Monday, Monday......

With homeschool ~ we are "managing" to keep busy!  Our studies have been whittled down some to a more manageable list.  We are listening to "Drive By Church History"~very interesting if you want to know how everything really started and the why's behind some of the traditions of men (lots aren't Biblical), Proverbs Study, Geometry, Ancient Rome, Study & Memory Skills, Zoology.

Our afternoons are filled with filled with craft projects, cleaning up craft messes, adding projects, etc.  We've got our new fair books, entry forms, and cards to label all our projects.  We keep finding things that aren't finished or that we wanted to do for this year ~ so we have to access what can easily be accomplished between now and Friday next week.  Then we start on next years projects!
