Thursday

Cleaning! I wanted to straighten up the playroom. Which lead to cleaning out some cupboards in the kitchen and storing the canned goods there.

Which lead to cleaning another cupboard to find space for some odds and ends.

Which lead to a box of 'stuff' being donated to the local mission downtown.

Tuesday

I decided it was time to clean up my pile of papers. So I organized and tossed and took care of paperwork this morning.
That braid of hair?? Oh, that is my daughter's. We still have to get the right kind of envelope to send it in to Locks of Love. One more thing to add to the To-Do list.

Monday!

The youngest likes to go outside. She often begs us to go out. So today we put on some too-big-for-her boots and her sisters took her out to play in the backyard. Peaceful quiet inside for a little while.

Friday

The kids need jeans! Do you know how long it takes to find some that fit? More than an hour or two.

Thursday

Ran 5 miles. Rested the rest of the day.

Wednesday

Fellowship day for Bible study. This was the item I took to share with the group.
My parents got it as a wedding gift back in the 50s and my mom passed it on to me.

Making special cookies for two reasons - a holiday this week, and math class.

Saturday

My little girl had her first ever basketball game this morning. She's the blur in the photo.

Friday

I had to take the Boy in for an orthodontist appointment again today. He had to replace a retainer he lost, and then found broken. No photos - the staff didn't seem to take to the idea of the paparazzi.

Thursday

Off to my mom's to get some oranges - another great thing about homeschooling is you can go when you want to.

Back at it today. School work. And juggling the needs of 4 girls.

I got a late morning run, so I had a breakfast of champions, with a little champ, at this time.
