[QUOTE="moonglow, post: 315643, member: 256"] Yea, I am not always very bendable either...lol. I am also not really good about getting up on the floor very easily either..lol. Good idea..thanks. :) Thanks for the ideas. Hadn't thought about sewing at all. I can barely sew anything myself actually...:( Nate did learn to use a sewing machine at school in home encomics..he seemed to enjoy that though we don't have a sewing machine at home. Not exactly something I would even want to do...lol I think they sell those cooking programs for DS now..its like a game boy but more advanced. Don't think I would have the money to buy it though and my cooking is pretty simply stuff and doesn't need recipes. Anything in a box usually had the recipes on it already like cooking rice. But mostly I cook fresh meat, vegetable, potatoes. You know I will have to think about this ...I learned to cook through my mom just going through the steps with me and all us girls just memorized how to cook certain meals. Never looked at any recipes...but that might be something Nate may need. Maybe I should write the steps out for him instead of just expecting him to learn like I did. Hadn't thought of that. Of course I would never ever just turn him loose in the kitchen. He makes me a nervous wreck when he is helping me or trying to cook something at it is. So of course I am right next to him!! I am just scared to death he will get badly burned..:( It would help if he wasn't so hyper and his movements were slower and calmer in the kitchen..but like I said, he is like a bull in a china cabinet at times. He thinks he can stirs things in boiling water or frying in a skillet without holding onto the handle and he isn't gentle about it so the pot or skillet starts sliding around...very scary to me! So its not very often I let him help with cooking because of this. It would just kill me if he got badly burned and ended up in the hospital. Maybe we should start out with less dangerous things for him to do. He is just 13 so has plenty of time to learn to cook. Julie [/QUOTE]
