabled round the globe the views of expert scholars of all nationalities on the problem whether, when he had asked Helen to pass him the salt, Helen did actually pass him the salt, or not. Timid prospective diarists in need of encouragement should keep this great principle in mind.
