About Me

The Learning Zone was the very first name we decided on as a homeschool. This was when we first discussed homeschooling, BEFORE public school. Our homeschool name has since evolved (incorporating our family name). My blog on the other hand, is a place to share with you, my roots. It is my little zone where I can share my world, our learning, and maybe, even decompress. My daughter came home from public school in September of 2007, after she finished 2nd grade. We have been enjoying our adventure ever since.

The Learning Zone
Sep. 17, 2008
The Simple Woman's Daybook ~~September 17
FOR TODAY ... September 17, 2008

Outside My Window  ...  a beautiful and brisk September morning.  It reminds me of when I was kid and those first few chilly mornings walking to school.

I am thinking  ...  my daughter's cough doesn't sound good.  I hope it is just a cold.

I am thankful for  ...  the pile of boxes in my living room that seems to be dwindling down.  There are still plenty more in storage but this means we'll be able to bring more in the house.

From the kitchen  ...   birthday cake for dh.  I also have to take the overripe bananas and put them in the freezer to save for future use.

I am wearing  ...  a forest green long sleeved tee, capri pants and socks

I am creating  ...  a list of things to do when I'm in the city tomorrow.

I am reading  ...  The Knowledge Deficit by E.D. Hirsch, Jr.

I am hoping  ...  Ginger will be well enough to attend co-op tomorrow.  The theme is a science related show and tell at a local park.

I am hearing  ...  the Society Finches and Zebra Finches in the next room.

Around the house  ...  I've already started laundry today.  I will finish that and continue with the boxes.  Even though she is under the weather, we'll be doing some school today.

One of my favorite things  ... good coffee

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week:  I need to call the 4H office and martial arts studio to get Ginger set up for the year.  I talked to someone from Girl Scouts and a possible piano teacher yesterday.

Here is picture thought I am sharing   ...  

We have these little guys all over our yard...well...under our yard.  I will definitely be posting about them soon because they are really neat little creatures (not to mention on the endangered species list).
