Weekly Wrap Up - The One With a Fridge!

Here it is folks, the long awaited new fridge!!!  Isn't it lovely?

For those who don't know.  We've been without a working refrigerator since July.   Last week we had MAJOR delivery issues, but now, thank God, we have an actual working fridge.  This week when I go grocery shopping I can buy cold items and fresh produce, I may be a bit giddy!!

Monday was a regular school day for us, nothing overly exciting.  Olivia had basketball practice from 6:30-8:30pm, and Lindsey had sewing class from 6-7:30pm, so the husband and I had to divide and conquer.

Tuesday morning we had a service project with our co-op group.   We went to a local thrift store and worked for several hours sorting clothing (unreal amounts of clothing).   The only academics for the day was math for both girls.   Then Olivia had her first away basketball game, it was only a scrimmage.   I dropped her off at the school at 3pm, they got back at 9:20pm and we were home by around 9:45pm.   She was exhausted!  (They lost.)

Wednesday Olivia slept in a bit to compensate for the late night on Tuesday.   Lessons were completed a bit later in the day than I like, but she got done so it's ok.   Lindsey spent her extra time working on her lap quilt, and she finished up just before we headed out to church.

Thursday we had chiropractor appointments first thing.   We went by a discount grocery store while we were out and stocked the fridge (yippie).   We came home, knocked out the school work for the day and actually have a little down time.   Basketball practice followed in the evening, and we went straight from practice to the fall sports awards.   Long day!

Friday (today) we have our last co-op class for the semester.  We'll take a break from now until the first week of January to alleviate any additional stress over the holidays.   This will also give us a 5 day school week again for roughly 6 weeks, so we can knock out some things.
