Struggling To Find Ourselves

Not much new is going on around here the last few weeks.  We are kept busy with appointments and schooling, for the most part.

The neighborhood seems to be caught up with preparations for Winter.  The weather we have been having the last couple of weeks has been downright BEAUTIFUL!!!  But, as this morning which was down to almost 40 degrees reminded us, that probably won’t last too much longer!!!  Of course, it IS almost the middle of October, so I guess we can’t expect it to stay 65 degrees during the day all year, can we?

More later…

I think I just stuck that last personal entry in some categories that it didn’t belong in….*shrugs*…Oh well, I guess I’ll find time one of these days to go back through and recategorize my entries and get them all where they belong.

School for my boy is going pretty well.  Can’t say much about the academic progress, but he is loving it socially, like I knew he would.  Too bad he’s not at school JUST to socialize and that his academics has to fall behind where I have him while he’s there.  We still do quite a bit here at home, just so he will not lose the skills that I’ve already taught him that they aren’t using in the public school yet.  Overall, he’s doing GREAT!!!!

More later…maybe…

Yep, I would have to say that it’s been way to long since I’ve been in here on a regular basis.  Things have been so busy with appointments and everything that I have been letting the time on the computer slide quite a bit more than I probably should.

Has anyone noticed that the days are going by WAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYY to fast?  We are almost into October already.  It’s kind of hard to believe, if you ask me.  It seems like only last month that I was helping some people do their tax returns for the year.

More later…maybe….

Life has been pretty busy around here since school started, as you can probably imagine.  But I think we are getting settled down into a nice routine for the school year, that will work GREAT for us!!!

I have SOOOOOO many things on my list of things that need done that I’ve been having a hard time deciding where to start.  But I HAVE been able to get a few of the things done, here and there, in between appointments and such.

Started rearranging a little bit yesterday.  Nothing too major, just trying to give the house a little bit different feel.  I will probably work on it some more here shortly, as well as get the washing machine going again.

More later….Maybe.

I’m here again, but not quite as soon as I was hoping.  But, at least, I’m here!!!

Things are going okay here.

School started a couple of weeks ago for my boy.  He is enjoying it, though I get the distinct impression that there are days when he is bored with the schoolwork itself.  He LOVES P.E., and Music, and recess, though….and he has been eating ALL of his lunches, at least part of the days, according to him.

More later, maybe….

Yep, the public school that my son goes to started last Thursday.  He seems to be enjoying it, though we aren’t real used to the earlier mornings yet.

Looks like rain today.  We can use a little bit, though, because it’s been a week or more since we got a GOOD rain last.

Not much going on here today.  I’m getting some computer work done, as well as some miscellaneous cleaning around the house, and maybe even a bit of reading or something for a bit.  Already took a walk, though it was shorter this morning because of the threat of rain.  Might just take another one later, though.

More later….

Life around here has been….okay….lately.  Things have been busy, with appointments and everything else going on.  School will be starting in about 2 weeks, so that will make it seem like it’s even busier.

We’ve been reading quite a bit the last few weeks, too, whenever we get the chance.  I’ve been reading my Bible most days.  I finished the book of Matthew today.  I’ve also been reading at bedtime too.  Looks like we are going to have a pretty good list of books that we’ve read in 2008!!!

Other things are going okay.  Court, lawyers, appointments…you know…the regular things going on.  What can we say?  Life is life, I guess, and this is our’s right now.

Everyone is doing okay, though.

More later.

Well, public school starts again in the first half of August.  Can you believe that?  If the tend for public schools keeps going like it is now, they will be getting out of school on May 24th and starting the new school year on May 25th.  And there are some that don’t understand why I want to home school!!!…*shakes her head*  Oh, and with lunches, can you believe we are looking at approximately $450 for the cost of school?  I guess it’s a GOOD thing I don’t plan on him eating breakfast at school much at this point, huh, because that would be about another $175 or so.  And to think that I could home school him for SOOOOOOOO much less at this point!!!….He is looking forward to going back to school, kind of, I think…even though it wreaks havoc in our lives with the mental health appointments and everything else going on…*shrugs*….Oh well, it’s what we have to do right now, so we’ll do it and make the best of it that we can.
