Home Again, Home Again…

Posted in Family, and Thoughts

Coming home from a camping trip is always bittersweet.  We love being out together as a family with no distractions.  It’s nice to come home, but we miss those special times. The trailer has been unloaded and put back in storage.  Our living room is full of bags to be unpacked and laundry to be done.  Tonight, we’ll relax after our journey home and tackle those things later…. Next week, I’ll post more pictures from our trip.  I’ll also share the many places we visited.  Have a wonderful evening!!

Working and Listening

Posted in Christian Life, and Homemaking

Ever since I found the audio Bible online, I have been listening to scripture while I do my housework or other tasks that do not require me to think.  I can listen to the scripture passage and still get things done.  I was struggling when I was trying to do everything plus read the longer scripture passages for the Bible in 90 Days challenge.  Now, that I don’t feel the least bit stressed about it, I’m enjoying the challenge again. I only wish I would have done this a bit earlier in the challenge.  The funny thing is that I’m…

Busy Reading

Posted in Thoughts

I have a stack of books that I need to read (and review),  so today, while Munchkin played, I sat down and read.  I read for several hours.  It was fun to relax and just read as I really enjoy being able to get into a good book. Today, I was focusing on a book series for Munchkin.  I like to screen books when possible for Munchkin.  Since I’m a fast reader, I’m normally able to get through one of her books in an hour or two.  It’s sad how much garbage is out there for kids to read.  Thankfully,…

Being Supermom?

Posted in Homemaking, Homeschooling, and Thoughts

The TOS Crew question of the week was “How do homeschoolers find time for everything?”  Well, seeing how I didn’t actually get the chance to write up my response to the question in time, I would have to say that we don’t. lol! We all have decisions to make about our time and priorities.  It’s pretty much impossible to get everything done that we’d like to accomplish each day even if we cut out all tv or other things viewed as time wasters. We always have one more thing that needs to be done or could be done. After my…

A Beautiful Saturday Morning

Posted in Family, and Thoughts

Munchkin had a blast at her 50s night at Awana.  She and her friends enjoy their time there each Wednesday night.  Next week is movie night.  They’ll be watching a movie and having snacks.  Munchkin volunteered me to make cookies.  I told her that next time she needs to ask me first. lol! On Friday afternoon, we picked D up from the airport.  It’s nice to have him home.  We spent most of the afternoon relaxing.  I finished up the aprons for my sister (yes, I just now finished them) while D and Munchkin watched a little tv together.  Well,…
