Woo Hoo! I'm on a roll ~

Alright, so I'm a little behind on my posting and that's okay because at least it's only been one week and not 2 years! Baby steps...

What have I been up to you ask?

  • I spent last Friday night and Saturday day in beautiful downtown Modesto at the convention center. I was there for the Valley Home Educators convention and it was terrific. I learned so much from the speakers and was very pleased to have had the opportunity to here from my new hero. She even signed my copy of her book and took a few minutes to chat with me about home education and her schedule. It might be worth looking into booking her for an HSLG event if possible...maybe I'll mention it to my friend Liz.
  • Today, the kids and I had a park playdate with some friends...then we went swimming and came home to make dinner...Tonight one of my favorite shows is on! It's my secret shame and yet I can't seem to tear myself away from it...If I were 20 years (okay, maybe even TEN years) younger I would SO be auditioning....My other favorite show is this.
  • I'm debating whether to make something out of a Paula D. cookbook for dessert...it normally wouldn't be much of a debate, however, I'm not sure I want to invest that much butter at this time :)
  • I officially debuted the Stafford children "chore chart" and it was received with great enthusiasm! I'm not sure how much longer they'll be fighting over who gets to clean the litter box so I've got to strike while the iron's hot! [Note to self: Never mention litter boxes and hot irons in the same sentence, it's just yucky!]
