It really generally did just take the morning to finish everything. And we used a *rigorous* curriculum! Just think of all the time that's "wasted" in schools waiting for everyone to arrive, getting supplies organized, taking bathroom breaks, transitioning from one subject to the next, etc. etc. When all that is trimmed out, it really is not hard to finish by 10, 11, or (at most) 1 or 2 PM. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1026245796926061340.post-43528108379601274532013-04-10T06:30:11.286-05:002013-04-10T06:30:11.286-05:00We recently moved & our new home has a car was...We recently moved & our new home has a car wash ($3 a pop, but the vacuums are free) on our way home from everywhere! It is a Friday tradition to swing through and vacuum out the car. We don't go through the wash every weekend, but maybe once-a-month. My daughter does beg for it, though! It has really enhanced our outings to have a clean car! I'm sorry I was a mom for almost four years before I discovered the ease and joy of sucking up all the junk and crumbs with one of those powerful (and FREE) hoses! Now if only I could drive my *house* through there once-a-week... ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1026245796926061340.post-44497754827582365412013-04-08T12:02:57.361-05:002013-04-08T12:02:57.361-05:00"Late morning after the kids finish their sch..."Late morning after the kids finish their schoolwork"<br /><br />You mean homeschooling only lasts for the morning hours?

I have just realized that this is what my life has been lacking.
