• WOW! What a hectic week. It’s been filled with making worksheets and vocabulary sheets, planning lessons, reading my own text books, cleaning the house, grocery shopping and preparing for the car wash fund raiser. I’m pooped and we still have the car wash to do!! YIKES!

  
  

  Today was one of those days when I wondered why I ever thought for a second I should home school. I also repeatedly questioned why I ever agreed to home school the landlord’s son. All of you who home school I’m sure can relate. It was one of those days. “W” asked repeatedly for a break. He’d take a break, work 5 minutes and want another break. All day I spent trying to keep him on track. And Squirt has a writing assignment that is due Monday that she has been procrastinating for about 2 weeks, she worked on it today and completed……………. NOTHING!!

  
  

   AAARRRGHHHHH………..

  
  

  Although she did make a new home schooled friend (hopefully a better influence than her arsonist pal) at the “Can Do Days” yesterday. That’s good for her. There is not a very active home school group or community here, and we have really felt the lack of companionship and support. However, this negative aspect has not forced her to public school, she would still prefer to be at home.

  
  

  Tomorrow is the car wash for Silver_Fangz People to People trip. We have been organizing, sending e-mails, painting signs and gathering supplies. It’s been a busy week. Tomorrow will be even busier and Sunday — MOTHER’S DAY!. We ordered the flowers for our respective moms and I personally am looking forward to day of relaxation! (I hope!). Ok, just a wiki wiki update today, have to go work on dinner. Have a great week end and to all the moms out there:

  
  

   

  
  

  HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!!!
