Looking Ahead

Today is another gorgeous, mild and sunny day. I'm so cheerful when the sun is out! Our homeschool schedule resumed today, although wwe had a nice little break late morning when Tara, and her family, including in-laws came for a coffee visit. What a nice bunch! Tammy is Tara's sister-in-law, and has a blog here as well. She's a sweetie.

Thursday we go to the eye Dr. Saturday is my birthday, and my Boer goat is due to kid then as well. Should prove to be quite a day! I'm hoping for triplets again, and it seems pretty obvious I may get that wish. Poor girl is looking rather hippo-ish.

The children are eating lunch, and then we will go to town for a trip to the library and bank. I'm fermenting some cabbage and beets, and need to make soap real soon! We are almost out, and it'g going to be terrible using store-bought soap again. My, how we have gotten rustic. I need to start a pot of soup again, and bake some bread, that way we will have some nice lunches for a couple days. I think we may make pizza tonight and have a big salad with it. Doug is on shift, so we'll probably be pretty laid-back tonight.We will be  in bed early for the first time in days, and up early to finish the mountainous pile of laundry. This spring and summer there's so many fun things going on, and I still have a ppile of books I haven't read yet. This happens every year- I won't get a long stretch of time to sit and read again until winter!
So...what's on your reading pile right now? Anything good? I LOVE books, and want to hear what you are reading.

I have piles, piles of books that is! I am studying "Created to be His Helpmeet" with a friend. I am reading "The Unschooling Handbook" in a rush so I can start reading "Teaching the Trivium" which arrived last week. I also have a dozen other books sitting around with bookmarks in them but I'm reading An Encouraging Word back Issues instead.

I love your page update!
Blessings,

Glad to hear I'm not the only one with a mountain of laundry ;~) Sigh... My favorite reads of late have been the Abram's Daughters series by Beverly Lewis. They are really good - all about Amish life. I was so sad when I finished the series! I've just started another of her books called "The Postcard". So far, very good as well. I also love all the Jan Karon books set in Mitford.

Blessings,
Courtney
