Table Talk: Getting to Know You

Cmash Loves to Read”=

Below are my three tidbits of conversation to get things rolling. Answer in the comments to keep the conversation rolling, and then, link up and start a conversation on your blog. To link up, click on the button above! Have fun, the entire purpose is to get to know you better :)

1. I am currently STILL trying to organize my five students for school. We had intended to start yesterday, but that shall be pushed back to next Monday at the latest. Why am I so far behind? Well, I have 10 bookcases of materials just for school, as well as various odd piles of materials scattered in a couple of random places. After homeschooling six children for 14 years (Oldest is in college now) I have accumulated a lot of curriculum and manipulatives. Therefore, I decided this year, to PURGE AND ORGANIZE first. No matter how long it took. Then, we are implementing a new organizational system that is taking time to set up, but will be totally worth it in the end (workboxes). Did you have a big project this year?

2. I love audio books because I can pursue my other hobbies while listening. I also use them extensively in my homeschool program. Interesting audios, when used as a read-alongs, have been the turning point for some of my reluctant readers!! Do you listen to audio books?

3. Some of the hobbies I like to pursue while listening to my audio books are: Crocheting, cross stitich, sewing and all sorts of crafts. I am hoping, with my new organizational system for school, to get back to both listening to audio books and crafting again. What hobbies do you pursue?

Looking forward to your answers, and feel free to join me :)

Table Talk Tuesday

My three tidbits for today:

1. I love office supplies/school supplies. They are fun, and they make me happy! :) My favorite one that I recently found when doing a big purge before the school year started: my staple-less stapler! What is your favorite odd thing?

2. I only wear skirts/dresses. Why? Because I love being a girl and boys cannot (or at least should not) wear them! And, I cringe to see slacks riding up or bunching on women. I think skirts and dresses modestly and beautifully frame a woman's figure. I also love they way I swish when I walk! What is your favorite thing to wear?

3. Lilacs, roses, lilies, and sunflowers are my favorites. What is yours?
