Pushhhhhhhhhhh
August 25, 2007 Homeschooling, Play Hard No CommentsHehehe, that title reminds me of having a baby, even though that’s not what I am planning to write about. I am planning to write about writing lesson plans. I really want to push through and finish today, so I can enjoy Sunday without having to worry about finishing it up. I had wanted to have more than the one day, but it didn’t work that way. Instead I have them a bit over half done, I’m considering whether or not Botox for migraines is really a good idea, and if that child over there <—- emits one more blood curdling shriek, I. just. may. snap.
BUT! Fortunately for all of us, it is almost quiet time, and then….oh yes, then I will plan.
AND oh! More excitement. We have/had out first football games this weekend, and I will have pictures for you later!

Paid in Full
August 22, 2007 Homeschooling, Stuff to Buy 2 CommentsI’ve been watching something happen that has been pretty amazing. When I decided to go ahead and bump us back to a full CM school experience, I knew it would cost money, and probably a substantial amount. I decided what I wanted and then I gasped at the amount of money it was going to cost, and had a real crisis of faith. I thought about it for awhile, and then I said “God pays His bills”, and I clicked the submit order button. I did wait until I had enough in paypal to pay for the first major purchase, which happened to be LLATL (times 3 students). Then I started looking for the rest of what we needed. I figured I might end up having to put some of it on a low interest credit card, but that it was worth it.
And then I watched in amazement as God did exactly what I had said He would do. It was incredible to watch, and it gave me goosebumps as I watched payment after payment roll into replenish that paypal account. I ordered the materials for composer and artist study, and I got notices from paypal that I had received money. In almost the exact amount I had spent, ya’ll. It was crazy.
Now, I do still need a few items, things I’ll pick up in town and not order online, mostly art supplies. I”ll end up putting those on credit cards, because I still don’t have a paypal debit card. But there is money in paypal to cover the expense. Now don’t read more into this than I am saying. There have been years where I’ve needed to compare credit cards and worry about interest rates and just such as this. But this year? School is paid in full.
