Picking up school pictures today!

I have to pick up the kids school pictures today. One advantage of being enrolled with an umbrella is that we got to take school pictures this year for the first time in 5 years. The kids take soccer pictures every year and these are what I have used in place of the school photos. I think the kids liked being able to get their picture made. I hope they turned out good.

I am joining the gym. I have finally made my decision. I am selling my treadmill (which I never use) and using the money to go to the gym.  I went and visited yesterday and it was really nice. There is a ladies only gym that I can work out in and it has everything I need. Just pray for me that I can be consistent. I am not doing a year contract right now. They have a special offer that you can join for just 2 months and don't have to do a contract.  I am going to try that first and see how it goes and if I like it, I will join. I need to lose about 20 pound, and of course the exercise will make me healthier and I hope it makes me feel better.  I just feel tired all the time and they say exercise can give you more energy, hmmm...we will see.  I am trying to get some of my friends to join with me so I will have some accountability.  I really need someone to meet me and be in this with me. I think it would help me stay motivated.  Hopefully, someone will accept my offer..

Gotta go and start school..by the way..we are really enjoying Mystery of History 2. It is so interesting.  The kids like it much better than BJU and they are understanding it and retaining it better. We really like Rainbow Science too. It has 2 lessons and then an experiment per week. It is great. 

We are having to test this year per the umbrella school. I need to get some test prep books and go over them with the kids pretty soon. I think I will do that today and start them after Christmas.  Hope you have a great day!!

My son is enrolled in an independent study program. They also offered school picture packages. There are some great things that go with umbrella programs.
