I am a very light sleeper and am disturbed by any noise but I always used to be able to go back to sleep. Not now, though.

I love days when I can get on with my work peacefully and at my own pace - I always manage to get lots done and end the day happy and calm. These days are rare now that Richard has retired and Elinor isn't at college! <br />Yogi does look such a handsome boy!

I don't know why this homeschooling subject has so much appeal to *me*, but I love it. It's good to hear of so many who have seen the value of the Charlotte Mason method.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12503930255842185609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3691741652741267481.post-2470532576174020372017-07-21T20:35:56.829-04:002017-07-21T20:35:56.829-04:00Oh, I'm awfully glad he's returned, Anne! ...Oh, I'm awfully glad he's returned, Anne!

He's not a roaming Tom, but he will search out a mouse or two in the barn. But I don't think that's where he was...well,only he knows.<br />I used Miss Mason's method of teaching while homeschooling my children. I still like to make an occasional entry in my Nature Journal. :-)<br />Hope you sleep better tonight. ♡Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3691741652741267481.post-30896813851083350242017-07-20T22:29:27.054-04:002017-07-20T22:29:27.054-04:00that is so good, that while you did not sleep well...that is so good, that while you did not sleep well (that's never fun!), you did not rush and the day unfolded to be one that still had some peace in it!
