Weekly Wrap-Up

Happy Friday, y’all! I hope you’ve had a wonderful week. We only have two weeks left until our summer break! Honestly, little will change for me except I won’t be nagging teens to get up and do school every morning.

We’ve been busy tying up loose ends. I’ve been busy fighting the same urge I had about this time last year – telling them that they’re probably as smart as they’re going to be this year, so let’s just start break now. {grin}

Brianna has had a good week. She got a promotion to a department manager position at the new job she’s had for about six weeks or so. It’s not cutting hair. She may go back to that at some point, but she wasn’t especially crazy about it. I’m very excited for her. She really wanted this position and worked hard for it.

She also went out with someone new who she’s been talking to for a couple of weeks. Yeah, she and the boyfriend I mentioned a few weeks ago broke up, leaving me wishing I hadn’t said anything here because, you know, it’s her life.

I’m only saying something now because these two have really hit it off and remind me a lot of Brian and me when we first met. I didn’t want there to be mass confusion if I post pictures of her and the new beau at some point.

I’m excited about Mother’s Day weekend. I have some steaks for Brian to grill. Then, we’ll be indulging in the Mother’s Day tradition we started last year – seeing a Marvel movie on Mother’s Day. It’s one the kids don’t complain about at all. This year, it will be Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2. Yeah, we saw it the weekend it came out, but it’s so worth seeing again.

Brianna starts working full time on Monday, so yesterday we went out for a girls’ day. We had breakfast at Chick-fil-A, then went for mani-pedis. Well, except I just got a pedicure.

That’s pretty much the excitement of a week in the life of a mom who homeschools teens who work independently. I know it’s not especially exciting to read, but I’ve got the say that it’s pretty enjoyable to live.

  1. Sounds like a good week. We’re hoping to take the kids to see Guardians of the Galaxy this weekend too.

    Is that a real tattoo? The lettering is great and the colors pop really well together. Love it!

    1. Yes, the tattoo is real.

      Just a heads-up: There was more language in Guardians 2 than I recall in the first and more than a typical Marvel movie, I thought. It was still a fantastic movie and I’ll take my whole family because my youngest is 15. Just thought I should mention it.

  2. I kinda gave up blogging my weekly school summaries because I have a middle schooler and high schooler that are both pretty independent as far as school-work goes. Boring city. lol
    Maybe I’ll just do one summary a year from now on. haha
