I’m not sure why I hadn’t blogged about this before, ’cause it’s not like it happened yesterday….LOL!! In September, I took Boo to the public school for the Fall Standardized Tests. (We are not required to do them where we live; however, I didn’t think it would do any harm….and it gives me an [...]

Today’s writing prompt was: What toy do you think you will still like when you are an adult? Why? Boo’s Answer: Make-up is what I think I will like. Why? It makes you look gorgus. So you can get a boyfriend easyer. So you can be happy with who you are. (All spelling and grammer [...]

At lunch this afternoon, Sassy Sissy says to Boo, “You were such a cute baby. **pause** What happened?” Without missing a beat, Boo tilts her head, and says, “You know, I have wondered the very same thing, myself.” KA-PLOW!! She’s been shut down!

My Hubby’s side ”thing” is mowing lawns. Last year, he took the kids with him and was teaching them the ropes. Boo was 8 and pretty small – – so he didn’t put her on the rider he bought last year. (In order to make it stop, you had to push – – HARD – – [...]

Real Life Learning….

Humans….we’re a funny creature….. Something occurred to me today……actually, to be honest,quite a few somethings, occurred to me today. I am always amazed at how people react in certain situations. Are they more positive based – – more negative based – – or more realistic based? We are emotional creatures – – and no matter [...]

Learning happens….even when you least expect it……..at the grocery store, Taco Bell, and Wal-Mart, for Pete’s Sake. Today Boo learned how to handle conflict, evaluate problems and make decisions. That kind of learning is emotionally draining……so, in an attempt to cope, I turned to “Tuesdays with Morrie.” Was I smoking crack? Seriously. Who in the [...]

Boo loves the idea of only having four days of school – – does that mean the SAME four days? Well, for me it did – – until Monday. I had oral surgery on Monday, in a city about an hour and a half away. The last time I was there (to remove stitches), school [...]
Notes from 01.04.08
Posted in Boo, Family Life, FREE STUFF, Resources, tagged FREE STUFF, Homeschool, Homeschooling, Resources on January 5, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Thursday night (01.03.08), Boo complained that her hip was hurting. I told her to rest and let me know how she felt in the morning. Since we don’t have school on Friday (provided that all work gets done during the week), I figured that she would miraculously get better in the morning. During the night, [...]
