Mission Im Possible

Done!

(Click here for the “before” shot.)

There are still some piles of books that I’ve yet to attend to (they’re hidden under the teacher’s table because I am just that prideful) but for the most part…c’est fini!

(That’s French for “It is finished.”)

(Jamie. 🙂

The task got a little bit tedious at times but I offered it up for our sweet Charlotte. Pray for her and that sweet baby girl!

Also, would you like a tour of our classroom next week? I thought I could do a Q & A-type post, assuming that I’m a good little homeschooler and get the lessons done before I blog.

[grin]

Still, getting that room cleaned gives me energy! Heck, at this point I’m ready to promise you fifty posts!

My husband boss might disagree, though.

    Amazing!! Can you come and do mine now? 😉

    I love that you make the most out of the room you have. I need to figure out how to do the same.

    Well done good and faithful servant! We just cleaned out our school cabinets and my office in prep for starting next week. I was encouraged by the before post. Someone else is messy too

    Nice work! I'd love to go to school in your schoolroom!! I would thoroughly enjoy a guided tour next week…after I'm done with our school day, of course 🙂

    That is a great picture! You need to print it out and hang it up to look at throughout the year..you know, when it gets used…I love an empty school room. I think "Do they really need to come in here? It looks so nice"….

    Have a great school year! We are going with Seton this year. I think of you. 😉

    Just noticed you linked to one of my posts in the sidebar. Thanks!

    What a transformation you worked. That will be a very pleasant room to learn in. Growing up our home schooling "school room" was a little spot off my parents' bedroom that was more of a closet. One year wasps ate through the wall from the outside and invaded. Try focusing on latin then. Of course, being home schoolers, we were as likely to be doing our math upside down on the couch in the living room as at our proper desks :).

Hi there!

I’m Margaret in Minnesota, and this is my mom's-eye perspective of a kid-heavy life. I love the Lord; I take lots of photos; and I always try to tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ♥
