Highlights of the week Gage did go swimming at our friend’s house last weekend for a few hours and Jason said the kids stayed socially distanced 80-90 % of the time, but that he had to keep reminding them. I know he needed it, he did, but I hate making trade-offs.
We were able to have some time enjoying the outside. Gage and I went to the closest Cleveland metropark, about five minutes away and enjoyed some time playing games, reading, drawing, and, yes, taking a walk. I am at home among the trees.
Jason took the day off of work on Friday and we went to Headlands Beach (Lake Erie). It’s the largest natural beach in Ohio, but somehow it was our first time there even though we’ve lived in Cleveland for 20 years. It wasn’t crowded on a Friday morning and was very beautiful although the sand was rocky. It’s less than 40 minutes from us so we’ll be back.
Our school district just announced that they’re going fully virtual for the first quarter. I’ve been reading like crazy trying to get a handle on what homeschool will look like for us this year and I think it’s coming together. I’ll be working on my lesson plans for August and September and ordering supplies this week and hopefully we’ll start next week.
I wrote about the authors I’ve been lucky enough to meet here.
Gage reviewed Megabat and Fancy Cat here.
I wrote a review of The Brave Learner here.
I posted my 5 word movie reviews that you can contribute to and earn money for charity here.
Books read Great resource.
Another great resource.

Currently reading It’s early but I like it so far!
Such a great morning devotional book for this crazy time.
Currently listening
On the TV We watched season one of Cursed which was okay and The Old Guard that I liked better
, both on Netflix.
Plans for the weekend Lesson planning, pursuing some testing and tutors, and remaining calm 🙂 I had a little freak out at the beginning of the week about the enormity of taking over Gage’s education this year that was not helpful. Wine helped, but getting plans to paper will help even more.
Anything fun planned for your Sunday?
