We’re using that next year, too, only we’re going to do the parent-graded version. Dh has a degree in chemistry. I’m a little nervous about it because dh has such a hectic work schedule (so it’s easy for things to get overlooked), but the cost savings decided it for us. I’m excited about it, though, because I’ve read so many good things about her classes. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Selkie Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Good morning! Happy March! Looking at the extended forecast, we have about two more weeks of very cold temps and then it is going to warm up above freezing. I am counting down the days! school w/dd make menu plan and shopping list give dogs Heartgard a little bit of office work (print out a few things, do some filing, remember to switch one of our credit cards over to paperless billing) check how much grain we have on hand get Thai food for lunch stop at Target for a couple things *remember to bring gift cards* Natural Grocers pick up a few bags of grain - or maybe I'll have the boys get it tomorrow on their way down come home, do evening chores dinner: leftovers read, relax, take sauna, & watch a show or two tonight 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKL Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Howdy! I got my last Feb 28 report out just before midnight, so today I have to work on the ones that are due "end of year + 60," plus a few others. I'm feeling pretty good about work at the moment. Tonight is my kid's first performance of her last show with her gymnastics team. She ages out after this year. Kid 1 up to study. Went back to bed. Kid 2 woke herself up, because I slept through my alarm. Kids off to the school bus on time, yay! 7th grade is 2/3 done! Quick house cleaning stuff - kitchen, bathrooms. Checked social media, emails, news. To do: Lots of work reports. Shower / hair wash - the earlier the better. Pack performance clothes in the car. Pick kids up from bowling, grab drive-thru and drive to college for performance / gymnastics meet (we are spectators at the meet). Whatever else gets done. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pink and Green Mom Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Hopeistheword, yes - that is what I'm signing DS14 up for. Unfortunately I top out at 5th grade science (and DH is no help) so no parent graded options for me here. 🤣 I am looking into doing an honors chem class here at a co-op in our new location, but I'm not sure if the co-op is going to be a good fit so I'm keeping my options open. Or making too much out of this. Depends who you ask... 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MysteryJen Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Good morning! I am supposed to get tires today for one car. Apparently, the other car will need them soon as well. Awesome. So my day is a little wonky. At least it is supposed to be beautiful today, snow and cold tomorrow. coffee/paper leave to get tires wait somewhere or drive elsewhere if they don't have them do some writing and reading while I wait home at some point to check in with kids do some chores I am not going to deal with dinner tonight Have a great day! 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted March 1, 2019 Author Share Posted March 1, 2019 (edited) I just got asked to tutor again by a random lady who came up to me in Starbucks. (I don't have to advertise. Just coffee shop school my daughter.) She wants me to tutor her fifth grade daughter in math. I'm in a panic! Dd says that I can do this.

MysteryJen Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Well, that was a dumb morning. Went to the wrong Costco first. Then drove to the next one. They have the tires- Hallelujah! Get halfway through a cup of coffee to find out- sorry, a used car with weird aftermarket rims need different tires, get a refund. They don't have the right ones and they are more expensive. No idea when they will get them. And the tires we have are fine for a while (thanks dealership for the different information on that), just not great on snow. Dh not available. Turns out he is in an interview- What?? I didn't know that... So, trip to Costco, no tires, not even ordered. Dh slightly irritated with me- but honestly- tell me if I can't reach you before you leave in the morning when I have to make a big $$ decision. Sigh, so now I am at home. I am going to clean and do laundry to try to regain a little productivity. 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selkie Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Change of plans. There goes my dream of Thai food... Dd has a few unfinished assignments for an online class that absolutely have to get turned in today (why she didn't figure this out before we made other plans, I have no clue). So she is going to stay home and get her work done and we have moved our Target/Thai plans to tomorrow. Meanwhile, dh needs me to run into town and go to the bank. And since we're not going to Natural Grocers, I'm facing the dreaded Friday-afternoon-when-the-store-is-packed-Walmart-shopping-trip. Ugh. I was just at the bank and Walmart yesterday and do not feeling like going back. 😐 Dinner is going to be tacos, rice, and slaw. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScoutTN Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Dropped off kids and food. Got in and out of Walmart (just the small neighborhood market, not the huge superstore!) and home in good time. For now, I am steadfastly ignoring a heap of laundry that needs to be folded and the folded stacks on the sofa that need to be put away. Not going to tidy Ds' room. Toodling around the web doing some planning research for next year. Next up: watch a webinar and heat up some dinner. Chx and white bean chili, yumm! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScoutTN Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 (edited) Watched Angelina Stanford's class. Made brownies. Had a yummy dinner. Ate a brownie with ice cream. My body will not be happy tomorrow, but it was SO delicious! Signed Ds up for some fun stuff at our Nature Center. Working on Spring Break plans next. Day trip to the Rocket ctr. in Huntsville, breakfast at Waffle House followed by trip to McKay, a day hiking at the park, a day to sleep late and do nothing, a day for dd to hang out with friends, a Sundy school party, another trip to see the Impressionist exhibit that we saw today, a few hours to clean the house and pay bills. Mostly waiting for Dh and Dd to get home. Tired of my empty house. I rather like it during the day, but not at night.
