Now what does this tell me about the last month of HS other than I must NOT have enough to think about. Since I know this isn't the case I will continue to wonder....

THIS WEEK Gym for the first time. As usual I am directionally inept. Lost there and back so The extra time I planned in to travel appreciated. We have the Philharmonic coming up and hope to start violin wihtin the next two weeks.

I have been extremely tired!!

Another week down and I am still surviving

No children are missing either. However I am going to unlist my phone number so my daughter Gigi cannot call me while I am attempting to blog!!!!! She will not let me get off the phone. So now should I hang up on her? What would you do?

Now for the children at home with me all week long--Our tadpoles turned into lovely little frogs and were freed yesterday. It was hard to keep them contained once their legs developed and to escaped on me before I could send them to a better home. Our next project is going to be biomes. Specifically I want to look at deciduous and coniferous forests and have some great plant experiments planned.

The girls are still trying to figure out what they can get away wiht and I am still trying to figure out if I am covering enough material. Part of me wishes I had the money to order the popular curricullums the other doesn't want to spend thousands even if I had it.....I spent hours on the net a couple days back ordering every free item I could from the EPA, Nasa, and a plethora of other agencies. Hopefully with this in addition to all the great sites I have found my children's education is going to be well rounded. We plan on starting violin and girls scouts next month. then whey do I continue to doubt myself??? It has to be all of ,my traditional schooling that is causeing my doubts.

Am I insane???

Well it has been 10 days (THAT"S IT????) and we have watched tadpoles turn into frogs, covered nouns, short and long vowels.........and a shit load of other stuff. I am still finding my way here and I go to bed wondering if I will find it. My table is already covered wiht tomorrows lessons and like any new homeschooler I wonderi if I am doing it rigth. DH is no support, And to top it off I am expecting AGAIN!!! Trenton will only be 18 months when the next addition joins us. I just feel like there is so much to do and although I am =making lists, I am so forgettful! Please tell me this is normal. My four MUST had add becasue she just wants to run around with my tow while we try to learn. T-da is an angle but needs hisloves on a regular basis. And even thoguh the girls have chores before they get free time I am constantly having to turn the darn tv off! It is a menace. Thank God the sattalite isn't woriking so we will HAVE to watch the video on Ampjhibians becasue even thoug we have a couple tadpoles wiht just back legs, one with the front legs but a tail, two are definite frogs and they want to go home...... Wehy buy when nature provides?

Day number 3--our first week is almost finished

I have almost made it! We have been adjusting to school at home and I am still learning how my children learn. Our first day was LONG because we needed to organize and even after all the reading I have done, I was not prepared for the reality of homeschooling. Yesterday went well and today went even better with us finishing right after lunch. Of course I am trying to incorporate A LOT into their day and know I need to relax a bit but not until I am sure they are challenged.

This morning Dennis left us a beautiful wolf spider wiht spiderlings on the dining room table. After we were done screaming we actually appreciated how beautiful they are. Now what am I going to do with it, LOL
