Ten on Tuesday
Tuesday, June 25, 2013 at 01:41PM 1. The front right blinker on our van is annoying. At the start of the day, it works just fine. As soon as it gets warm, though, it stops working altogether and makes a super fast sound. (And the fact that it works sometimes means that it's not just the bulb (which we've tried changing anyhow). Awesome.)
2. Last weekend, we hit the Longmont Air Show and had a pretty good time:
;)
It was smaller than other airshows we've gone to, but that just made it casual and comfy. ;) We watched the skydivers bring in the flag (while the anthem was sung), enjoyed the smoke from the aerobatics routines, and wandered through the exhibits (including a number of planes and also the bomb squad).
3. Swim lessons continue and are going pretty well. Micah's signed up for one more session after this and is actually starting to look like he can swim. ;)
4. This is one of our "off weeks" from homeschooling. Woohoo! I'm working on tackling a number of projects that have been piling up around here. Fortunately, the boys are pretty good about doing their own thing and perfectly able to feed themselves, lol.
5. (May I just add that it's fabulous to have a 12 year old who's able to grill me some lunch and, for the most part, doesn't complain about it?)
6. Since we have just one "session" left in our school year after this, I need to finish nailing down my curricula choices and purchases for the 2013-2014 academic year soon. Will update about that as I can. ;)
7. Before I can do that, though, I should really work on selling more of our purged stuff here. We're opting not to do a full-fledged garage sale...not enough little stuff and no desire to deal with that, lol. Gotta do some Craigslist listings, I guess. I'll let you know when we get those posted.
8. In the meantime, if you're local, head over to Scrap 2 It this Friday night or Saturday. They're having a garage sale and I'll have a table of goodies there for sale (almost all new, actually). (Friday is a preview from 5-7pm and you need to bring cans of food for the Larimer County Food Bank to get in. Saturday runs from 10-5.)
9. Really. Please stop by if you're in the area! I won't actually be there manning the table or anything (the store takes care of that and has more than a dozen seller tables lined up already) but I have some great stuff to sell and would love for it to go to a good home. ;)
10. Okay, off to get some more done for now...happy end of June to you all!

I've been looking at Singapore Math and my mom mentioned you use(d) it? Could you maybe tell me a little more about why you like (or don't like) it? If you already blogged about it a link is sufficient then I can just ask follow up questions. :) I'd appreciate your thoughts.
Thanks! Melinda
