Homeschool and Beyond

Jan. 26, 2007

Friday, Friday

A hearty how-de-do to Ferrol if you are reading! What a nice surprise to see your name and hear from you!

Well, well. How did it get to be Friday already? I feel like I'm still not on top of things this homeschool year. The kids are all doing their work, projects are being completed, but I just feel as if I'm not doing my part. Strange.

Tomorrow, The Hunter and TGD head to Palmyra, PA, for a shooting match. This will be Hunter's first of the year. Oh, boy. I get to sit in a ski lodge from 12 to 5 as the Youth Group indoor chaperone and bag-watcher. The rest will be tubing (except Little Miss who will spend the day at a friend's house). Ah, five hours to sit and read and play the occasional board game. Life sounds pretty good!

I know many of you are avid readers and movie watchers. Imagine that this weekend you had the opportunity to switch places with any character in any movie or book (but just for this weekend). Which one would you choose? If I had to switch forever, I'd pick very differently than for just a weekend jaunt. Would I like to be Thursday Next? Guinevere? Trinity? Ada Monroe? So many choices. Which do you choose?

Jan. 27, 2007 - Ah, but you make books!

And other things like that. Cross-stitch is just little x's, a straight stitch, and the occasional french knot, but mostly just little x's. I can do it and listen to anything--but not watch things. I could do it all day--just wish I didn't have to cook!

We're rooting for Hunter. Hope he does well.

Blessings,

Feb. 2, 2007 - How did the Hunter do?

Posted by OurLittleSchoolRoom

Was it you who asked if we were into the Super Bowl up here? I was going to say that it wasn't a big deal (it isn't for us anyway), until I heard the news tonight. There was a story about someone (a Canadian, but originally from Nigeria, I think) who plays for the Bears--and it may have lasted all of five minutes. So I guess some folk are interested.

Wondering how Hunter did in his match last weekend.

Blessings,
Karen
