Life's Harder Without My Laptop - July 14 thru September 26

My laptop died. We're not talking about a dead battery here, or the hard drive going out. It's the motherboard. The experts (i.e. Rock) have comfirmed that this poor computer will never see the light of day again.

So what does this have to do with homeschool? Convenience, mostly. I used to be able to print schoolwork from my spot on the couch. Now I have to go
clear into the bedroom to do so. I also used to be able to blog about our day as it progressed (not that I was all that great about it) instead of saving the task for later. That's why it's been months since my last post. Well, that and the fact that my poor pregnant hips can't stand sitting in an office chair long enough to blog.

Anyway, I've found my iphone, and while it's not an ideal solution, I can blog from the couch again. Baby could be here any day now, so that will help as well. Maybe I can fet a new laptop for Christmas.

Meanwhile, we have been having school and it's been going pretty well, in spite of me being pregnant. I've been a lot more relaxed about things and I think that helps.

What did you learn today?
