I was looking back at our calendar this morning and looked at all the reasons we've taken off of school or missed school this year: my uncle's funeral, a camping trip, a trip out of town to see friends, helping friends move, a few days off here and there to just get caught up on things around the house, etc.
Visiting with friends is > school! |
I guess considering it all, we aren't too behind this year. We're still on track to finish in the first half of June, which was the plan all along.
I "attended" my first webinar last week or maybe it was the week before. It was by Lee Binz, The Home Scholar and the topic was high school. I feel much more prepared and glad that I have Sweetheart's 8th grade year to really wrap my head around it all. I cannot believe I will soon have a high school student!
Enough about school--who wants to think about that all the time? I'm working really hard on our finances/budget/bills right now. That's exciting, right?

We've also been working on the house a lot. S and I have really big plans, but no time or money to actually implement them. So, the LEAST I can do is declutter and clean up. The girls and I took the day off of school 2 weeks ago just to spend the whole day cleaning. And we did. They worked SO hard. We got every room done. Not everything, mind you....like the bill paying desk. Ug. But every room got attention and we threw out 3-4 bags of trash. It felt good!

What glamorous things have you been up to lately friends?
I'd say about the same thing over here! School, paperwork, housework, children, etc. It never stops, but I can never really think of anything to say when people say "So, what have you been up to?" Errrrrr.... I'm not sure (though I never sit down!!).
ReplyDeleteThis is definitely a non-stop place in life, isn't it? :)
