Hi Ali,
Sorry I have not been around much, I have been stuck in bed...yuck. I think your house sounds like a small zoo! Keep up the reading, it is good for the soul and the brain! I am reading a book entitled "From the Otherside", it is about giving people the benefit of the doubt and how it affects our inner being. I have not done much "pleasure" reading and I guess a trip to the library would be welcome, thankfully our library has an online system so that helps some.
You take care of yourself!
