I'm starting to feel a bit overwhelmed with everything I've got going on right now. Hopefully, making a list and seeing the progress will keep me from panic. Here is last week's list. I think I'm going to drop a couple of things off the list. They'd be nice to do, but are a little low on the overall priority list.
Supervise completion of fair entries and drop them off.
Plan menus for next month. (Here's my method.)
Write Nature's Friend review.
Write Guardian Angel Press review.
Read through Chapter 11 of Called to Worship.
I think I overdid it on the book reviews. Oops. I have five to do. (That's not counting my Homeschool Crew reviews.) Most of the book reviews don't have due dates, but I want to get all the books read and reviewed by December 1. I will NOT order any more books until spring. You all heard me?
Now that I've typed everything out, it really isn't all that much. The two curriculum reviews I'm planning on completing aren't actually due this week, I'm just trying to make sure I stay ahead. Of course I haven't actually put much of my day to day stuff on the list. (Like homeschooling my kids, laundry, dinner, violin lessons, Kids4Truth...) Oops, starting to panic again.
There is definitely something about typing it out that makes it all real, y'know? In MANY ways, not just my to-do list, but somethings typing out feelings towards things, like frustrations, even when I blogged about my weight loss, sharing my struggles with others, it helped me! I saw it black and white, before me, staring back at me, getting it off my chest. It's so cleansing and helpful.
My days are never dull as a homeschooling mother of 4 children. This blog contains views of our life, reviews of homeschool curriculum, book reviews, and helpful hints for homeschooling.
