My daughter A had the day off today, but my husband and our exchange student did not, so it was just A and I. So we bonded! We got Taco Bell for lunch and then went on a shopping spree to the fabric store since it's closing soon. I got so much fabric! I got … Continue reading Great Day

Changed Our Minds
We have changed our minds about homeschooling next year. Long story, but we decided that homeschooling would not be best for A for now. So now we are between two different schools to send her to. One is a clear first choice, but we haven't interviewed with them yet. The other school is also very … Continue reading Changed Our Minds
A Lovely Day
This morning I slept in a little bit. I got up a little after 8. My daughter's sewing teacher came over. While she was doing sewing I was talking to someone from the school district about home school resources and activities. I got some good information. Homeschooling is feeling more real. I've homeschooled for a … Continue reading A Lovely Day
Productive Day
I've been feeling more energetic the past couple of days. I've been creating. I have been getting housework done. I made a big lasagna the other day, so we are eating leftovers tonight. I took A to the fabric store to get thread for her sewing machine. She has her first sewing lesson tomorrow. I … Continue reading Productive Day

I wanted something colorful and bright. I ended up on Etsy, where I saw digital planners compatible with the Android app, Penly. They had … Continue reading New Digital Planner!
Dreary, Colorsplash, Homeschooling

I can enjoy an afternoon downpour laced with lightning, but a day so dark from the start that you don't know the sun has risen until well after dawn is another thing. Days like this suck. I adore the Pacific Northwest, … Continue reading Dreary, Colorsplash, Homeschooling

My head is clogged. I want to write about cleaning and productivity today, but honestly, I'm in bed. … Continue reading Sick Today
My Planner!
I am back to using a planner again. I'm using one that was custom designed for me several years ago by an Etsy shop owner who has since closed. It isn't completely perfect for me now. Because I could use more space in the homeschooling columns for next year, and I want the cleaning section … Continue reading My Planner!
Homeschooling
I have decided to home school my daughter next year. Right now, she's in a school that's really great and we like it, so she's going to continue until we move. But once we move later this year homeschooling will begin. So far I am enjoying planning our homeschool year. I am adding books to … Continue reading Homeschooling
