IT HAS BEEN OVER TWO MONTHS SINCE I HAVE BLOGGED HERE.  WE ARE IN OUR 8TH WEEK OF HOMESCHOOL AND STARTING A UNIT ON THE PILGRIMS. 

THE MORE HOURS I WORK OUTSIDE THE HOME, THE MESSIER MY HOUSE GETS.  I AM STARTING ALL OVER AGAIN WITH MENUS, GROCERY LISTS, CHORE CHARTS, ETC.  I JUST WANT TO PULL MY HAIR OUT WHEN I LOOK AT MY HOUSE-UGH!!!!

I AM LOVING THIS FALL SEASON!  THE CHANGE IN THE COLORS, PUMPKIN RECIPES, ETC.  I CAN DO WITHOUT HALLOWEEN AND AM TRYING TO STEER MY KIDS AWAY FROM IT.  THAT IS GOING TO TAKE SOME WORK BECAUSE I HAVE PREVIOUSLY BEEN RAISING THEM TO PARTICIPATE IN HALLOWEEN. 

WE HAVE A BUSY MONTH AHEAD; BOTH MY DAUGHTERS' BIRTHDAYS, A VISIT FROM MY MOTHER-IN-LAW, HOPEFULLY A TRIP TO TENNESSEE.  PUT WORK AND HOMESCHOOL IN BETWEEN ALL THIS.  AND I WOULD LOVE TO GET BAKING IN BECAUSE I HAVE OLD FAVORITE RECIPES AND HAVE FOUND A LOT OF NEW ONES. 

EVERYONE HAVE A HAPPY FALL!
