news and conversations

So I was waiting on a science book to arrive, and it finally came on the afternoon I scheduled my first lessons- what timing. We made play-dough Earths this week. I'm feeling really tired these days and want to do more for myself, like.... exercise, or do a Bible study... a hike through the woods would do.

So I put Jo's MP3 player on and danced. Pretty goofy looking, I promise, but I feel better. I also can't touch my toes to the back of my head like I used to years ago. I'm going to make that a personal goal. LOL

Jo auditioned at the local arts center and was cast in "A Christmas Carol." She gets to memorize over 20 songs, in an alto part - a new stretch for her. She plays "Amelia," who is one of the girls in a family that would benefit from Scrooge's death.

Daniel is well into flag football. He's got quite a nice spiral on his throw. And scouting continues. We're up and running for sure. We've just completed week 6 of school- and I didn't drop any "plates" until this week. Now that I'm schooling 4 at home- including a middle schooler, I really have to organize my time. Don't look too closely at the furniture- I think it says "DUST ME."

Back to the schoolroom I go!
