• Money

  Today we started our chapter in Weaver on the subject of money.  The Bible has alot to say about money.  Much of the scripture we read came out of Proverbs.  I love that book.  So much wisdom packed in.  We also had some library books that we began to read on the history of money.  Did you know that in Africa, giraffe tails are still used as money.  Also went over our family budget and discussed savings, tithing, and other places our money goes.  We had done a family workshop during the month of March this year where we had already shared the budget and other family matters with the kids, so we just refreshed it all.  Rejoiced over the fact that we haven't had a car payment in 10 years.  But I think that may change soon.  We are going on 222 K on Big Blue. 

  I went to get my hair cut today.  I love it.  I am hoping it will be easier to keep.  With this head full of curls, it is always high maintenance.   Ended the day with a movie from Netflix.  I am David.  The kids liked it and we ended up with Chinese for supper.  My Mom stopped by and topped the night off by sticking some yummy chocolate chip cookies in the oven.

  On the agenda for tomorrow:  We have someone coming by to look at the house.  I'm handing it over to you, God.   Then we have a Thanksgiving gathering at Dinosaur Adventure land from 1:30 till 5.   This is a homeschool event that is a structured educational time that will focus on the real meaning of Thanksgiving.  After that a good game of Co-ed softball should be the highlight.  Until then.
