Critterfixer Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Morning, Accountables! Closing in on the end of May. We school during the summer (it's always so hot here, why not?) but still, I'm looking forward to about three weeks off just to take a good break. We just took one week off, but that was sort of unplanned. But I'm thinking second week of June to fourth of July or something like that. Today's goals: House: cat boxes, laundry, dishes, maybe plant a few more tomatoes and peppers School: schedules, and plan out that break as to what I want to add for summer term if anything. Probably do want to add more reading and writing. Cooking: chicken and rice, broccoli, lemon cake Writing: 2,000 words in my draft, keep up with my writing cabin, get the data entered into our cabin spreadsheet, Beta reading and notes for one person, second pass read for the second and notes. Reading: Finishing one book today. I really needed to work on my stack, but there were books available with Libby that I wanted to read. So here we are again with probably four books getting read at the same time. I've read more this last six months than the previous six months, but it's not because I had nothing to do! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Critterfixer Posted May 18, 2020 Author Share Posted May 18, 2020 Morning! It's a sunny one. I expect the grass will be ten feet tall by the weekend. Today's goals: House: cat boxes, dishes, laundry, bed, bath, linens School: regular. I think we are going to finish up this particular math unit and then take our summer break (three weeks off) Cooking: grilling hamburgers Writing: 2000 words in my draft, Beta reading, start working on CP notes for a friend (she's done with mine which makes me feel guilty I don't have hers done yet, but I needed to think first), keep up with cabin stuff, start sketches on two covers (one's for me, one for my son), personal reading. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serendipitous journey Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 (edited) Afternoon! Sporadically sunny here. We're having a light week here, with me planning and all of us working to have lots of joy. School today: reading, math, composition, dabble our toes in memory work. House: vacuumed all of it, DH shopped & we decontaminated the food stuff; laundry, boys' rooms, general picking up, FlyLady stuff. Other: RPG tonight. We ended up motivating a change of game, so I need to work on my character. ETA: also, I have Grand Goals of the Week. 1: incorporate Bible, literature, Shakespeare & poetry mem. whilst staying strong in art, music & American art history. 2: on big art paper, sketch out a pipeline from grammar to logic WTM (for younger) and from logic to rhetoric (for elder) as the basis of summer plans.

Today's goals are accomplishing some writing at lunch and getting through a full day with my mask and not getting frustrated when my glasses fog up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
