A Typical Day for Winter 2008
6:45 Time to wake up and do morning chores
7:30 Breakfast and Kitchen clean-up
8:00 Devotions, Brain Gym, and Read-Aloud
9:30 Editing Drill and Math Drills
9:45 Start Individual Lessons
12:00 Lunch and clean-up
1:30 Back to classroom
3:00 Free Time
4:30 Evening Chores and Dinner Preps
6:00 Dinner and Kitchen Clean-up
7:00 Family Time
8:00 Bedtime Routine for children usually begins
8:30 Quiet Reading in Bedrooms
9:00 Lights out for children
10:00 Lights out for mommy!
This schedule is flexible, but it is pretty close to this everyday.
This week we finished all of the school work I scheduled except that Jordan has one Test to finish (Bible). We did not finish all of the To Do List I wrote, but I am always over ambitious in that area (and under energetic).
I managed to get a lot of little tasks done and feel great about that.
I have lost a total of 16 lbs. so far too!

You inspire me!! We do not stick as well to our schedule, although due to hubby's schedule ours works much later than yours. I will keep your health routine in my prayers, good to hear weight loss is coming along well enough. I love the little ticker, I should get one of those. Anyway, happy new year to you! Hugs!!

We go to bed later, but we have been getting there earlier and earlier. We also have Caleb going down at 9 with the other Littles and Middles.
I enjoyed looking over your schedule. I just made a new one out for us! Out of necessity! I am going to post it on my blog and on TDTW.
I had to set a schedule of who does what for dinner and clean-up and cooking and cleaning too.
blessings~

Hello,
Your pictures are great. I love the slideshows. I haven't looked at photobucket now I think I'll have to go take a look at it. I saw your schedule. It is similar to ours. I read Managers of their Home back in November and have been using a schedule since then. It has been so good for us. I think we are getting more done this year with better attitudes since starting with it.
We have four kids ages 11, 9, 5, and 3. I homeschool all of them which is very fun and challenging at times, but we feel the Lord has called us to teach them at home.
I'm on the HIK list and saw your blog there. You can come visit mine (very humble just getting started) at www.kimmelkids4.blogspot.com
