That is the only word for my blogging.
I'm sure no one is still visiting at this point. LOL!! You've all given up on me, haven't you? :)
So, what's been going on lately -
My kids are growing like weeds. My oldest son continues to grow more and more taller than I am. The other two aren't far behind, I'm sure. It's definitely a new stage having a teenager in the house.
I've been pretty busy with my travel business, thankfully! Of course, you can never have too many clients. :) I'll never complain about being busy though. It's a joy to have people allowing me to assist with their travel planning. The more the merrier.
Yesterday was the first day I seriously did any homeschool planning for the coming school year. Normally by now, I have all of our materials and have planned the first few months. This summer has flown by on me. I just placed an order a few days ago for some of the items we need. I've got two more companies I need to order from. Last night I laid out which days we will have school and which days we will take as holidays from school, so we meet our 180 days. Once I had this decided, it looks as though we'll be starting two weeks from this Tuesday. This will allow us to finish towards the end of May 2010.
The kids have each picked up new instruments. They used to take piano lessons, but now we've moved onto guitar & trombone (oldest son), drums (middle son), and flute (daughter). We're trying out a new homeschool beginner band this year. We'll see how it goes.
I'm still trying to run. The hot summer has made it hard. Many days I talk myself into doing my aerobics video instead. Hopefully the humid summer days will end before I forget how to run. LOL!
Let's see... what else -
My poor mom broke one foot and broke the ankle on her other leg. She's literally been off her feet for a couple of weeks.
My sister has to have gall bladder surgery. I feel horrible for her. I hope it's not too bad. She says it will be out-patient, so that has to be a good thing.
We're contining to do some painting around the house as we have the $. It's definitely freshening things up. If we can't move, then we'll gradually get this place updated. :)
Well, I guess I've caught you up a little. I'm not ready for summer to end. It's been nice being mom without being teacher for a few weeks. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy homeschooling. However, having the summer off from my "teaching job" is nice!
Hope you all enjoy the rest of your weekend!
More soon!
