I have grand plans to actually write things on this blog this week. I have lots of stuff I'd like to write about homeschooling, as well as some things about writing and even some things I've learned from God's word. Not to mention, I'd like to post pictures of my latest tea party finds. However, my schedule is rather wild at the moment so I'll let you know what I'm up to and promise to actually write things here as I can find a moment.
Yesterday was our annual testing day. Afterwards, we went out to eat according to our annual tradition. My daughter is big on traditions! We went to Midtown Sundries and weren't overly impressed. Their food used to be a lot better than it is currently. After lunch we headed to the mall to buy some spring/ summer clothes for the kids. We've reached the official end of our school year, but each of the kids has a few minor details to finish and my son will probably continue his math and Spanish over the summer, though not necessarily daily. Last night both kids had ball games. Fortunately, they were both on the home fields and at different times.
Today my son works for a few hours and my daughter and I will go to that store that I dislike intensely, the one that begins with a big, fat "W". It can't be avoided, unfortunately. Tonight my son has a baseball game.
Tomorrow, my daughter and I have to return to the mall while my son works. We didn't realize that those cool coupons we wanted to use don't go into effect until tomorrow. We also have a graduation with accompanying party to attend tomorrow evening.
Friday my Aunt Ellen comes into town. We love Aunt Ellen so this will be a treat. Friday evening I plan to take my friend, Melissa, out to eat for her birthday dinner.
Saturday and Sunday involve the usual catch up and two baseball games for my son. I may also take my daughter and friends to the local amusement park. We bought season's passes and so did several of her friends. Already, I've discovered that to be a very wise thing to do for this year!
In between all of this I'm supposed to be working on my next curriculum, finishing up some other writing projects, and preparing for my upcoming trip to the Denver homeschool convention. Occasionally, it might be nice to clean the house too! Hopefully, next week will slow down a smidgen. I don't know how we managed to schedule everything within this one week.
All that to say, stay tuned for some great posts...shortly.

I'm getting tired just reading that!
Wow - you have a busy week ahead! That's exciting that you are traveling to Denver -I have always wanted to visit. And I'm looking forward to your tea party posts as well. :)
So what are you doing in your free time? haha. Just remember, this too shall pass and then we'll have the lazy days of summer.
Can't wait to read all your posts - once you get some time!
You might enjoy stopping in for tea at The House of Commons in Denver while you are here for your conference. I don't know where the conference is, but the tea room is downtown. It isn't a foofy place, but the owner is from Yorkshire and a delight. The scones are always fresh and delicious. (It's my little place to retreat to whenever I have a little time to myself.)
