Monday we went Northeast
Sep 15th, 2006 by willa
The day after returning from seeing oldest ds at his college, we went to visit my mother in law at her mountain cabin by the lake. We just got back yesterday. The kids had a fun time and we managed to keep going with math. Sean finished book 4 of Key to Algebra. Clare is finishing chapter 3 of Jacob’s Algebra. I gave Kieron some pages of an old Developmental Math workbook, which he rather enjoyed since it was sort of basic and visually oriented. I got to work more on my Latin and am making lots of progress.
I seem to have plateau’d in my weight loss though. Sigh. On the other hand, I am doing much better with my eating habits so I guess there is that compensation. And I haven’t gained anything back.
I can’t seem to figure out how to upload pictures to this blog but I put some of the college visit pictures here.

HTH :)
Don’t get discouraged by the plateau in the weight loss. I am pretty vehemently opposed to using weight as a measure for this kind of thing anyway, largely because it is a pretty unreliable indicator of health and other things affect it (like periodic water retention and all sorts). If you are eating a more healthy diet and doing more exercise and generally feeling better then those are good indicators that you are doing well. Keep going. Stop weighing yourself for a while.
