The reading and the knitting have been so so good this week. Life has been full and busy and varied, yet there has been still so much of both. I am not sure how that happened, and I likely will not be able to repeat it next week.
I finished the neck on the B.O.B. and have worked my way up the right side panel. Once I finish the left one, I will add the buttons, graft the armholes, and don it (with sweat marks) in our now 70 degree weather. Perfect.
Two big endeavors are coming to close at the same time as I also just finished The Good Life. Because our first homeschooling year is upon us, I decided it was time to start planning. Based on your recommendations (thank you!), I have reserved A Charlotte Mason Education at the library. In the meantime, I have started Homeschooling: The Early Years (for some logistical help) and A Pocketful of Pinecones (to get an idea of what a Charlotte Mason education really looks like). I really like both of them so far.

Love the books you have listed. They certainly helped me when I started homeschooling.
The sweater looks great, and I would wear it if the temperature was 90 degrees!
Yay!!! The BOB is almost done. It looks great!
Those sound like some great homeschooling titles...I kind of dove in to homeschooling without reading a whole lot. Maybe I should visit these titles myself...
The BOB looks so great!
I hope you enjoy the Charlotte Mason book. It has definitely been inspiring for our homeschool.
I'll have to write those titles down--they sound interesting. i admire your fortitude with the sweater!
I can't wait to see B.O.B. when it's finished. It's coming along beautifully.
Happy home school planning! :-)
Oh I am so glad you got a Linda Dobson book!! She was so helpful for me!! Can't wait to see the finished BOB.
Congrats on those homeschooling leads! Luckily if the sweater is for you, you most likely will not outgrow it before fall, unlike if it was for a little one ;)
