The bathroom tiling is done! I am so pleased with the workmanship and attention to detail; it looks awesome. Now for my part – the painting!
My home project for the week was organizing our medicine cabinet. Cooler weather is on its way, so I’ve been restocking our cough drops and cold medicines. In between school and all of the other tasks of the day, I took a few minutes to organize everything into inexpensive bins…and even added labels. Who even am I right now? P.S. Don’t look too closely at the rest of the house – it’s not nearly as tidy.
I spent hours on Saturday working in and around the garden, pulling out more of the summer garden, amending soil and planting more of the fall seeds. We had heavy rainfall early in the week and it completely wiped out some of my more tender seedlings, so I’m trying again! I also started laying cardboard around the outside perimeter to kill the grass and get ready for topsoil. I’ve got big plans for a cottage flower garden look next spring.
School highlights:
+ We’re learning about Egyptians in history and this week’s topics were hieroglyphics and mummies. Nile project update: the grass grew!
+ My 8th grader is following Mater Amabilis’ Twentieth Century History plan this year and really enjoying it. I like that they’ve included a wide variety of sources to tell the story of the time period (like first person narratives.)

Ancient Egypt is a fun topic and the tiles look great!

Isn't it funny how something so simple can bring so much joy? I need to do some small organization project every week!
