I have been away for awhile.

Partly because we were bust finishing up the school year, partly because I needed to cut back my computer time, and partly because for the first time in my life I really found a plan for getting and keeping my house sorta tidy, and that just takes time.

The CHCHC worked wonderfully for me. We had a garage sale and made over $100. That was nice. We donated the excess to the Humane Society for their garage sale, so we get to write that off. It felt good to get all that "junk" out of the house. While the house doesn't stay as "neat as a pin," it does stay a little tidier. And the girls are getting better at picking up after themselves which has made all the difference in the world.

I am looking forward tot he next CHCHC to get to all of the things that I skipped in the first one. This one should be much easier.

We finished our first true year of HSing last week. DD6 finished Core K from Sonlight. She is a strong reader and loves school. She is happy to hav ethe break though. I am too. It's nice to have the mornings free again.

DD4 wants to start playing soccer. So we'll be signing up for that and will be starting in the fall. Whee!

Ummmmm.....did I miss anything? I guess not. Now that summer is here I hope to be a bit more consistent.....
