~ Weekly Wrapup for Week Ending June 27th ~

From the Heart:

This week, I realized that I have been spending too much time thinking about the past and worrying about the future.  So, I decided in order to stop this bad habit (sin), I would repeat to myself, "Today has its own worries!", when my thoughts start to go where I know they should not go. 

On the Homefront:

We had a busy week!  Not only did we have a special visitor, the kids went to VBS in the evenings, we went swimming 2 times, went to the zoo, and library!  I can now understand why I am feeling so tired today! 

In the School Room:

I must order our books!  I must!  I don't know why I have been putting this off.  I am excited to get that big box from Sonlight.  I also need to sit down and make up a Science schedule.  We have been continuing to read aloud as a family, although not every night with VBS this week. 

In the Kitchen:

I made my family chocolate chip cookies this week.  Tomorrow, I need to make more for a family reuion on Sunday.  I also need to be sure to make a menu plan for next week.  This week was hit or miss, a couple nights.  It is important for me to cook so that my husband will have lunch leftovers the next day.  If I make things like waffles or pizza, there are not any leftovers. 

In the Literary Scene:

I went to the library 2 times this week.  I found an interesting book about living off the land.  I am reading it now.  If it turns out to be a good book, I will let you know the title.  I don't want to tell now, because I hate mentioning a book and then finding out that it is a flop. 

I hope to receive, today, two books that I ordered this week.  I will also show those on the blog a little later.  (tease)

 

Summer goals:

I am making great progress.  I am spending time with friends, reading great books, and working on the house a little.

I love getting a box from Sonlight as well! So fun to open! I actually have been able to find some used Sonlight 6 stuff for next year.
I like your garden photos, pretty butterflies! Is that yellow flower a 'bird feeder' or does it attract butterflies?

I loved reading your update! I hope you keep joining us! I don't know what is keeping you from making your order, either... Man I was obsessed until I made my order. This will be my last week before swimming lessons four days a week... yikes! I really want to get stuff done and school ready and some fun projects planned, etc...

Have a great weekend.

First of all Jenn, I just have to say your avatar picture is adorable! The girls dresses in your first photo are cute and such a sweet pict too.
Okay, if your "livin off the land" book is good please let us know the title as I love that kinda stuff. I've got big dreams of being more self'sufficient, just don't have everyone on board here :-).
Hope your temps are getting a little cooler...ours are.
Blessings to you and yours! Julie
