Our School Room & Not Back to School Blog Hop....Sorta

So there are over 200 submissions on the Not Back To School Blog Hop: School Rooms at Heart of the Matter for the week. How insane is that? What?! Did I say insane? Oops, I meant wonderful (insane- wonderful- same difference lol!).

I would love to 'show' how our school 'room' is but I will simply have to settle for redirecting you to last years school room. This year we have compacted all 'school' material (i.e. books, notebooks, pens/pencils, paper- okay, not that one- and etc) to a desk in the corner of the living room. I would love to say that it is organized also. But mama always said honesty is the best policy!

From the other post you can see that there is a desk in the corner of the living room with Lee's chair- that is now our catch-all. Not too long ago a new friend, and homeschooler :), gave us two school desks. Honest-to-goodness school desks! So now the kids have taken to doing most of their work at their desks. Lee's stays in one place; Fox- well, it stays in a general area (aka, the living room!). I am sure the newness will wear off (or maybe I will be mistaken and it won't...wouldn't that be something) and they will be back to doing school on the couch, on the recliner, at the kitchen table and sometimes in their rooms.

We have taken our class'room' outdoors as well but honestly that does not work well for the easily distracted bunch that is us :) I should have taken a picture of the local Subway and put it in here...you can learn anywhere :)

For anything that requires the computer, that is done in the breakfast nook. Why they call it a nook...wait, I know...because it's tiny! It's where we have our kitchen table as well. This is where I do all my school work.

Wow, that actually looks nice... lol. That computer that you see there, yea, it's always there. That's it's chair ;)

The bookshelf there doesn't hold 'school' books per se but it has a lot of things that are used for school, but mostly the printer. I want another bookshelf just like it but if I put it in the nook, directly across from the one I have, well you'd be able to see it in this picture- that's how small the nook is!

I'm not sure what else to show...most of my photos are in that other post, where the difference is one of the big black card playing tables is gone and all items from it are put on the corner table. And there are two school desks: one by the window and the other ...wherever he happens to stop at! Not good for the wood floor, let me tell ya!

Thanks for stopping by our classroom :) You can see more at Heart of the Matter with the Not Back to School Blog Hop.
