Wow! Senior Year Has Been and Gone

 For months, apparently, I forgot I posted here. To be fair, though, senior year was tough for our youngest in some ways which we hadn't really had to deal with while teaching the other two. Add to that my increasingly scattered mind, too many changes to keep track of, and going back to work at the sewing shop, and there was no way I was going to remember to post here. But we did manage to work through senior year successfully and our young woman is learning how to make her way in the adult realm. 


We were supposed to go get her senior pictures in a little town just southwest of us, but we were never able to do it. I hate that life kept getting in the way. 

She also requested a graduation tassel, and that hasn't happened yet, but I'm taking care of that today. She doesn't really ask for much. 

I also still need to get her final report card, transcript and diploma printed out. Seriously, y'all, this year was a doozy if ever there was one! 

We both so relieved to be done with school, though I will confess I'll miss the learning time. We were reading through a history book on the Reformation and I learned so much. She even laughed at a few points. The person who put the book together added some very interesting trivia which made the reading less dry and more entertaining. Much like the following memes, which I'll share to hopefully make you smile or laugh. My intention is to share some things I found funny. If you disagree, that's totally OK. Please be courteous in the comments if you post something.






I'm not sure what will happen to this blog, but I'm leaning toward sharing interesting things I learn. Who knows? I may find something which would be useful in a lesson. Posts will be sporadic, I'm fairly certain. We'll see. 

My next post might include a few highlights from her senior year. I do like to go back through posts and remember what we did. 

Thanks for keep up with us as we finished out our final year of homeschooling. I know these constant posts made it difficult for everyone. πŸ˜… 

See y'all next time!

Coming to the End of a Year

 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? πŸ˜…) 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. πŸ˜„ A Breath of Hope And now for a breath of hope from the Bible...  Th...

A New Season is Here!

 Yep. It's time for another blog post. And even though I knew it was coming, I'm late posting it anyway. Will I ever be on time? *sigh*  via GIPHY Our Crazy Year So Far My hope was to have this prepped, ready to go by yesterday evening. Here's the rundown of what's been happening in our family since the turn of the new year.  First week of January - husband gets laid off from most lucrative job he's ever had Within days - oldest daughter is in her first major wreck (as a passenger and while far enough away from home we couldn't actually get there to be with her...thankfully, she and her friends were ok after some time had passed) The next week - hitherto unplanned trip to visit with family who are close to where oldest daughter is staying so we can pick her up when she's ready to come home the next week - pick up oldest daughter and head home the following day First week of February - husband surrenders to the ministry The very next morning - we learn husban...

Welcoming the New Year - 2022

 Welcome back to the blog! I've been contemplating how useful (or rather how not-so-useful) my latest posts have been. Since it seems I've been running out of things to share and no one else in our family is really on board with this, I am either going to drop my posts back to once a month and have this go out more like a newsletter, or just drop it entirely. More on that... New Year, New Challenges Everyone, or most people, make resolutions they seek to carry out over the course of the coming year. I don't usually do that because my goals are always the same: feed my relationship with my Lord, glorify Him with my life in all ways, help those around me who have a need.  This year, our family is starting out with a challenge. John is part of a group study called Soul-con which encourages men to be who they were created to be in the Lord, mind-body-soul. There is a program for women that purports itself as the same sort of thing. However, the study the men participate in goes...
