Hello. Today has been a very nice day outside here in West Virginia. It was a beautiful 55 degrees and sunny. I homeschool my daughter, so we decided to take a small break and go outside for a walk and enjoy the nice weather for a little while today. It was wonderful,I love being outdoors. I hope the rest of you are having some nice weather to enjoy.

Lucky you! It's been rainy and windy here and I think we're supposed to have more of the same tomorrow. I'm supposed to be going to the shop tomorrow, but if it's raining I won't be going! You sound like you had a great day.

Aww, hopefully you will get some of this nice weather soon. It's supposed to be in the 50s here all week but after that it'll probably be cold and snowy again for us. This is very unusual for us. Yes, we did have a wonderful day. I can't wait until it gets warm and stays.

@MelissaAnn1979 Thank you very much. I checked my weather app, and it's supposed to be dull and rainy all week. I have decided not to go to the little Tesco today. My Mum might go later instead. I hope we get some better weather soon too. But we have been told that February is supposed to be the coldest on record! We haven't had any snow here yet. They've had some up North and in Scotland, but it hasn't reached us yet! But there's still time. I don't like snow. I'm glad you had a wonderful day. I can't wait till it gets warmer too.

@sharonelton I wished I could say we hadn't had no snow but we had several bad ones in January. I am like you I don't like the snow either. Hopefully it will not be too cold for you this month.

My sister homeschools her children too, and she likes to get her kids outside when the weather is nice. They need to burn off some of that energy. I am glad to hear that you and your daughter got to appreciate the nice weather as well.

@AmbiePam Yes, with the younger kids it does help burn off energy plus there are so many things they can learn outside and not even really realise they are learning. Of course mine is seventeen and she realizes now that when we go for our walks it's a learning experience also. We still have fun though.

You can make a science experiment outside just by listening to the sounds around you. Looking on the ground to see any small bugs or butterflies. I did that with my kids all the time.

@MelissaAnn1979 Kids learn from the smallest things that you do with them.

@jstory07 They sure do. They are like sponges they absorb everything. Of course mine is a little more difficult now. She is seventeen.

Thanks for the ideas. Those sound awesome! When it warms up some more at night we are going to use her telescope and do some science things also.

We are enjoying some pretty nice weather here as well in the 50s and I am not complaining one bit for weather like this in February, especially after January was a real nightmare. Just give me spring. If we can just be done with winter already, I will take it.

@MelissaAnn1979 Me too. I get way too lethargic in winter. It is what it is. One of these days I will become a snowbird and spend my winters in Florida. lol

@porwest That's great you're having some nice weather also. I'm not complaining either, we had a rough January as well. I'm like you, I'm done with winter. I want spring and summer here. I'd rather be outside enjoying warm weather anyway.

@sjvg1976 Those temperatures this past week are fine with us too! Summer will be here in about four months for us. It will be quite a bit more warmer here than too but not as warm as your area. The temperatures we are having now, we usually don't have. It's usually quite colder here this time of year.

I just recently had one of those days where it was so nice that I had to get outside. Even skipped out of work an hour early just to have more outdoor time.

@MelissaAnn1979 It’s going to turn cold for us next week too. And by “cold,” I mean temps will be in the upper 60s instead of mid-70s! Lol I hope any snow you receive won’t be too much of an inconvenience for you.

@moffittic That's great. We have had several days in a row like that but, unfortunately, I was looking I was looking at the weather last night and next week it's supposed to turn cold again for us and start snowing again.

@everwonderwhy Hello, I am having a good time here. Everyone is very friendly. Yes, I love teaching my daughter unfortunately it's almost over as she is 17 and will be graduating soon. But I know there is always an opportunity to teach her something even when she is grown.

Sounds like spring is on the way, Whenever I hear the name of your state I hear West Virginia mountain mama by John Denver playing in my head, I think these days it is great that you homeschool your daughter, How old is she?
