Hello Everyone, Hope all is Well

Posted in Life

My grandmother was admitted into the hospital after a bad fall the other night. She will be there another day or two, then she will be at a rehabilitation place for a while. Luckily, she didn't break anything. Unfortunately, she hurt both legs, her left knee, and sprained her right ankle. I spent the entire evening at the emergency room the evening that it happened, until just after eleven, then most of the day yesterday and the day before in her room.

We are on vacation from schoolwork this week. I may need a couple of days next week to recover from this vacation.

I have been doing a lot of walking this past week. Miles and miles. In an effort to lose this access weight that I have collected, I am exercising more and trying to eat better. I am not always on track with this, but I am doing better than before.

I have us set up with new cleaning routines, and am making a great effort with organizing.

My name is Shannon, homeschool mom to Skye and Zowie who are doing 12th and 11th grade work. This blog will be used to help new and veteran homeschoolers, and to record what we are up to. It will also be used to inform people of our website updates. I am a proud member of themompack.com, where moms help promote other moms businesses. A must for any mom who has her own business. It is free to join.
