I've Got a Lot of Balls...in the air


This week we started kindergarten and it is way harder than I thought it was going to be, so I may have to start drinking in the evening.  Violet is enrolled in a virtual charter school.  I know some homeschoolers will say I have sold out to the man, but when the man provides ALL the books AND a computer AND an internet stipend, he's pretty hard to resist.  I LOVE free shit! Anywho, I am still working out how to make this curriculum bend to my will, so I may be a bit of a ghost.

I got myself a few photo gigs and I have been juggling school work and photoshop work and housework and that has left me very little time to read blogs or write blogs or even fantasize about posts in my head.  I have set a goal of writing one post a week and I am going to pare down my blog reader to the bare bones.  Don't worry. If you are reading this, I will probably continue to read your blog.

I started going to a belly dancing class with my friend E and that has been fun and challenging, without making me want to kill the instructor.  I highly recommend it. It is a subtle art form, so there is ZERO workout culture, pep-talking. I hate that crap.

We are now official members of a large learning co-op, as well as a preK co-op......soooooo, I find myself busier than I have been in a looong time.  Remember, I don't multi-task well.

Here's where I drop the bomb.

I am going to discontinue Wardrobe Wednesday.  It has run its course for me and it's time to move on.  If anyone would like to take it over, let me know and I will link to your blog and send participants your way.

M'kay?

  1. Love the shot of Violet. You sound like you do have a lot on your plate. Belly dancing sounds like fun.

  2. Princess has that exact swimsuit!! But I digress... Yes, you do have a lot going on. It's hard, but you will find your balance and the way that homeschooling will work for you. I'm always happy to answer unschooling questions or you can check out my http://unschoolingroyalty.blogspot.com blog. ;)

  3. Life has been crazy here too but I'm hoping some of that craziness goes with the children when they hop on the school for the first time in months TODAY.

    I have heard that belly dancing is lots of fun and a good way to exercise but not sure that I would EVER have the coordination for it. Or is it easy? I tried a step aerobics class once and made a fool of myself by constantly tripping over my step. :0

    I can't believe no one has snatched up WW yet! I would love to give it a good home if your offer still stands.
