In my life this week...
I'm really struggling with getting it all done. Our home, my life, my desk-is cluttered. I need to get a handle on things, but I just don't have the energy. I feel like I move from one event to the next.
In our homeschool this week...
I am excited that we will be starting A Child's Geography with my 3 youngest students. Josie might be sitting in, if she is interested.
Places we're going and people we're seeing...
Karate lessons, fencing lessons, Irish dance lessons, piano & violin lessons, Meg's highschool classes. Whew, I'm tired already! We traditionally go out for shamrock shakes for St. Patrick's day..I'm debating if we should try home-made this year. The shamrock shake thing is something I remember from my childhood, I love to share this with my kids :)
My favorite thing this week was...
watching Sky and the kids prepare the garden for a new season, and filling up the bird-feeders again.
What's working/not working for us...
I am really liking Writing with Ease with the 4 youngest students. I am a bit frustrated working through Story of the World 4 on our own, we decided not to spend money on another Sonlight Core for Josie, and I am already frustrated with myself and my stumbling with finding books at the library to supplement. I was really spoiled with Sonlight, having all the books I need on my shelf. Sigh.
Homeschool questions/thoughts I have...
I just need to get better organized, no surprise there, but oh how I struggle with this.
