:hurray: Hope all is well in your neck of the woods. Miss you!

You're too funny. I shall do my best to keep my snarky thoughts to myself. ;p

Yes, if I purchase one more book on writing my head will explode. :)

A book for part of computer science next year. :) http://www.bookdepository.com/Edexcel-IGCSE-ICT-Student-Roger-Crawford/9780435044114

I don't know. I would do a search on the high school board. I think you could do them concurrently. I think all the teaching companies DVDs come with a course companion that might be helpful in your planning.

If you planning on doing your own Great Books study you might look into The Aeneid lecture as well. It's also on sale. ;)

You bet, babe. I hope you figured out a workable solution.

Why, yes, I did change my avatar! :D One can never too much of Gerard.

Yes, the sunshine yesterday was wonderful. The dog was able to sit out on the back deck for more than simply five minutes. I had forgotten about the mushiness after the snow melts however.

How funny! I do that too. We finished reading Robin Hood just before the end of school, plus we have woods in our yard, so it seemed fitting. I'll probably transform back into a lion before the end of the summer though ;)

Hey you! Love the smiley. Hope things are going well for you.

You're quite witty tonight!! Exposing them......hahahaha.

Several accident or broken down vehicles had traffic back up literally for miles... No place to turn around, we never made it to our destination. There's a life analogy in there somewhere.

Gretchen, how great you were thinking of us. Oh my, our day didn't go as planned, but we arrived home safely. Even though it wasn't planned I think it went exactly as it was supposed to, which was not our plan. I'm delirious.

I about blew coffee out of my nose over your hair comment. I agree and you made me giggle too.

You sneaking around in the middle of the night? Okay I know 11:30 isn't the middle of the night but... hope you have a wonderful Friday.

1am! Girl, I hope you got some sleep. I'm loving the AC book. We will probably finish it next week. I'm planning on buying the rest of the Foster books now. I think it's a nice overview of history for this age.

HUGS, I hope you do okay with your son leaving. What a wonderful opportunity, but... (HUGS)

Nerd Herd fan club. I snort laughed when I read that. Does that make me a nerd? My son gets annoyed when we go to Best Buy and I tell him it looks just like a Buy More. :)

Yes, men on horses with swords, get me every time. :)

Anyway, on the subject of blogs, I chose blogspot because it was easier to upload photos and add gadgets. I had homeschool blogger before but didn't like the set up. I didn't know about the other, Xanga and wordpress at the time. Blogger is very simple, I'm not very techno savvy, but feel like I can navigate around there easily.

Is this distracting too? Wait I'm supposed to be writing aren't I?

I'm loving you new gold trophy! It looks so beautiful on you.

I love what you said about NW Florida. My dh and I are beach people, which is weird because we both grew up in the midwest. We are one hour from the beach now, when the hurricanes don't keep us away, and we have a yard full of huge pine trees, they are lovely.

I'm a flip flop gal too. I was almost in tears this week thinking I might have to dig out a pair of socks.
