Keeping School Time

Work is keeping me busy, but I am happy to say that I have been able to keep our school time intact.  I made it a priority this year and let my manager know that I will still work hard and long, but I WILL NOT work during the morning hours that are set aside for school.  From time to time we have started a little late or had to skip a nature walk, but I have not missed a day or skipped some things because of work. 

I already planned an October Fall Break into our schedule to give me some relief in this crazy month.  I took it early because my husband is having some unexpected health issues.  He suddenly developed high blood pressure with no history and no other indicators.  We have ruled out any heart issues and the focus is now on his kidneys.  We are waiting for test results.  We have resumed school this week while we wait.

Prayers of family and friends are keeping us lifted up.  I am tired physically and emotionally, but know this pace is short term.  It won't be long before we are into the fun of the holidays and this work load is behind me.  And I know that my husband will be well in God's hands.

Tell everyone what you would do if you were on WifeSwap! What qualities about your family would you want others to share in?

Oct. 14, 2006 - How is your husband doing? Did you get any news?

Let us know if you need prayers. I'll be praying anyway that it's a minor thing, easily taken care of.

Will you let me know if you wish to read either The Egyptian Book of the Dead or The Iliad with the Great Books Reading Partnership? I'm updating the Reading Partner list and your input would be greatly appreciated!
