I am Not as Strong as I appear. I enjoy weakness from time to time. We are a homeschooling, special needs family of 7. My 4th son has a Congenital Heart defect, and my oldest has ADHD. We like to find old things and make them new, so we bought a house that was in desperate need of repair, then we doubled the sized of it. This project is well over 9 years long, with still plenty to do, and has pushed my fear of heights over the limit too many times. The best part is I am still alive to talk about it! Some of my passions are my children, and making Jewelry. When life gets stressful (often times stress induced by children!) opening up my bins of beads to create something beautiful that will soon bring joy to someone else is all I need. That and chocolate. I am just hanging on by the seat of my pants. Stick around & let's get to know each other.

10 Things Tuesday

April 5, 2011

Here is another 10 Things Tuesday blog hop that is too late to be a blog hop. This of course means that I have failed at at least 2 of my 10 things to do from last week. I suppose since I am late to bed, I need to get this ball rolling and get my week organized.

  1. In bed with a book between 10-11pm. Which means that…
  2. I need to get my blog posts done first thing in the morning, and not the last thing at night.
  3. Get ALL of the clean clothes put away. Yes, they are all clean :)
  4. Homeschool lessons are almost caught up! I think we can get back on track this week. YeeHaw!
  5. Finish cleaning & organizing my studio/office space, I put a huge dent in it and it is looking and feeling great.
  6. Get outside and get some yard work done. Not sure what yet, just need to be outside getting dirty.
  7. I think I have enough cotton yarn left for 2 more kitchen washcloths, gotta get those finished and work on the bathroom ones (yes, still!)
  8. All 4 boys got hair cuts last week! They look sharp :) Wing Nut was hoping for a Harry Potter hair cut from year 4, but I think I cut the top too short. He loves it though and that is all that matters. Now I need to find some time to mix up some Henna and dye my hair.
  9. Still don’t have a place to put my baby plants :( Where oh where will my little plants go?
  10. The dishwasher, coffee pot and washing machine have not had a vinegar bath in months! The wait for coffee dripping through the plugged up coffee pot is too much for me to handle in the morning.

 

So what projects are you working on this week?

    1 & 2 are for me too! I get up between 4:30 and 5:00 every morning to write, but I hardly ever have time to post on my blog until evening, after I come home from work. Then I’m up late trying to get it done, which means not only is there little time to read before bed, but I’m also tired the next morning when it all begins again!

      Exactly! And with the earlier sunrise these days, the kids are getting up even earlier.
