Update on various things

I have thought about blogging many times over the past month but it seems some other little project or task has pulled me away and then I forget about it again. GASP! I realized today after logging on that it has been over a month....well I must do better than this. This week our family has the flu bug, the throw-up kind (ick). Thank the lord I am suffering the least so that I can take care of my family. I have finished my home-improvements for now. I painted our bedroom and bathroom after ripping off the ugly wallpaper that was there...wow what a difference. It is so serene and beautiful now, I love our room! I have managed to get a few more pages of my baby scrapbook done..which is at least a start. We have done school very informally for the past several weeks. My latest idea is to get rid of our direct tv. There is so much trash on TV and it seems the only thing we really enjoy is Jeopardy, so why pay so much to have it around? My husband is "thinking" about it....we will see, maybe we could do a month trial without it or something. We got rid of our TV when I was a kid and I remember playing games, reading and listening to radio with my parents, it was fun! Do you live without a TV? If so I would love to hear about it! Thanksgiving and Christmas are almost here! I am feeling much better now....SAD is pretty much gone until Jan/Feb. We will go to my parents for Thanksgiving day (they live only 15 min away). My husbands parents will fly out from VA for Christmas. I have decided to go back to flylady.....no other method seems to work. At least my house was clean and organized when I was following her ideas. I need to start slow as she says and just work on my "routines". That is everything new around here, I really want to strive to post more often....so check back! :)
