"Life in a Medieval Abbey" is *really* excellent & while OOP, can be picked up pretty cheaply. It's a very thorough book!<br /><br />Our Westmoreland School ~ To be fair, I did the planning for the illumination stuff last summer when I was still in "super planning mode," LOL. I lost most of my plans when my hard drive died, unfortunately, but was able to salvage a few things. 'The Other Boleyn Girl' is on my to be read list!Kristinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10997603697583223908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-530343612837953701.post-42594907540140820592010-01-09T13:21:45.168-08:002010-01-09T13:21:45.168-08:00For not planning, what you have is much more thoro...For not planning, what you have is much more thorough than I had put together for the same time period. It looks wonderful. We studied illuminated lettering, but not to the depths you have there. I wish I could back and redo it (there's always middle school, right).<br /><br />I read a biography of Mary Queen of Scots last year and there was a great deal of the mess Henry VIII left behind. The Other Boleyn Girl is also a nice, albeit partly fictional, read for that time. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing :) I really enjoyed reading your blog (sorry for your migraine and the difficulties you've found in the new courses).Our Westmoreland Schoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09003064902706127546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-530343612837953701.post-2275956017674775472010-01-09T11:52:13.293-08:002010-01-09T11:52:13.293-08:00Thanks for all the info on illuminated lettering a...Thanks for all the info on illuminated lettering and the book Life in a Medieval Abbey. We are currently listening to all the Hildegard von Bingen music that I can find online, so Life in a Medieval Abbey might be something we should read!Mandy in TNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00013708489019275243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-530343612837953701.post-38620408985979812512010-01-09T07:05:51.554-08:002010-01-09T07:05:51.554-08:00I just love your blog!

Terrible things!<br /><br />Those history books sound very interesting too.<br /><br />CLAA looks so very intimidating to me! Good luck with that. I'll be interested in how you progress.Faithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12187013947104536133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-530343612837953701.post-55259090997326593792010-01-09T06:05:06.338-08:002010-01-09T06:05:06.338-08:00Sorry to hear about your migraine- not pleasant!

My children sometimes have hours of whining and we have no memory work- so you have my utmost empathy!cynhttp://www.web.mac.com/sgilli3noreply@blogger.com
