Remember this?

That is how the school room looked on SATURDAY MORNING.

Today, when I start homeschooling Christopher?

It looks like THIS:

I’m not sure how I pulled it all off (yes I do-I had a ton of help from my family), but homeschool starts bright and early this morning!

And I am even prepared.

I cannot even tell you how much work all of this was. It is WAY more than just re-plastering the walls and painting and cleaning.

LOOK AT THAT CURRICULUM BOOKCASE.

Dude.

Let me put it this way–I saved YEARS from the benefit of other people’s experience.

I could NOT be doing this without a huge support system.

Which I will name (along with what we’re using and what is in all those nifty baskets and organizers cause I dig that stuff) tomorrow.

You know, after I am done teaching my kid and I get the website for work launched. (I have to meet with my designers to tweak it tomorrow so…I’ll let you all know when THAT is ready to go as well!)

Right now I am so tired I could die.

So, I am going to go to bed.

Wish me luck.

I’ll let you know how it goes.

    It looks great. Hope you all have a great day today! Remember that homeschooling is not recreating school at home, but learning at home!

    You will be amazing, I just know it. I am going to let you do it for a couple of months and then tell me everything I need to do when I start :)

    Call if/when you need a sanity break, you know like your own recess time ;)

    Wow. We just hang out in the playroom & do stuff. I guess if we do this past kindergarten I’m gonna have to step it up several thousand notches? Whoa.

    So, since we neb into your business all the time anyway, What of James? Is he going to just continue public school? Just wondering because I thought your original post on this mentioned both boys. Did I miss it somewhere?

    Damn girl! Want to come to my house to finish a closet for me?! That is some kinda room; what a great setting for you and your son.
