I haven't blogged in awhile as it appears that our good computer bit the dust. Adam's working on repairing it because he's pretty good with those kind of things and in the mean time, I've got to use the older, slower computer. And sometimes when you type something on it, you have to wait an entire minute for the words to show up. And some of the keys don't work well and some not at all. :) One day, he'll get to work on fixing this one up better, too, so we can use it for the kids computer.
In the past few weeks not much has been going on. We went to the MidWest Homeschool Convention in Cincinnati. It was WONDERFUL! It was Adam's first convention. He seemed to like it. We got some really great school stuff for next year. Nearly everything was already picked out before we got to the convention, I had very few impulse buys. :) And I definitely stayed with my budget. That was hard to do because there was so many WONDERFUL items there. I loved it!
Adam's been on a crazy work schedule this past week. He works 12 hour night shifts and then sleeps all morning. He only has a little bit of time in the afternoon to hang out with us. Fortunately, it's a very temporary thing and next week he'll be back to the same day shift he's been working.
Some friends of ours moved away this week. Adisson was particularly close to the little boys so he's sad to see them go. I am too, of course, because I don't have many IRL friends. :( The Army life leads to friends moving away and that's what has happened with nearly all of my friends....which is too bad. I hope we're going to be moving soon, but I don't know. I've been praying something will work out and we'll get another assignment to somewhere else, but there's not a lot of jobs for Adam in the Army with his current job and rank. It's definitely been trying, but I just keep praying.
Not too much else is going on. I'm hoping to start working on school plans for next year. I'm trying to figure out what is the best way to do things and I'm working on a few different ideas. I sometimes wonder how I'll be able to come up with two years of lesson plans when Zander is ready to start school, but I'm reminded that there are countless numbers of homeschooling mama's who plan out lessons for way more than two kids each year. :) I'm sure I'll manage.
More later I'm sure....
