DH leaves tomorrow

DH leaves tomorrow for TX. He will start the new job on Monday. The kids and I will stay here and wait until we hear about the house we put an offer in on. If we hear in the next two weeks then I will see DH at closing. If we don't I plan on heading down there in about 14 days to go house hunting again.

DS is doing very well in school. His Pre-Algebra is moving right along. He is doing Analytical Grammar for his grammar program and as much as he fusses when I tell him it is grammar time he is cruising right along. We are currently reading MVP by Douglas Evans. It is a great story about a boy on an adventure around the world in less than 40 days. There are wonderful references to geography and history. It is peeking DS's interests......shhhh don't tell him he is learning. We will start our Geography course on Monday. I am excited to start that as I was lucky enought to hear Cindy Wiggers speak from www.geomatters.com last April and bought her program. She is a fabulous geography source. DS will also be assigned a writing project next week. I think we will be having him write a poem. I will hopefully post here when it is completed.

I am contemplating purchasing Sonlight curriculum for us. I need the Instuctor's Guide. I have all the History stuff here I just don't seem to be able to put it together for lessons. I think it will be money well spent plus, it will help me when it comes to deciding whether or not I will use it when I pull dd home.

I am in book 3 of the Stephenie Meyer's books. I can't put them down. I will probably finish Eclipse tonight and move on to Breaking Dawn tomorrow. The books in my opinion will never be classics but they are fun reads and I have to tell you...if there is anyone out there that doesn't wish that Edward was "their man" they are just PLAIN INSANE.

I hope to write more frequently now.....to keep everyone posted. I also hope to post pics and such later on......I have to figure out how to do that......

Until next time....
