quick synopsis

Okay, a quick catch up post!
Dd1 finished off her attentiveness unit last week by writing a report on Helen Keller. She also typed it on the computer, and has shown it to EVERYONE who will look at it. It is actually pretty good considering it is her first one!
Now we are just putting everything together in a duo-tang to be added to when we come back to Attentiveness in a few weeks.
We are going to be studying the Olympics for the next couple of weeks. It should be a fun mini-unit, and we will even be able to watch figure skating and call it school! Dd1 will be doing skiing lessons as well, which she is very excited about. It will all work together!
And then we should be having company arriving sometime around then too, which will also be very exciting!
Today, my husband was the teacher as I had to take the baby to the clinic for her immunizations! So the book work got done anyway. I also picked up Liv's Cat 3 test booklets, so she has to do those sometime in February as well. Those are standardized skill tests, similar to CTBS that I wrote when I was a kid.
As for an update on the laundry situation, we received our Ralphbucks on Thursday, the day after I prayed about the washer, so I wasn't sure if we should just buy one, or what, so we called a few in the paper, and hubby is going to look at a set tomorrow after work, a few blocks from dd1's dance class, that is only about 3 years old, for only $350. Hopefully these will be the ones! I am running out of Tea Towels already! Jason is going to help him with the muscle, and we are all going to meet for supper if it all works out. I think it is so neat, because we do that sometimes anyway, and now the washer is in that neighbourhood! Keep you posted!

God bless!
