So much for back to routine.

Things got really crazy around here this month. Even more crazy than normal. My sister was in the hospital and I spent lots of time with her and my Mom. Things just settled down when she came home last week. Then we had Angel's 16th birthday party. Since things had been nuts, her actual birthday passed without much fanfare. So after the fact, we decided to orchestrate a surprise party. Things went well and we all had a blast. Thanks so all who came out and surprised her.

We are going into busy season with Angel and all her performances and competitions so that will make things fun around here. However I am trying to get back into routine. Homeschooling has been really simple the last few weeks. The girls were working on a project that incorporated both History and Communication Skills so starting Monday we will be switching over to Math and Science. The project was something I had been wanting to do with them and it made it easier for them to work on their own and freed my time to be at the hospital. Now it's buckle down time with the Math. I also really need to think ahead a little and order testing materials for the girls. Alyssa plans to apply to a local Magnet high school for next year so I have to have the testing on time.

Hope your month has been good and that you and yours are healthy and well.
