Homeschool is done. I was reminded today why I don't like taking long breaks from schoolwork. We have really good homeschool routines now but it is harder to get back into the groove after taking a 4-day break. We discuss and acknowledge the challenge which seemed to help.
Last week I used some down time (super sore muscles) to research gardening methods. I followed one method to another to another to another. ANYway I found several methods that I want to try but finally landed on a method that totally fascinates me. I mentioned to DH that I would like to experiment with doing some of the methods and want to start with Dutch Bucket gardening. I was thinking something along the lines of a couple dozen buckets. DH picked up the phone and called a friend of his and told him that we needed a pallet of buckets. My jaw dropped. I really appreciate DH total support of my crazy ideas but but but. 120 buckets is a little more than I was thinking about doing. Ohhssss well. Now I will have buckets to experiment with several of the gardening methods that I have been researching. Grow Buckets. Earth Buckets. Kratky buckets, Global buckets. self-watering/sub-irrigated buckets, RGGS, etc. Oh my. Can a person be too addicted to gardening? No answer needed....
I had planned on going to the Y today before I remembered that it is a holiday. The place is always packed on holidays. I'm spoiled to having the place to myself (or just a couple of people). I'm going to take a pass on going to the y today.
This week is DS10 bedroom complete overall. Everything comes out of the room. Before it is returned to the room everything is gone through decluttered and the items kept are put back in an organized manner. The process has begun....
