Show and Tell

Posted in Show n Tell

I think I will join in this time on Canadagirls show and tell. As my husband and I were sitting outside enjoying the beautiful day and my hubby spotted our cat hidding in the Dogwood tree. She is such a nut! I just had to share!  

I hope everyone enjoys show and tell this week. I can't wait to see what everyone else has to share.

Hello Everyone

I can't believe it has been so long since I have posted here. I have really missed everyone and truly can't explain why I haven't blogged in awhile, I just haven't.

We have been keeping busy with house, horses, dogs and school plus the homeschool group (HERE is the blog for that). We had an awesome field trip this past week. It was a lot of fun. It is all posted at the blog. We are looking forward to some great trips this summer.

The kids and I have received our Tomato seeds from space and will be planting them tomorrow. I can't wait to see them grow. I wanted to plant them last week but didn't get around to it. Isn't that the way it goes sometime. You just have so much to do you don't always get around to the fun stuff.? Well, tomorrow we WILL.

DH has been working around the property, clearing more land so that there is more grass for the horses to graze. He and the children have done a great job. I bet they have cleared another acre already. The weather has been so beautiful, we have gotten much needed rain but have had blue skies and warm sunshine in between. We welcome the rain!

How have the rest of you been? I plan to take some time this weekend to catch up on blogs but want you all to know that I have been thinking about you. Have a blessed weekend and KEEP IN TOUCH.

BFS assignment #23

For this weeks assignment it was decided to take an idea from a fellow BFS'r. "I think it would be interesting to find out if some of the other ladies have sunk their teeth into something new in the last year or so, what are they enthralled with, what has claimed the fires of their passion."  You can post pictures or as many things as you'd love to start doing for YOURself. 

Here is MINE: I would have to say that the fire of passion for me is to write homeschool curriculum and drawing. I used to attend art classes in high school but never pursued it much after that. Well my dear Friend got me hooked on it again this year by doing Illustration Friday. I know my drawings aren't the greatest right now but they are getting better. After 20 some odd years of not drawing and having health issues that sometime enable me to write let alone draw, I think they are coming along OK. PLUS I get to attend a workshop with my dear friend this summer that I am totally looking forward to and THAT will help me learn water colors again. Ohhhh I am so excited.

I guess you can say my FIRE has been lit!

What is your answer to the assignment? Look forward to reading all my BFS classmates assignments.

Just poppin in to say hello

Posted in Daily Rambles

Hello everybody

It has been awhile since I have just blogged to blog so I thought I would do so today.  It has been a busy time here with the starting of our summer curriculum, preparing for the Girl Scout bridging ceremony, writing more Unit Studies for the homeschool group, and just the norm of living on a farm. I have to say though that I don't mind being a little busy it helps keep my mind off things less desireable,. like my health. hehhe

Today is such a beautiful day outside I think Hubby and I are going to start the raised bed box. I can't wait to get the garden going. I really want to succeed at it this year.

Well I hope everyone is having a wonderful week. Don't forget to stop and smell the flowers (what out for those allergies though)

Love to all

Secret Sister revealed herself and Tagged me too!! YAAHOOO!!!

Well I received an email from my dear Secret Sister and oh how wonderful she is. I know we will stay in touch for a long long time.

She also tagged me for the Five of Everything list. EEEeekkkkk Susie  Stillbecommingus . Thanks for thinking of me friend!!!

1. The rules of the game get posted at the beginning.
2. Each player answers the questions about themselves.
3. At the end of the post the player than tags 5 people and posts their names, than goes to their blogs and leaves a comment, letting them know they done got tagged and to ask them to play and read your blog.

What was I doing 10 years ago- 1998

  • 1.I was giving birth to my third child while my husband was out at Sea (he was Navy they sent him home that very night)
  • 2. I was living in Florida raising 5 children and homeschooling one!
  • 3. We moved when the baby was almost one year old from Florida to Virginia. 
  • 4. I was a member of MOPS and enjoying assisting my dearest friend with the crafts for each meeting.
  • 5. My family and I were preparing for DH's retirement. YAHOOO

5 things on my to-do list today -

  • 1. Update my blog.
  • 2. Finish writing the Unit Study for next week
  • 3. Draw the logo for the homeschool group so we can get our T-shirts made.
  • 4. Spend time with the children talking about this weeks plans.
  • 5. Make a couple of Rag dolls to keep in stock.

Snacks I enjoy -

  • 1. Ohhh…I love, love, love Sam's Choice trail mix!
  • 2. popcorn
  • 3. Wheat Tortilla chips with spinach dip
  • 4. cheddar cheese on crackers 
  • 5. Crushed ICE! Actually chewing ice is my all time snack, sometimes I even flavor the ice hehee 

Things I would do if I were a billionaire -

  • 1. I would give LOTS of money to those who are less fortunate!
  • 2. I would build a barn for the horses with a loft on top so that I can have a place to go and be quiet!!!
  • 3. I would buy my husband the truck of his dreams!
  • 4. I would build a Log House up on Dad's hill.  
  • 5. I would set my children up financially and prepare homes for them here on the farm!

Five of my bad habits -

  • 1. I guess chewing Ice would fall in this catagory too. ha
  • 2. I am very focused when I am working on a project and have a hard time managing to balance everything when I am involved in something big!
  • 3. I drink Soda but I am trying to quit. AGAIN :-( UGH!
  • 4. I have tons of Faith except for when it comes to my health. For some reason I can't hand that over to God and allow Him to keep it.
  • 5. I am so tired of taking meds (have all my life) that sometimes I just don't take them or 'forget' to take them and then regret it!

Five places I have lived -

  • 1. Chicago subburbs.
  • 2. New York
  • 3. New Orleans
  • 4. Florida
  • 5. Virginia

Five jobs I’ve had -
