It's rather tedious trying to keep up with two blogs. I'm tempted to paste my Xanga blog here, but that would be "cheating," wouldn't it? I think things might grow easier when I start school.
Speaking of school, I actually had happy school-related thoughts today of schedules and the best order to do things. Am I on my way to back-to-school enthusiasm? I think I am!
Also, I won the very old Pride and Prejudice video on an Ebay auction today. It's the only version of P and P that I didn't own. It's not terribly true to the book and people wear hoop skirts, but I still wanted it to complete my collection.

don't give up on this blog. Now I've found you, I wouldn't want to lose you as a friend.
When is it that you are starting?

It is more like fluttering. I don't think I have done any cleaning in my zones this week. I am trying to keep my sink shiny, but I think it needs bleaching again. It looks a bit brown (tea stains) in places, and the hard water deposits are building up around the faucet again.
I am doing pretty well with my morning and evening routines, so far. I even made a morning routine for the kids. My push this week has been trying to get them to dress as soon as they get up. We have been remembering to lay clothes out before bed most nights.
I'd like to read the book. I'll have to see if the library has it.
The only other thing I have been able to manage is planning meals, and I am a bit stuck for next week. I may have to use some "old faithfuls" as I don't like the looks of some of the menus I got for next week. Grocery shopping is on for tomorrow, and I haven't got my list all made yet.
I just don't seem to manage much on the days we do school. Until this year, I have done main meals at lunchtime (Dh works from home), but now I don't have time to cook then. In the evenings I am tired!
Tomorrow is looking very busy. Guess I should plan a bit for it.
Blessings,
Karen
