We are under construction again! This time we are finishing our laundry room. The drywallers were in today and will be back tomorrow to start taping & mudding. Well, if the roads aren't too icy. It is looking really nice. Our classroom is much warmer now. it is next to the laundry room and we had a terrible draft from it being unfinished. We also have a new entrance to the laundry room from the classroom. It cost me a book case but I think it will be worth it. So as I was finding room for my books I started cleaning off my shelves and listed a bunch of them on ebay . It was very successful. I didn't make a fortune, well maybe a small fortune. But it was alot of fun. I enjoyed listing them and waiting for bidders. I'm kinda bored now that it's over. I'll have to find more items to sell. Of course I'll be painting the laundry room soon so that will keep me busy. We are going to Philadelphia this week to see King Tut's Exhibit. The girls are very excited. We didn't take a field trip in January. We have been going to a local church to help feed the homeless this month and the girls have really enjoyed it. One of the families from our co-op belongs to the church so it was great for them to know other that were there. The mom from our co-op is very gifted in letting the children help. So all the children worked together to prepare pizza for everyone. They were all cutting, chopping, saucing the pizza, setting up tables.... it was amazing. This weekend Vanna participated in The 30 Hour Famine at our church and the whole group went there to help. It was a great experience for all. So far she has raised almost $200.00 to feed hungry children. We had a little party for my mom this past week for her birthday. The house was in chaos from the construction but we all survived. Vanna and Madison each played my mom a song they have learned on their instruments. It was very sweet. . We did get her a cake and gifts but I thought their music was the best. Well I'm trying to go to bed early and get up early ( once you break that routine it's hard to get back ) so I had better say, Goodnight! Seeking Him, Missy |
