House changes continue, slowly, slowly from my perspective. We've got all the basic services (heat, hot water, etc.). No dishwasher yet though- that's basic to me! Construction of the upstairs bathroom is in full swing. Zivar and company got it all framed and lots of the wiring done Saturday. There's insulation and boards with nails sticking out of them and plastic-ed off areas all over the place. It makes me kind of anxious, safety-wise. My kids are pretty good about not messing with construction-y spaces though. That helps. But we may need to find other places to play this week. It aslo makes it hard for me to continue unpacking. But I could use a break from that anyways. I'll just flow around it all a bit longer. I ordered some training books for me to learn how to teach drawing and painting and just education in general from a Waldorf perspective. That should help me in figuring out how to set up my homeschool area and what supplies I'll want handy, etc. I've got so much crafty stuff but I'm not sure how to organize it all and I feel kind of stuck about how to proceed. Time to learn more and take more steps on my homeschooling journey. Whee!
Ooo! And Khalil (my brother) moved in with us last night! Yeah! More grown-ups! We're not outnumbered anymore. By kids, that is. Not that it's a competition or anything. It just really helps get things done when there are more grown-ups around.
