Musings from the Mahan School for Little Women

And I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free. And I won't forget the men who died, who gave that right to me.~Lee Greenwood

Here I am!

Posted in Schooling

I really don't like it when I visit friends or random blog and find out that the blogs haven't been written in for months. It hasn't been months since I wrote but it has been a few weeks. I promise, if I ever decide to quit blogging, I will write a final entry, Lord willing, so people will know. I have wanted to write recently but, to be truthful, when I have had the time, I haven't felt up to it or want to do something else . I hope to get back into a regular schedule both of posting and reading. I want to take advantage of the friends feature being back up and running!

Not much is happening on the house front. We had 3 prospects look at it 2 weeks ago but it was either bigger than was being looked for or they preferred another neighborhood (a gated one). I just keep trusting that God will send the right buyer at the right time!

Now that I am finished with getting the house ready, I have been doing some school planning. We hope to start this coming Monday although we did do some math review this week. I have been able to get all of Unit 1 for Year 2 of TOG planned. The 2 older girls and I will be doing Latin this year using Latin Road to Grammar and I am using her phonics program to review with the twins in hopes it will help their spelling. Longleggedgirl is going to give Apologia Science a try this year so we will see how that goes. I haven't decided if I am going to do any science with the twins. If so, it will probably just be some unit study type things.

Our weekends have been busy with swim meets at least every other week. This weekend is the season end championship so please pray the girls do well. I have challenged them to win a personal big ribbon and I think some of them have a chance if they swim like they have earlier this season.

I have also been trying to get some fun in. We went to the beach and tubing on the Ichutucknee last week so that made for a busy week. I have been dong some scrapbooking this week along with trying to work a puzzle that I have had for quite a few months.

I have some pictures I want to post so hopefully I will find some time this weekend after the meets so stay tune. I'm still around

I've been wondering how things were going for you~ especially with the house sale. Gee~ I can't imagine a house being TOO big~ we'd love a bigger one~ can you move it to PA? I guess not.
Can't wait to see your pics,

Sounds like you have been busy. I've missed reading your blogs, but totally understand the craziness.

I'm impressed that you are able to plan school out and sell your home at the same time. I will say some prayers for the sale. As you said - trust HIM - it will all be in HIS timing.

So where is Ichutucknee? Never heard of that. Sounds like fun!
