We have been waiting on our History 3 classes for three weeks now all I keep hearing is that they are on order but nothing is showing up on our account for the lessons. I will have to talk (again) to my helper teacher and have her double check that they have been ordered. I hate not having what I need and this makes me want to to switch curriculum but I am hopeful that this is just a glitch on their end. I will need to make a decision soon since I will be needing to sign up dd for Kindergarten in March I know I will keep her home but need to decide what curriculum I will be using for her. She will catch onto reading immediately and loves math already which to me are the basics for her!
I have all the laundry (except towels) caught up. Today I will do the towels and wash our dog's old comforter that he sleeps on in our room (it is getting kind of dog smelling!) Then all the laundry for the week will be done (until Friday when I have to wash dh's work clothes) I am making cinnamon rolls for the kids and myself for breakfast ans they smell yummy!
On the knitting front I am working on a pair of Monkey socks for myself. I just finished a pair of basic socks for dd. I am planning my Christmas present knitting and crocheting. I have some of the yarn bought and need to sort it out so I know what I still need to purchase and make a list for it too!. Then I can start planning patterns and writing the ones that need to write.
I am also starting to plan the garden and need to pullout my seed catalogs and get ordering there too (before all the good stuff is gone!) I have my plan form last year all written out is it is a matter of going through it and dropping what didn't work or was not to our liking and adding in things that we do like and will use! The kids want me to plant extra green beans, snow peas and broccoli (yep my kids love fresh broccoli and managed to clear 12 plants of their flowers in one day!!!!) So I know that broccoli will be planted more deeply this year! I will drop off Brussels sprouts they did really nothing last year along with green peppers (1 pepper per plant is NOT a good harvest!) I can get them at the farmer's market cheap enough even for organic ones.
I went to Aldi's yesterday for cheese and found bouquets for $1.49! I purchased two of them one with purple roses (my faves) and one with white roses trimmed with pink edgings, they look so nice on the side table in the living room. The purple ones are especially fragrant and the carnations that came with them all are pretty too. Dh couldn't believe the price that I paid for them and told me I should have bought more for myself! We will be celebrating Valentine's Day at a later time since he has not been working because of the nasty weather we have been having (working on a roof in -10 degrees and snow and ice is not fun or safe!) we will go out to dinner as a family at a later date.
I am also planning on working on dd's birthday party planning. She has (finally) decided that she wants a fairy princess party so I will be working on the invites (got the envelopes yesterday) and then pick up the plates (purple and pink) and napkins (purple and pink) and do a doll cake dressed as a fairy princess for her. Instead of going out to dinner on her birthday (a family tradition we let them pick the place that we eat at for their birthday dinner) she wants to go to the local water park for the evening, we told her sure (it will cost about the same anyway!)
I need to get going now and get those towels running they will not wash themselves! (unfortunately)
