• May. 12, 2006 - So today......

....I'm on my hands and knees scraping up linoleum adhesive.  We decided to do some major home renovations here recently and so we're replacing the kitchen linoleum and the dining floor carpeting (lunacy, I swear!!) with some beautiful sage green ceramic tile.  We are getting a good deal by having some friends of ours help us out.  Now, after this, we are having new countertops put on and then after THAT, we are extending our deck.  We feel so blessed to be able to do all of this and we hope that it will help the resale value of our home. 

 

So, I get up this morning and tell the kids right off the bat--"Kids, today we're taking off school so Mommy can get some work done on the floor".  Well, that went over not so nicely and we ended up doing school (Math and handwriting) and they all had good attitudes and were eager to learn.  I hope noone ever tells them that they aren't supposed to like math!  So I feel doubly accomplished.  I will post before, during and after pics of our Kitchen when the projects are completed.

 

Have a great day everyone!!

About Me

Just a basic daily (or when I can) log of what we do in our homeschooling adventure with 4 girls ranging in age from 2 to seven. We are currently seeking a rather ecclectic/type approach using a little Charlotte Mason and lifestyle training in a very literature rich setting with a little this and that thrown in just to make it interesting.
