Where Does Time Go?

Can you believe it's the end of May already?!
I keep thinking about how I was going to focus on my education once we had no school deadlines. We've been so busy that I can't even remember what books or DVDs were on my list!
As I sit here and reflect on the last three months, I realize I can't complain too much. I have read a few more in the Little Britches series. (Talk about making me feel lazy!) I am halfway through Laddie which is the book our book club is discussing this month. I also have read numerous articles on gardening, attended classes on breadmaking and food storage, almost planted a garden (thanks to my husband and kids), gone camping, and kept up with my weekly commitment at the pregnancy center!
Yes, my house is a mess. Yes, I am completely behind in laundry, but I have furthered my education....some. It just hasn't all been what was on my list! And..... it hasn't occured while I suceeded in keeping a spotless house and training well behaved children!
Actually, now that I am reading this, I have made a pretty good start on my summer. Now to get the rest of the garden in, whip the house into shape (ha ha), and keep working on those well behaved children. I guess I'll save the breadmaking for winter (or at least next month).

Yes, mamabear, Danyielle told me.
I was commenting about how I needed to get over there and take them off of Steve's hands. I breathed a sigh of relief. Our dog would have done the same thing I'm afraid. I never thought about the dog being interested in them until Tyler bought his hamster. Did I tell you about that nice cage you gave him?
