Not much happened today. It rained (we have had 33mm so far), it was cold. We stayed in the house and had a good family day. This afternoon, Dad and the boys cracked nuts while Mum read. They got a bowlful of meats done! It was AMAZING!
All for now!

Today was wonderfully busy. School didn't go so well as some days, but I guess school does have it's ups and downs. I just need to be more careful about saving time. I often find myself wasting time on the computer, when I could be doing (more important) school. LORD, HELP ME!
What I did for school today:
Tuesday, 6 March 2012
Today was nice and warm and sunny. Wonderful for a change! A nor-westerly was blowing all day, which made it quite warm. We went to Dead Boring today, so no “formal” school—although, reading your story aloud might count as something! Does it count as a “speech”? I don't know. Maybe.
Dead Boring went well. We had a good day that way.
This evening, Kim and Jane came over for Bible study. We studied the last chapter of Acts. Quite the interesting chapter! After reading, we had a discussion about how God protects His children. Through that, we got to know Kim and Jane a little more—they went to a healing camp of some sort, and weird things happened. It's nice to know their background better.
Well, off to bed! It's been a good day!

Today was nice and wet. We stayed in the house mostly. I got a little school done, not as much as I would've liked, but some. A good portion of my morning was spent trying to find a bar graph chart maker.

Not as much as I would have liked, but the day is gone now. Will try to do better tomorrow. (LORD, HELP ME!!!!)
