Magniflorious Homeschool Life

 Can y'all believe another December is knocking at the door? I can't. Some days feel like they drag on and on. But come the fall/winter holiday season and the days fly by faster than you can blink! I'm almost ready for Christmas, though, and much further ahead than I was last year. I'm actually excited and looking forward to Christmas this year. Last year, I was just functioning and struggling to adjust to annoying life changes. I think we all were to some extent.  via GIPHY (I love Godzilla. And while this guy survives no matter how he lands, I sometimes struggle. What about y'all? Godzilla fans? Strugglers? 😅) I'm not going to keep you a long time today. We started Geometry today and Ro is enjoying it, as I kind of expected. For some reason, if you struggle in Algebra in our family, Geometry tends to be your friends. I don't know how that makes any kind of sense, but it is what it is. 😄 A Breath of Hope And now for a breath of hope from the Bible...  Th

 Magniflorious Private Home School Academy blog has a new home. We'll give Blogger a go for a while. Hopefully, this host doesn't start creating ad posts at random and sharing them as blog posts on my blog. :/ I'm going to look for the positives and do my best to keep this blog going as long as I can. It's still in progress so I hope you'll bear with me while I keep adding elements.    via GIPHY  So What's New? Besides this blog's new home and a new book in the works for me, my husband is getting ready to start a new job. Transitions are always difficult, so please keep us in your prayers.  So far, we haven't had even one meeting of our mother/daughter club this year. Between people fighting yuckies and unexpected errands, it's been difficult for us to get together but we do keep trying.  A Breath of Hope  And now for a breath of hope from the Bible Scriptures taken from The Scriptures 2009 - photo is linked to their website ***** As always, we do n
