Well....the title is self explanatory. The answer: A LOT! Lol! We are homeschooling still, I help my husband run our company, I am still homemaking, and some other things are in the works. Along with my usual duties, we are trying to get over stomach flu, colds, and find our normal again. (Hoping we'll be… Continue reading What’s Going On?!

Finding Me
It's the middle of December, and I'm assessing several things about myself, my year, my routine, my schedule, the demands on me, my health...well you get the picture. So here is what I've come up with so far. As far as my energy levels that were very lacking earlier this year, I found my fitness… Continue reading Finding Me
Being Real
I'm not going to start this post with making excuses for my absence. I'm going to start with just being real. I have not posted any blogs lately, because I don't feel motivated to. Period. I would like to be consistent, but my current season of life does not allow me to. I am homemaking,… Continue reading Being Real
Schedule Update
So at the beginning of this school year, I made a post about trying out a new daily schedule. If you haven't read about it, you can check that out here. I had said I would come back and give you guys a report about how well or how poorly it is working for us.… Continue reading Schedule Update
This Bittersweet Chapter
I know that I keep coming up MIA, and you were probably looking for new content like, "Oh, here she goes again!" I'm like Houdini and I disappear, then reappear from out of nowhere. In all seriousness, I just finished going through my most difficult pregnancy and delivery of my life. Not difficult as in… Continue reading This Bittersweet Chapter

As in many homeschools, we have changed from some of the publishers we used in previous years and are trying to see… Continue reading Our 2018-2019 Curriculum Choices
The Homeschool Cafeteria
I have to start this post with some honesty. I like meal plans, but I don't like meal planning. And I may have a meal plan prepared for my family, but it is hard to get them to go along with it every single day. This includes my husband, who will make a special request… Continue reading The Homeschool Cafeteria
Our 2018-2019 School Schedule
For this upcoming school year, I started planning back in late April, early May. I purchased all of my kids' textbooks ahead of time and I am done with our lesson plan for at least the first nine weeks. (Most of it is done for the entire year!) With baby 5 on the way, I… Continue reading Our 2018-2019 School Schedule
Mama’s Meat Sauce
A few weeks ago I spoke about a meat sauce that I make and freeze for easy meals on busy days. I put it in either lasagna, baked spaghetti, or just over pasta. It's just a simple thaw and use meal that can help make a chaotic to make more sense. I must make one… Continue reading Mama’s Meat Sauce
My Growing Journey
So I have been M.I.A. for a little while and truly have been intending to get a few post up these last few weeks, but I try to keep my priorities straight and know that this does not come first for me. I like coming and clearing my thoughts, sharing my hopes, dreams, and even… Continue reading My Growing Journey
