No longer waiting on UPS ...

Posted on Jan. 10, 2006 at 9:05 AM

Our book order did indeed arrive - yay! It is kind of funny how when you order things off the internet you envision them a certain way or a certain thickness. My daughter was shocked at how thick her math book is and how thin the poetry book is! lol

My one book, out of the whole box, is Senior High: A Home-Designed Form+U+La by Barbara Shelton. Any of you read it? What did you think?

Our box of Scattergories is pretty badly squished. I am not sure what the packer was thinking when they put it on the bottom under several large, heavy books? I am telling myself that the discount we got by buying it from cbd justifies the squished box! I am one of those people who likes to keep things as new looking as possible and this box looks sat upon! lol

It has been pointed out to me, by my wonderful oldest loves to learn daughter, that I forgot to order a few things with that last order so now I get to place another one. More waiting on UPS … Yay!!

LOVE my UPS man

I really enjoy watching for the delivery man. Why is that? I hope you have as much fun as I do looking through all the new stuff and digging into the box. I love the new stuff...Ü

What prompted all the newness? Do you start a new school year in January?

Senior High Form-u-la

I am reading this book right now. I just ordered it about 3 months ago from CBD. My daughter started high school this year and this book is very different from the records and planning I've completed. I'm still trying to decide if I want to do hour based credits or content based credits. The book is a difficult read IMHO because she writes in a stream of consciousness style. However, her message is beautiful and orderly. The forms and great ideas abound. The book is worth the money for just all the great examples of schedules and forms. I am enjoying reading about the life experiences she shares about graduating 2 homeschoolers and what God has taught her along the way.

I love the anticipation of a book order! Usually after Christmas we take a break from ordering as we tend to go a little crazy in November and December... but sometimes there is just something I *have* to have!
