Schoolwork, yardwork, and music!

Sigh, schoolwork has kept me insanely busy this week, so I am just now getting around to updating things on here.  First of all, Hurricane Irene is gone but it left a mess in our yard.  We had a lot of cleaning up to do, picking up tree branches and shingles which were blown off our church.  The day of the hurricane we only lost our electricity for one day.....I'm VERY thankful for that, lol!

As I mentioned, schoolwork has been very crazy for me this week, I thought Greek was going to cause me to tear my hair out, sigh.  I got thru the rest of my subjects pretty well too, surviving Algebra and even acing my first Biology test, !  Of course, you know my most favorite subject right now is "Literary Lessons from LOTR", , I am doing well in that too.  Other stuff.....I have been looking at a lot of college pamphlets we got at the homeschool convention back in May.  But I am afraid that I am driving my mom crazy with all this college stuff, lol , she says I have awhile til I need to be bothering with all of that.  I know, I can't help it, it's still fun to look at all the neat stuff they have at different colleges.

It was back to music lessons this week, I am still doing piano  and having fun with it.  After taking a break from lessons all summer, I had no problem jumping back into things.  I will be bringing one of our church hymnals to my lesson next week, I am wanting to learn to start playing hymns out of the hymnbook.  My mom teases me and says I am trying to take over her piano position at church, lol, but I am sure she can use the occassional break now and then.  I think it will be fun!
