It's that time of year that sends homeschooling moms all across the great commonwealth of PA into a frenzied drive to get those portfolios done and evaluations BEHIND them. Many of my dear homeschooling mom/friends have already crossed the great divide and are on the other side, sitting in the sun by the pool with their icy lemonade. Not I, no I must savor and hold on to the school year as long as possible (hogwash.) No, I just procrastinate. I wait too long to schedule my eval. which means I have no incentive to get the portfolio done UNTIL I make the call, which I did. My very sweet friend/evaluator informed me that if I called a week later, uh oh, I would have missed the boat. Which would be as I deserved. Actually we've been done with school (minus the two bio questions we finished today,) since the end of May. So, Friday we go do the deed, have the evaluation that will signify the true onset of summer, aaahhhh. Then we'll rush home, work the pony, bathe and polish the pony and hope the pony stays that way until morning. Sat. a.m. he and Sara go to a horse show, hopefully he'll be jumping small jumps. Hopefully, I say because sometimes simple things can frighten a pony. Between now and then I must do final touch-ups on the portfolio, get our messy house cleaned up and get all our horse show stuff in order. That's my week. We'll see how the Lord transforms it.
I'm grateful for breathing, as that has been much better lately. Last month was a BAD asthma month, after much prayer and new drugs, I'm feeling much better. I'm grateful that the Lord was with me. I was never alone. I know he'll also be with me in my busy week (and yours.. whatever it holds.)
Pic is of Ricky and Sara, she'll be showing him Sat.
