We are starting homeschool in a few days.


We are starting homeschool kindergarten in a few days and I couldn't be more excited about parts of it and more scared about other parts of it.  I've got my curriculum picked out.  I've made a bunch of laminated things.  I've got an online thing selected that we'll be using.  I've also purchased extra coffee, and snacks.  Wish us luck!

So Come On...

"So Come On..."  -Death Cab for Cutie, Trasatlanticism 
There are only four days left in 2019.  How are you going to spend them?  I am planning out several things for 2020, and I cannot wait to get started on the New Year.  Hence, The Lesson Plans for Living.  

I was going to wait until after New Years 2020 to post this, but I am feeling rather nostalgic about things right now.  So here we go!

I just did something that I've wanted to do for a couple of years... About 15 minutes ago, I renewed my domain and I'm writing once again.  I am so proud of myself for taking this opportunity and this leap of faith despite not having everything figured out quite yet.

I had completely forgotten about the blog that I started several years ago called "The Adventures of Myself".  And when I say it was a blog, it was literally one post.  What happened, I can assume, is that graduate school started back up and life happened.  I got busy and forgot about it, which is typical for me.  

Nearly a decade later, I am going to attempt to not quit what I start.  It was a goal nine years ago, and I am going to continue with it into 2020.  

Below is a copy and pasted version of "The Adventures of Myself" and the one post that I wrote on January 4, 2011.  I was a newlywed at the time and in graduate school full-time.  Its been a lifetime since then, but my goals this year are pretty much the same.  

Here is to 2020 and actually doing the things that are my goals.

“Our words have power, but our actions shape our lives.”
― Rachel Hollis, Girl, Wash Your Face: Stop Believing the Lies About Who You Are so You Can Become Who You Were Meant to Be
This is a brainstorming list of all the things I need to do after about three days of basically being a lazy napping sloth around the house.  It's going to be rainy and we'll likely be stuck inside, so it's the perfect kind of day today to do projects like this.   All of Norah's laundry will be put away in drawers and her closet spaceAll of Sarah's laundry will be put away in drawers and her closet spaceAll of Chris's laundry will be put away in drawers and in his closet spaceAll of the dishes will be washedI will cook dinner tonight - Spaghetti and SaladI will give Winnie his kitten shotsI will read 3 chapters of my homework bookI will work on my family's updated budget spreadsheet for 2020I will work on my schedule for next week in regards to teachingI will lesson plan like I am g…
