Friday Fragments

We’re “almost” ready to roll! Today we pull the camper out and set it up in it’s new home! I say we’re almost ready because there are a few things that aren’t done- like putting the rug down on the floor. But I set today for our “goal” date. We were going, ready or not! We can do the rest while there.

This is probably the first goal date I’ve hit in years. But then again, it’s only 7:39 a.m. The day isn’t over yet!

Homeschool or Public School

I enrolled the Princess in public school yesterday against my wishes. I know, I know, I’ve heard it before, I’m her mother and I should decide which she does. I have my reasons for what I did- you can read about it HERE.

In my opinion, after I enrolled her, I thought the Princess looked a little sad.

I did tell her that if it became physically too much to let me know and I’ll HS again.

She has Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis- last time she went to PS (2 yrs ago) she was having problems navigating between classes and such and being on time. They have since EXPANDED the school.

I expect she’ll be home soon- and not just for that reason.

BTW- the socialization issue………..I found that button up above on a homeschooling group- love it! As you will see on my blog post about her going back…it was all about socialization.

When I re-enrolled her, the one woman at the school office asked if it was because of socialization. My daughter said yes, and I said ” She misses the detention she used to get for socializing.”

The lady kind of laughed then said she was surprised the Princess was coming back- it seemed like we were doing really well and had a good system down (she reads the school reports). Our system was natural learning for the most part!

Puppy Report

We bought Cosmo a new toy- it is a stuffed hamster and it has a string you pull. When you pull the string it shakes and makes a noise. I call it the Hyper Hamster. I took a video of him (with my Blackberry) pulling the string but I couldn’t send it to my email- the file was too big.

Every file is too big! Does anyone know how to transfer a video from a Blackberry to the computer?

Ok, have to go finish  packing. If I can get Internet service at camp, I’ll check you guys out later. Otherwise, I’ll catch up Sunday night and Monday.

Have a great weekend!
