Menu Plan Monday on Tuesday that I planned on Friday

I get things done.  Not always on time, but my Swedish Lutheran heritage requires me to feel debilitating guilt if I don’t do something well and it ends up being an imposition for someone.  Oh!  The horror of being an imposition!  So, I did my meal plan last week but because of my attention deficit, [...]

Week One Down!

We just wrapped up Week One!  We are on a 4 day a week schedule that will take us into next summer.  It’s giving us a very easy pace.  We are up by 7ish every morning and school starts at 8.  We’re finished by 2:30, including chores. 
I’m going to highlight DD14’s schedule this week. (And a [...]

Wordless Wednesday…kinda

Our new curriculum.  It’s consummed the last three days of my life, but we’re ready!  My kids are actually looking forward to starting school. 

You wanna see ugly jewelry?

So there’s a contest at MomDot.com.  They want to see ugly jewelry.  Having grown up in the 80’s, this is a no brainer for moi.  It took some time to narrow down the most ugly, but I am confident I chose the winner here. 

What’s up with my hair? 

And why do I look so pissed?  I [...]

Menu Plan Monday

It’s Menu Plan Monday at Org Junkie and here in the Village.  We’re getting back in our routine now that all the troops are home.  We are scheduled to start school next Monday if I can get my act together.  I am going to start making my own wheat bread every week.  We’re trying to [...]

Don’t faint.

I’m back with the whole FlyLady/Decluttering/Decrapping O’rama.  Or Oloosa?  Anyway, look at what I did in 5 hours and 27 minutes!
     
I had to really delve deep.  You know, ask myself the hard questions.  Like:

Do I really need to keep the 13 irregular sized 4X6 note cards for which I don’t have a holder or just [...]

Edouard Update!

Maniacal indifference is sweeping the region as we are pounded with drizzle.  Good thing we’re stocked up!
