It's a Brain Thing
I know. I haven't been blogging. It's one of those situations where the time to blog is inversely correlated with the ability of my brain to make any kind of sense. It happens.
I promised my husband a post on whether or not we actually have that Greco-Roman heritage we claim to have. It'll happen.
I promised many of you a post on homeschooling and being an introvert. I'd have written that by now, but I'm too busy running away and checking out when we're finished with school.
I wish to write a gloriously positive review of Classical Writing, because the more I learn about this program the more I think it's the greatest thing since sliced bread, and the cure to all educational ills. *I* want to learn to write with this program. I have learned more about writing by reading their message boards and emailing Lene than I ever did in college. And did I mention that I have a degree?
Then there's the struggle I'm having between school and summer. We're doing school, because we took off half the spring. But the weather here is so nice ... Eh. We did a full day today. (Math, Latin, handwriting, piano AND Classical Writing were all done by 11:30 am! We rock! And in the afternoon, we read Greek myths, Roman history and a version of Macbeth. We rock more!) Tomorrow I'm thinking we'll go berry picking.
I bought a new chair for my office. It's the adjustable type. My four-year-old just made it go all the way down, and now I am typing at you from way down below my desk. He giggled. A lot. Anything to make the kid giggle.
And with that, it's midnight, and the early bird gets the best strawberries. Sleep well!

I'm looking forward to reading your homeschooling/introvert posting... and I'll be very interested in your comments on CW too:-) Yet again I find myself leaning after the directions you are taking:-)

Ready to hear all about Classical Writing.
It sounds to me like you have found the perfect homeschooling balance. A day of school... a day of berry-picking...
Enjoy!
