This afternoon I sat down to my final tea bag of Yorkshire Tea. I received this free little box of tea bags from a health food store while in Canada. My careful rationing of this treat helped make it last 6 months! Crazy.
Hubby has been hard at work this weekend welding together folding table legs. You know those old-school rectangular church tables? The wooden kinds with the legs that fold under? We have needed a long table for events and gatherings at our place, and there's no Costco here. If there was, we'd pop over there and pick up one of those heavy duty plastic tables. Actually, we own one already, but it's stored away in my MIL's crawl space. In any case, you can find those plastic tables here, but the cost is kind of outrageous in our minds. Rob had all of the metal and a nice piece of wood and was up to the challenge of designing the table with the folding legs himself.
This week we were happy to host our small group again. A couple of different reasons had us cancel the last 2 weeks, so it was nice to start up again.
Yesterday we spent the afternoon picnicking with friends at a nearby ranch with a pool. The weather wasn't too hot, and I think the kids really enjoyed a change of scenery.
Another kind of exciting thing--for me anyways, The Good and the Beautiful just released their Chemistry unit and offered the pdf download for free for a limited time! We are almost through with Apologia Swimming Creatures, and I'm keen to start TGTB Chemistry with everyone once we're finished Apologia. The kids have been asking for some chemistry topics and this looks completely doable, even with the challenge of finding specialty items in our locale.
