Summer 2013

I can not believe that summer is coming to a close!

The big new house is wonderful.  It has been so fantastic to have family nearby.  Its not nearly as stressful to figure out when to go to the store or go for a run.  My husband started a new job and I think that has brought a lot of peace to our home as well since his hours are better.

Montessori courses are over for the summer but I don't feel all that free.  I have a lot of school work to be completed over the school year.  Definitely feeling overwhelmed when I think of it as a whole.  I am trying to think of small goals for myself and then hopefully it will feel a little less overwhelming.  I keep pecking away at things but nothing actually gets done.  The printer runs out of ink, I have to pick up the kids, get someone a glass of milk or I'm just too tired to stay awake, ALL ARE JUST EXCUSES.  Mostly I've been working on these albums.  Albums are a book of lessons with a description of the lesson along with pictures.  I've formatted the pictures for Practical Life and half of Language, Geography is done.  I have the pictures for the remaining albums, Math and Sensorial, but I have to format them.  Plus, write an introduction for all five.  Its really a lot of busy work though and I think I should take a break from that stuff which I can do late at night half awake during the school year.  I think I am going to change gears and apply myself to my philosophy papers.

On to philosophy....
