May is Graduation Month

Posted in Family, Homeschooling, and Thoughts

I’m going to apologize in advance because, during the month of May, I’ll be sharing a lot of things that are graduation related as we prepare for Munchkin’s graduation. I have plans for graduation gift ideas, open house ideas, decorations, and a variety of other things. Hopefully, you won’t get tired of me posting about everything leading up to the graduation as well as the graduation and open house. It’s a pretty big event for us, so we’re rather excited about celebrating this milestone in Munchkin’s life. While we know that Munchkin will be attending community college for at least…

What Day is It?

Posted in Family, and Thoughts

The last couple of weeks we’ve been finding ourselves struggling to keep track of what day it is. Changes in our schedules have just thrown us for a loop. Munchkin’s TaeKwonDo has switched from Monday, Wednesday, Friday to Tuesday, Thursday, Friday which has definitely caused a bit of confusion as we adjust to it. Our Azure Standard delivery switched from Thursday to Wednesday this month. (It’s been on Thursday for as long as I’ve been ordering.) I kept thinking it was Thursday all day yesterday. We’re trying to nail down our packout and moving date, but D has been so…
