Today I'd really like to make significant progress towards finishing Iliad 24. The goal for this weekend is to finish.

I have all day today and tomorrow for study and reflection. I plan to do significant study of French For Reading and D'Ooge as well as some reading in Lingua Latina .
I'll report back later with my progress.
Good luck all.
Best,

I was awful. Didn't study a word of Latin. Slept all day instead. In my defense, I've had a frantic week and just needed that blob time to recoup. Back into it tomorrow though, definitely.

Today the goal is to redo Mastronarde unit 9. I have free time today so there is no excuse.

I am pleased to report that my "odyssey" through the Iliad has ended. I have now read it all.

I finished Mastronarde unit 9, along with the exercises. I'm back on track!

Congrats -- that's pretty cool. Hopefully one day, I'll be able to say the same, although other things in Greek than Homer are holding by interest nowadays.
