  • What? Where?

    Why have there been no updates? I will follow a time-honored tradition and blame the kids. Cotton is mobile, Seph wants to sign up for everything under the sun, Rone wants to stay home and do Lego, and somehow we are always out of milk aside from the 30 minutes right after we've bought some. And I was out of contact lens solution for about six days (don't ask), so everything was extra bleary.

    We've been plotting out fall, getting lessons decided on and signed-up for. And I've been paging the curriculum catalog, which is just dangerous. This week we've had two pool parties with the other area homeschoolers, and started up our Campfire meetings.

    Rone's starting tennis, and continuing karate. Seph is continuing tennis, bookclub, and piano, and will be taking dance with Miss Joan again this year. She's going to be a helper in the class for the 3-4 year olds, which is a great opportunity for her. We're also doing swimming lessons once a week for the next few weeks, and have Science Club once a month. I'm also thinking of arranging some sort of talent show for the area kids. And I think Seph is joining a Bug Club. Our House Project for this semester is to build the chicken coop. And then Rone is doing math and reading, and Seph has Saxon math, Latin, handwriting, and science for her seatwork.

    This is what I end up doing when I very sternly instruct myself not to do too much.

    Things I didn't sign up for: girl's choir, fiddle lessons, German lessons, drama, Chinese lessons, gymnastics, preschool, history day, and ice skating. I'm tired just thinking of it all.

    luv ya

  • no macrame?

  • Ok, who turned off the RSS feed again?? I hadn't seen your posts come through in a while, and thought you just hadn't been posting, but lo and behold, you have! You know I'm too lazy to check this kind of thing myself! :)

  • I live to thwart you, is what it's about. When I turned it back on, there were just too many web-bots checking in and updating themselves. I'm paranoid, I know. I just didn't like making it any easier for the catalog robots to make my blog searchable. I know anyone can see it, but you sort of have to know it exists, first.

    It's just another one of those things I do that likely have negligible effect, but make me feel better. Like washing my hair twice, or making my own chicken stock.
