So, at the tender age of 40-something (and x > 45), I am taking up the study of Latin. My brain is not fresh, my eyes require bifocals, and Latin is hard. I have heard all of the reasons for studying Latin, but in our own homeschool, without the impetus of having an external pressure requiring me to do it, Latin was never going to get done. Becoming a Challenge B director was the needed catalyst, and so here I go. My big girl panties are in a bit of a bunch, but no worries, "I got this!" (Quotes used here because the grammar of that expression pains me every. single. time.)
And there's the rub. The grammar nerd in me is having fun! Latin is a giant grammar puzzle. It is not an easy puzzle, mind you. I would have chosen a different text and a different pace, but since I am assigned this for now I am working with it.
