I was aware of the French & Indian War and also of the fact that there were many indians and colonists that were killed senselessly because of differences with eachother in those early years (there were colonies that were completely wiped out in the early days when the ships were landing back even as far as Columbus)... but in a general sense, there was an effort to maintain peace... and even friendship in the west... before and after the War of Independence.<BR/><BR/>Erin - That's OK. Just jump in next week! ;)Sprittibeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07992769339576987845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13517164.post-1155264557779275332006-08-10T21:49:00.000-05:002006-08-10T21:49:00.000-05:00Sprittibee,Sorry I couldn't join in on the homesch...Sprittibee,<BR/>Sorry I couldn't join in on the homeschooling carnival this time around.

I'll tell you what I did "the day after the carnival" (my mom left town yesterday, too - she had been here from Texas for a week, so I was really depressed yesterday):<BR/><BR/>1. Sleep in until 10am<BR/>2. Sit around reading comments and emails until 11:10am<BR/>3. UP NEXT: Lunch, clean the house up<BR/>4. Grade papers/update my dayplanner<BR/>5. Goof off and do crafts with kids<BR/>6. Cook Badda-Bing Chicken for dinner<BR/>7. Goof off some more<BR/>8.

After all those hours I ...Thanks so much everyone! After all those hours I put in, it is sure nice to get a pat on the back. At 4am last night, I was wondering what in the world I was doing volunteering!?! Thanks to those of you who have emailed also - even if you didn't leave a note in the comments section here. And to those who notified me that the fonts were too small to read for a while. I figured out the problem with the fonts. Sorry for those of you who had to get out your microscopes... and the few during the lunch hours who had to sit way back when I had them too LARGE.<BR/><BR/>Now I'm back to normal, hopefully. Plus, with all the hits coming in, my geocities fried out and I had to move my template graphics all to photobucket. I am so fed up with geocities that I'm not going to use them at all any more.<BR/><BR/>I am glad you all enjoyed the "show" and I've made sure to correct all the grammar errors and linkage problems as I have been notified of them. Come back and check to make sure yours got done and you'll be able to hold me accountable. Please let me know if my "fix" didn't really fix it!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for being patient with my for my first time hosting. ;)Sprittibeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07992769339576987845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13517164.post-1155060105006989732006-08-08T13:01:00.000-05:002006-08-08T13:01:00.000-05:00WOW GIRL!
