I love it when a homeschool day comes together!

*knock on wood* So far today, everything has gone right! I shall illustrate for you in bullet point.

The Ways In Which All Is Well Today:

  • Officer Daddyman took The Tank to school, letting me sleep in quite late (I’m not telling how late).

  • Captain Science had his math chapter finished before I got up.

  • Officer Daddyman fixed pancakes and my coffee was ready for me when I got to the table.

  • Captain Science got through his keyword outline of Greek Gods, so we got to go to Rita’s for frozen custard and caramel apple ice (I called you several times, Patchfire, but you didn’t answer).

  • I picked up Editor in Chief A1, Key To Fractions 2 (multiplying and dividing), and a cheap copy of Julius Caesar at Scary Jesus Book Store, and (*dance of joy*) found out they have the theory book to Spencerian Penmanship at their other location and I can pick it up at my local shop on Tuesday or Thursday.

  • Captain Science is finishing his rough draft for his Greek portion of his Pantheon Project with no whining or arguing and very little dawdling.

    • The Ways In Which All Has Not Gone Well:

  • The Tank was playing Dance Mat Typing on Officer Daddyman’s computer, got to some snoring hippo lesson, and then accidentally logged out of the password-protected log-in. Now the damn hippo won’t stop snoring.

  • Captain Science said something really funny and brilliant in the car today and I can’t remember what it was.

  • Captain Science needs to work on treating other people’s things with respect. He keeps knocking/throwing my stuff on the floor and stepping on it.

    • Not a bad day when the good list is that much bigger than the bad list (and the bads are mostly just not-goods as opposed to plain-old-rottens).

      Ah! Finally I get to live vicariously through someone else doing Spencerian penmanship. I do have to insert a pout, though, over not only not having a Scary Jesus Bookstore, but not having any sort of teacher supply store in the area at all. Meh.

        Even if the owner is…let’s just say quirky, being able to just drive RIGHT OVER THERE (which happened to be on the way to my custard) is so nice. I just went in extra friendly and grateful, and received significantly better treatment than last time.
