Dust Bunnies And Books

A chapter of our life almost finished......

Posted in Personal

Has it really been two months since I blogged????  Wow!

So what have we been doing all that time???  Well, I'm not sure about the WHOLE time, but the last month or so has been consumed mostly with a DISSERTATION!   DH has been working so hard to get done (his last extension was labeled as a "final extension") so that he could graduate next month!

It's done!!!   It's about 250 pages and was turned in two days ago.  I'm not sure how many reams of paper we went through writing and re-writing it!!  At least 10 in the past month. (That number does include the 7 copies we had to make for the dissertation committee.)  I know we went through over half of the toner cartridge for each of 4 colors. 

He defended it last week, made the recommended changes, and turned it for signatures this past Monday.  As of yesterday, only the final dean was needed to sign it, so I think we're in the clear!  \o/

Just a few more weeks until a long-awaited graduation........

Dust if you must, but there's not much time, with rivers to swim and mountains to climb, music to hear and books to read, friends to cherish and life to lead. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~ Welcome! ~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I've finally bitten the bullet and set up a blog! I'd like keep better track of what we do. I never seem to get a diary going, so we'll try this! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I'm Mom to two beautiful girls, one is 12, the other is 9. We live in the foothills of the Appalachians. We call our homeschool, Anchored in Christ Academy. We love to use literature-based unit studies, mostly from HomeSchoolShare.com. In the past, we have also loved Five in a Row. We have just begun our 7th year of homeschooling. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
