Last week was pretty productive, now we just need to keep that up! It’s a busy week that lies ahead, especially since the girls have extra ballet classes this week, to make up for a class that got snowed-out in March. They normally have class on the same day, but their makeup classes are on different days so that’ll add a lot to our schedule.
1.) Bible Study: Morning devotions using this site to study my bible chronologically.
2.) “MUST Do” List:
- Stick to my daily schedule (as God allows) for morning devotions, taking care of the home and home-schooling.
- I finished sorting and organizing all the papers and bills last week. I have a few things left in the action pile that must be taken care of this week.
- Take the girls to ballet, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday!!
- Iron Big Daddy’s clothes for each day, as a labor of love.
3.) Taking Care of My Home:
This week I’m going to try to take care of as many monthly chores as possible, so the schedule will be a bit different.
Daily Chores and then focus on these areas for weekly chores:
- Monday - Kitchen; Wash Lights
- Tuesday - Dining Room; Wash Darks
- Wednesday - Living Room; Wash Towels & Little Prince’s Bedding
- Thursday - Master Bedroom & Bathroom; Wash Lights & Master Bedding
- Friday - Kids’ Rooms; Wash Darks & Girls’ Bedding
Saturday has a smaller list of daily chores anyway, so we’ll do that and then tackle the monthly chores.
- Saturday - Wash Whites; Monthly household chores
4.) Training My Children:
- Daily basics (Math, Grammar, Handwriting, Spelling, Reading)
- History - Ancient Rome - Go to the library and get more books, too!
- Science - Plant reproduction and growth.
- Life Lessons from the Princess and the Kiss
