Skateboarding in New Zealand
This last month was extremely hectic for us. We traveled to Syndey, Australia and then New Zealand. Just four days after we returned, my friend visited us for two weeks. We had no downtime. School work suffered in small ways, our optional homeschool curriculum work didn't get done. Now I am too tired to restart it.
KIDS PROGRESS
SPEED RACER worked through challenges of traveling while doing school work
He only focused on his college classes, but with the weeks of travel, it was stressful getting the work done on time and with lacking internet speeds. It was stressful and challenging for him to have to contact his professors and ask them if he could turn in work early or late.
Also, this 8 week session I made the fatal mistake of scheduling 2 programming classes in one semester. He had a literal freak out moment. Then I talked him off the cliff and got him some tutoring help.
Homeschool Classes that were put on hold
Bible Study (online) Just six videos to go and we have halted due to a crazy life schedule.
Pilot Training (online) He's been doing these on his own, but reduced to 3 a week.
Java Programming (online) this is with CompuScholar and he is taking a college Java course. He will resume this after the college course for more practice.
College Classes online - All Finished.

WORK and HOME BALANCE Working and Homeschooling
MEAL PREP: I am still recovering from our vacation and friend's visit. We've just thrown together frozen meals.
HOUSE CLEANING: We cleaned the house! Yay! It's starting to get messy again as we speak.
LESSON PLANNING: I am doing minimized planning and just created checklist of work I put on the dry erase board.
MARRIAGE CHECKUP: Hubs and I had a spat where we were polite, but not really speaking. It lasted for just under a week when he and I finally got bored with not speaking and apologized.
