This is a super quick post just to pass this link along about the movement to unschool higher education. Good links in that article. Read it.

It’s been a while since I posted ANYTHING. I’ve been busy this summer enjoying the kids and the break from school work. I’ve been finishing up and starting projects.

Some of the work has been tedious and time-consuming (making 6 new box cushions for our couch in the mountains…WITH PIPING AND ZIPPERS! Some of my projects have been spur-of-the-moment like rebuilding a tiny brick wall that houses flowers right by my grill (see above). Some other projects have been hanging over my head for a while (like the dresser I needed to paint for Hannah, the chair I wanted to reupholter-OH YES I DID- and the bedroom I wanted to repaint. Sorry I haven’t posted about those things. I think seeing what others are accomplishing is incredibly motivating but I’ve been so wrapped up in getting stuff done that I haven’t wanted to take the time to post about it. Also, we’ve been getting to our mountain house nearly every weekend since baseball ended for some work and play. Making progress there-yippy.

Hannah is getting ready to go to a charter school next week. I’ll try to post about that transition for our family. (Sniff sniff and “YOU GO GIRL!”-I’ll miss her for sure but am so excited that she has this opportunity). The rest of us are looking forward to a fresh start with school work. It’s been a good summer.
