Top Ten Ways to tell that school is almost out:
10) Several subjects are completed, leaving only the ones that were put off and nobody really likes.
9) Mom ignores the excess reading and piano playing in place of schoolwork (not entirely)
8) Mom is thinking about how much more time we'll have to clean and declutter and has a plan in place!
7) Summer schedule is picking up, so busyness just shifts directions.
6) It's stinkin' hot outside!
5) Everyone is counting down the hours (although it's really about finishing the curriculum. hahahahaha).
4) Next year's schedule is nearly figured out (except for what isn't).
3) Mom is anxious to completely clear off the shelves and get rid of some school books to make room for the new (a daunting, emotional task).
2) First camp is in a month!
And the number one reason...(drumroll, please)
1) Did I mention new books?
Class of 2018

you are amazing. You already have all sorts of projects going I am thinking about maybe doing later.
ReplyDeleteThank you, but would it be rude to eyeroll at you? You are the amazing one, my friend.
ReplyDeleteI remember avoiding school.;)
ReplyDeleteHow many camps do you have for the kids?
What new books have you found?
One camp for Mr. Al and one for Miss Daisy.
ReplyDeleteNew books...looking at James Stobaugh's Literature and History programs (www.forsuchatimeasthis.com), a couple things from Castle Heights press, and a few other things. Some of the new has already been purchased (My Father's World for Miss Rose, Mystery of History II for Miss D, Progeny Press Guides, etc.), but there is no space on the shelves for them! Gotta move the old out!
