Creating a Meaningful Morning
There was a time in my life when gathering for homeschooling morning time or circle time was easy...ish.
This is not that time.
I’m reading an actual book!
I picked up Endurance: Shackleton’s Incredible Voyage {affiliate} at the library last week (along with a bagful of other books you know I will probably renew for 9 weeks and then try to panic-read when they are due in 4 days – this does not bode well for my reading challenge!). I have wanted to read this one for ages.

I really do think of my posting as writing to you, my readers, not just throwing things out to the great wide web, although it may seem that way at times.
It was a very “life” week.
Self Care at 7
What is Self Care at 7?
Every day in February, I will be posting a little self care tidbit at 7 AM and 7 PM on Twitter, and occasionally Facebook and Instagram. Just something quick that you can most likely do right then and there, or with some small effort like getting up for hand lotion or a drink of water.
February is a month focused on love, and I want my readers to not forget themselves! …
Reboot Update
a.k.a It’s hard to blog about homeschooling when I feel like we aren’t doing any.
Is there a word for a non-update?
