Needing a break

Do you ever feel like you need a break from everything..well at least from homeschooling,housecleaning,cooking and laundry? WELL I DO..but alas we know that is not going to happen. You know maybe if someone would just give me a little appreciation for everything I do around once in a while it would be okay too.
Oh well, I can always dream. LOL

TAKING A DAY OFF TO RELECT ON SOME OF MY CURRICULUM DECISIONS

I decided to give the boys the day off today because I am going to redo our composition curriculum for this year. While I would love to use IEW , well the reality of it is I can't afford it at this time. I mean it's not like I have nothing to use, on the contrary I have lots of things to use I just need to organize them and decide how to precede from here. I like the idea of using CM ideas of copywork and oral and written narration but my boys do not really like the copywork. So my afternoon will be filled with going through the curriculums and various aides I have and figuring out how to make them work for us.
Wish me Luck!!!!
