Getting Ready

This past week I walked into our Study...which, by the way, should not be called "The Study"...it should be called The TV room. We do not have cable, however, we have alot of movies and we keep Blockbuster Online in business. So...I walked into the Study and noticed that all of the new school curriculum was stacked against the wall, laying on the floor, turned sideways in one of the two small bookcases that are in there. We also have 3 Rubbermaid containers stacked full of DVDs and videos. So, Greg and I decided to start checking on bookcases. I looked at iKea first and then checked some other places that usually have reasonable prices. After looking for what we need with 4 kids, all of my husband's books and all the stuff on the floor, we decided to have a builder friend of ours come over and give us a bid on "built-ins", floor to ceiling. It came out to be a better deal! So, on Friday night we were up until 2 a.m. painting the TV room...which will soon be an actual Study. It will be finished in a couple of weeks...brought over in pieces, and attached to the wall. i am SUPER excited to say the least. I have got to be organized this year with 2 kiddos being homeschooled. I am nervous about this. The idea of teaching Ellie to read scares me...and trying to keep everyone's study schedule organized is going to be a challenge.
Lucy Grace had to get glasses this week. The Dr. said that she is far-sighted in one eye. She is really cute with her "new eyes"...i'll try to post pics of her, the Study & other interesting occurances around The Fields' House.
