August 1st…. where did the summer go?

I’m having a hard time believing that we just entered the month that SCHOOL STARTS!  Well, it doesn’t start until August 31st, but still…. it’s the right month.  I did go out and buy 3×5 cards today…. and now I feel far more ready.  There is so much still to do before school starts… I haven’t even looked for ESL curriculum for Nora yet.  This will be my first year homeschooling with kids in elementary, jr. high, high school and even taking a few college classes!  We’ve come a long way, baby!

Tonight, in one single trip to Walmart, we solved many of the broken household items… new printer… new vacuum… new toilet flusher handle… new box for Barbie and her clothes.  Earlier today I wandered through our lower floor picking lint from the carpet…. oh well.  I’m still looking forward to vacuuming again with a new fangled machine!  Tomorrow morning Superman is scheduled to arrive and fix the washing machine.  I’m not going to know what to do with myself when everything is up and running again!

I feel a book review coming on… stay tuned.
