he said to them, "Take to heart all the words I have solemnly declared to you this day, so that you may command your children to obey carefully all the words of this law. They are not just idle words for you -- THEY ARE YOUR LIFE. By them you will live long in the land you are crossing the Jordan to possess."
Deuteronomy 32:46-47

~ What We Do For.... ~

Good Morning All!

I got to thinking...I haven't posted that much about homeschooling, dispite the fact that I am on HSB, so I would like to begin a series on "What We Do For...Bible, History, Science, etc.", taking a subject a day (perhaps not consecutive days) and just journaling about it with photos.  I say, "I would like to", however, my camara is not working AGAIN (augh).  So hopefully later today I will have the first post done - but will have to wait on the photos until either my dh figures out what is wrong with the camara or we buy a new one.  (sigh). 

Otherwise, we are busy, busy, busy with school and as soon as we are done with our school day, I'm upstairs in Ladybug's room, working on her Extreme Room Makeover.  Right now, her old wallpaper border is fighting me every inch of the way.  It isn't old - this makes the third re-decorating in 10 years - so it's only about 4 yrs. old, but dispite me putting sizing on before I papered, it's a stubborn bugger.  I called my MIL, the wallpaper queen, last night for advice and she instructed me to add fabric softener to the hot water that I was soaking the wallpaper with - and it does help, but still slow.  I only got 1 & 1/3 walls done last night - but we press on.  We are going from a turquoise & white wall with a happy sunshine border to a all-pink wall with poke-a-dots of orange, lime green, dark pink, & lavander.  Thankfully, I am using the removeable wallpaper decals for the dots so the next redo won't be so hard.  Ladybug is my 70's child, in decor & fashion, so most everything she just LOVES - I don't.  But, we try to come to a compromise.  :)   Stay tuned for pictures -- if I get my camara going.

Have a nice day everyone.
Blessings, Jane

I love re-doing rooms! But alas, I've finally reached my limit until we get a new house (I hope.) I'll be looking forward to your camera working so I can see!

I, also, have been thinking I should be making some 'homeschool' posts, but today found us flipping Grandma's room while the 'students' read.

Thanks for the nice comment.
Peace and Laughter!

I have enjoyed catching up with your blog today. I always enjoy your pictures!
We are going to redo our daughters bedroom and I was glad for the wallpaper removal tip, ours is 4 layers........ugh!
Your school area looks so nicely organized..
I was raised in Burnett County, on the Wi. side and seeing those pictures of your camping trip made me miss that area so much. What a wonderful time you must have had in such a beautiful place.
We are starting to get school going, but it will be another week or so before I feel more together with it all....

Are you going to put up new wallpaper? We took a vow never to paper again when we had to remove paper to sell our home!
