Yessssss  life is good. Our car payment is only 2 months behind now!

  And the electric stays on!!!!    Now we can focus more on learning........

I will peel two bushels of apples for applesauce while the kids do their schoolwork and do

two things at once. I still have to get all the beets canned. Then we have to go to the skateboard park today, so George and Anthony can get in two hours of

excercise with their  friends. Hopefully at some point we can do a quick house clean up. We also have to finish doing all the experiments  in the simple machines kit. Friday the kids made wampum out of beads and string.  The little ones really enjoyed that.  This week we have to make some wire sculptures.

    We looked at the neatest house on Saturday..It was at the end of a dirt road with a 100 acres.  The setting was like out of a dream.The kids loved it, and could run to their hearts content.  Monica could raise collies. We could call it Greenfield farm because it overlooked a huge green hayfield and beautiful hardwood trees in all their autumn glory. We could have a huge garden .  It needed work, but had two houses 25 feet apart which we could connect somehow. It had lots of little sheds for animals and apple trees and grapevines. It was a really good deal,,, If only we had some money and unruined credit...........it's good to dream......
