Wheres Toto Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Too many more posts left to pad to the end. Oh well, the only advantage of being on the east coast is I tend to be one of the first on here in the morning. Hump day it is. Three classes then school with my kids then tutoring then home to relax. I have to swing by the store on my way in this morning so need to get in gear about 15 minutes earlier than usual. I need some supplies for today's classes. Looks like dd may have trouble doing school independently. She has in the past but seems to be too much independence at this point. We're trying some new things and if that doesn't work she'll be sitting at the side of my classroom working on school while I teach. It's weird because it's not that she needs help doing the work (except math sometimes), she just can't seem to sit down and do it. We are pretty sure she has adhd, so that could be part of the problem. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critterfixer Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 I will also be baking banana bread sometime today. I have a lot of bananas, and Krissi says, but my art teacher's DH isn't doing well, and I think she needs some banana bread. In the South, it's usually banana pudding, but bread is more portable. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan in TN Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Good morning! Yesterday I remembered a place we would go camping when I was very little - 4 or 5yo? Madeline Island in Wisconsin. I remember the excitement of taking a ferry to the island, and picking wild blueberries, and walking my puppy. There was a little general store and my dad would buy me a round tin of fruit candies. Aldi this morning. Tonight we'll eat Greek at church, and then the children's choir rehearses for Sunday's concert with the singer. We don't have a good music track for practicing, but I guess we will make due. Coffee! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renai Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 I have one more ESL class to teach (one cancelled at the last minute, which is why I'm HERE), then I really need to figure out a teaching schedule for next year. I'm usually pretty close, or already have, a fall schedule out by now, but this time I'm stuck. One would think that teaching from home would make things easier. Hopefully, hump day will help me get over this hump. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slache Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Mary just got her birthday gifts from MIL. So, a few years ago she wanted to get Mary barbies but she already had several so I suggested the African American one and MIL completely flipped out because Mary's not AA. We never really got on the same page, my point was just that they all look the same so send something different. AA, redhead, whatever, just not another blond. She sent a blond one. Whatever. Today Mary opened Hispanic beauty and the beast. Ok. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 It's time to start ordering end-of--school-year books and I haven't even started a list yet. Ds23 graduated a year ago, so technically he doesn't get any. But. That's a hard one. I suppose it's OK to acknowledge that he has moved on to another stage of life.

My new-to-me car doesn't have good hand brake. I have to yank it all the way up to make sure it STAYS. One night, we all went to the grocery store, and while inside the intercom came on saying the person with license plate #xxxx please go to the front. I hadn't even memorize my plate number yet, but knew it was my car and that it had rolled backwards. It was sitting in the middle of the parking lot, which is also the entrance to the store at the stoplight. Sigh.

Susan in TN Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 I was at children's choir. It went pretty well. The Concert Singer is very personable and super good with kids, so that was all good. I handed in the Good Friday music with all the bowings. We are now essentially done with history, writing, and science for the year. Some Students are a little behind on literature, and others are asking for other things to read. Tomorrow they will have to try to label a world map from memory with the primary countries and seas we studied in history and the continents and oceans, and finish copying their final chreias onto regular paper and read aloud to everyone. I have a few more weeks worth of story time books I want to read, and not sure after that. Right now we're reading The King's Fifth by Scott O'Dell, and it's a bit of a slog to get through. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
