In My life this week....

This week was just a little crazy, Buck left on Sunday to be gone for the whole week. Cody left on Sunday to go camping with his best buddy Kyle until Wed.. Justin was with Nina's family for the day. so I had the afternoon all to my self, I finished the fifth book in series I was reading and of course did some cleaning. the beginning of the week went smoothly Justin still home with me and doing some school. But when Cody got home he things made a change, the or thing was just so tired. He took a nap in the car while Justin was at he drama class. I looked at the poor fellow and said your neck is swollen and you just don't look good. I called the Dr. but of course it was like 4:30 in the afternoon so I would have to call back in the morning. So I did and got him in for a 3:45 apt by this time his temp was up in the morning and down around noon but when we got to the Dr.'s it was 103. They gave him motrin and took a look into is throat and yes we think it might be strep. They took a culture (at this time on Sunday of course I haven't heard the results of that) and sadly he got a shot on his poor behind. He doesn't get sick often so when he does he goes all out. He also must have a high tolerance for pain and love for having fun because id I didn't drag him to the Dr he wouldn't go. At this point he is so bored of watching t.v.

(I guess this can be a good thing)

In our homeschool this week.....

Well truthfully not a lot happened on the school front with Cody camping and getting sick. Justin plugged along in his math and enjoyed he new drama class, they are doing a rendition of Harry Potter. He is Ron.

Places were going and people were seeing.....

Buck went to Fallon, Nevada from Sunday to Thursday.

Cody went camping from sunday to Wednesday and of course to the Dr.

Justin had class and went to Nina's on Sunday and Thursday

I drove to the airport twice, took Justin to class, and picked cody up went the Dr with him went to a life group rally on Friday night with Buck.

Sat we were supposed to go to a family picnic but decided best if Cody stayed home so Justin stayed with him and Buck and I went.

I called Caleb and Dad had made it there so we thought we would head up to twenty-nine palms on Sunday. but when Buck and I got up from the picnic cody had a temp of 101 so we decided to stay home.

My favorite thing this week....

We went to a house for a picnic on Sat. and it was just awesome. It made me remember why we wanted to live on Silver Strand so many years ago. Housing wait list are moving much faster theses days and we decided to put on the waitlist for housing. Buck could ride his bike to work almost everyday, and we wouldn't have to pay $300 or more in utilities like we are now. Yes it will be so much smaller but we will have the beach on one side of the house and the bay on the other what could be better than that.

What is working/not working....

seems all is going well. I continue to rethink how we do school and want to adjust more to using less structured workbook and textbooks

Homeschool questions /thought to share....

Do the boys really need the resource classes at the school as much as we thought. Next year, What if I don't use a charter and maybe we can travel with Buck more? Things to think about I guess.
