The Homeschool Mother's Journal

In my life this week...having returned from another week out of town on Thursday night last week, my weekend was filled with doing laundry and unpacking. On Monday I returned the van to my dad. We had the oil changed, filled up the tank, and ran it through the car wash. On Tuesday, daughter had to see the dentist for some fillings. On Wednesday I returned to my sleep doctor for the results of my sleep test. It had been a while since I had a sleep test. Things were okay. Just needed to up the pressure on my cpap a bit. While I was out I made a stop at Trader Joes and Office Depot. Yesterday, we didn't go anywhere! Also ordered in Papa Johns pizza. I haven't stuck to my menu plan too well this week :/ Today, daughter and I are headed out to do a little shopping. A local boutique has a 50 percent off sale through tomorrow :) In my homeschool this week...daughter had a lot of quizzes and tests to study for and take this week. Hoping her daddy will do some more pre-algebra with her on Sunday afternoon. Places we're going and people we're seeing...see above in my life this week, plus we are going to go to Dollywood tomorrow if the weather is good. Can't wait to see the fall colors over in the Smokies. My favorite thing this week was...seeing and visiting with my Mom and Dad :) I'm reading...I don't think I've cracked a book this week. No, I don't think I did. I'm cooking...check out my Monday menu post. I made the Potato Flake Chicken and boy was it delicious. This will be going into the tried and true file for sure! I'm praying for...a dear friend who is dealing with the pain of watching her daddy in his last few months of life. She is so grateful for the wonderful year they have had together, knowing it may be his last, and making wonderful memories. I know her pain is deep, having lost her mother as well a few years ago. I'm praying for her and asking the Lord to comfort her during this time. That's about all. Time to go put my face on and head out the door with my 13 year old. She keeps me young! Pam
