Thanksgiving Vacation

I made the impromptu decision that we're going to mostly take this week off school. We have 90 of our 180 days, so we can afford it.

Today we got the living room clean... mostly. You'd never know it to look at it now, though. We also had homeschool book club--Sarah Plain and Tall--and some friends came over to watch a movie this afternoon.

So, for the rest of the week, a to-do list:
1. Catch Michael up on math
2. Catch Katie Grace up on math
3. Do planning for December main lesson blocks
4. Clean kitchen
5. Clean bathroom
6. Clean bedrooms
7. Vacuum halls and stairs
8. Clear porch
9. Take stuff to the Rescue Workers
10. Mop kitchen and bathroom floors
11. Stuff for sale
12. Change signature on MDC
13. Call library about missing books
14. Make shopping plan DONE
15. Make menu plan
16. Make wood cleaner
17. Make other cleaners with Katie Grace for scout badge
18. Call Katie Grace's Brownie leader
19. Call about twin mattress
20. Clean wood in kitchen and living room
21. Black Friday plan
22. Send packages
23. Research window blankets
24. Sewing
25. Catch up on emails.
26. Finish cleaning out mudroom.
27. Paint kitchen trim. Or at least start.
28. Bathroom floor mat.
29. Kitchen curtains
30. Christmas planning
31. Clean out and document PM box DONE
32. Cut Katie Grace's bangs
33. Christmas crafting and cooking planning
34. Ebay
