Jan. 4, 2006 - I managed to get in the mood (and school got DONE!)

I spent 30 minutes this morning organizing my next school unit, (actually, for the most part, making a chart to fill out with Konos stuff for each day.  So all I'll have to do is open up my folder and "go" for the day. )  I thought it was pretty cool. 

So when I went back to open it up again, it was in some weird file format and won't open.  GRRR!

I'm glad I didn't spend any longer on it!

Anyway ~ I found out today that the grocery down the street does money orders, so I only had to go right around the corner to pay bills today!  YAY!!  I am very much anti-driving/leaving the house lately.  Now that we have a "me" house, its become even more so.  I think I could just curl up and stay home for a month if someone occasionally came to visit.

So, in addition to a FULL school day (we even did math AND history!) I paid bills, started organizing school unit for the next few weeks, and got a pot roast started for dinner.  I am refusing to paint today, since my wrists are obviously pretty worn out.  I don't want to end up gimpy for another month.  I will go up later and do paper mache some more (yes, yet MORE layers) and finish scheduling out some more school.  Other than that, I am going to relax.  Maybe do some scrapbook stuff.

School Today:

MegaMath subtraction

Archimedes (individual reading & narration)

Cheaper by the Dozen (Readaloud) ~ Was hilarious today, I had tears in my eyes I was laughing so hard...

Copywork (Thank you letters to Uncle Denver & his family)

Bible time

Spell It Deluxe &/Type to learn (one or both, depending on each childs time available)

Reading (independant)  I need to find some different books for the boys.  Paris is actually reading a book she got for Christmas, the "Three Cousins Detective" book/series.  I'm letting her read it mainly to get her started on the series, then she'll have  to read that on her own.
