Renai Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I have enjoyed so much reading about kittens, hula, honorary Texans, Grand Poobahs, wisdom teeth drugs, crazy driving stories, diagnosing people, song/movie/tv references, booya/booyah, and Nanâ¤ï¸. Wow. I'm impressed. You passed the test. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gentlemommy Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Well, I must say, it was highly entertaining and quite easy to accomplish while ignoring the schooling of children, cleaning of house, and cooking of meals. 😳 Actually, today I told the kids we were going to play a new game called 'salon'. I was the customer, who had to do important 'work' on her iPad, and they were to rub my feet and neck. They quite liked the game, and kept it going by insisting the ma'am (what they call customers lol) sit down and finish her work while they made dinner. We had salad, avocado, and hard boiled eggs. I'm calling that home EC, and a homeschool win. I also told them I'd pay them $.10 per weed that they pulled from the garden beds, and they racked up more than $30! 😣 Oops. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swellmomma Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 cue heebee jeebee dance SO there I was minding my own business, cleaning out the cesspool that is my boy's bedroom, when I notice one of the huge spiders currently infesting my house crawling down the front of my shirt. I am extremely phobic of spiders. Can't scream because dd7 is asleep in the room ajoining the the boys. Use a dirty to sock to squish it, or so I think, get up from floor and look under sock no spider, look around me, it is now crawling up the back of my leg. jump up and down and use another sock to brush it off. Run from bedroom vowing to let them keep it a mess, and go have a shower. My kids are laughing at me that I needed to shower in the middle of the night because a spider crawled on me. They just don't get it, those things are nasty. My heart is still racing and I am starting to feel sick to my stomach due to the surge of cortisol (or could be the adrenaline- dr's aren't sure which one is making me physically ill when I get stressed, but if I get a surge like that I get sick). *shudder* 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Another Lynn Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 My kids have been wild today so I forbid screens and made them clean the house. When Nan's nighttime caregiver came, I offered her the kids. She laughed like I was making a joke. Go Texasmama! Nan sat up and asked for Dr. Pepper yesterday. Today, she ate a quarter of a banana. :) Go Nan!! That's amazing!

He wants to do Miquon and I found this pre-miquon book for free online and printed it out. He thinks it's great. I'll link it when I turn the computer on. I'm buying the RightStart games kit next paycheck. That seems like a great way to exercise his brain without constantly progressing in difficulty. He's very impressive in his reading and writing abilities, but his math skills are pretty blah. He loves numbers and concepts, but he's not one of those kids that should have a math curriculum at this age. If I were to buy a curriculum it would have been RightStart A or MUS Primer because those two are not dependent on mastery, they're just exposure. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
