About Me

My photo
Hi! I'm Amy. I'm a S.A.H.M. of 2 boys, 3 dogs, and a multitude of froglets in my tiny garden pond. We are a homeschooling family (the boys - there's not much hope for those dogs and the frogs do quite well for themselves). I'll getting around to finding a purpose for my blog eventually. Right now it's just a random collection of thoughts and rants about parenting, mostly.

too many blogs, not enough time

How sad is it that I have at least three different blogs to post to? One is a fandom journal on Livejournal that I used to post regularly to, but I'm not feeling the fandomness lately. I also posted personal stuff, but I'm thinking of switching to Blogger for that...after all, I've had this blog for years and have hardly used it. I've got one on Journalfen, but I haven't posted regularly to it at all, and I only set it up during a fit of pique with Livejournal. Then there's my fanfic journal on Livejournal, too, so that makes four... Does that make me a blog-ho?

I haven't had much time to post anything anywhere, lately. Colin and I took the month of June off from homeschool for summer break, then we started back in July. We have had a couple of breaks since then...one short one to go to Disney for a couple of days in July, then we went to Alligator Point in August. We took a Fall Break at the beginning of October because Jay had a few days off, too. And in the meantime, my mom had knee replacement surgery, so I've been visiting with her more often than usual.

Colin and I finally seem to be settling into a decent routine for school. I've selected a curriculum and implemented it, and he's doing pretty well with it. I'm not sure that it's not too dull...I need to see about getting out to do fun stuff more often. We went to Monkey-Joe's last week with our friends and had a great time --well, the kids did...I was afraid I was going to get stuck in one of the jump-castles, able to go neither forward nor backwards. Rhyon, of course, scrambled up the huge climbing wall like it was nothing, as did Colin. I had a few more problems with it, and the shorter hill we had climbed over to get there didn't have climbing steps going the other way. It was kind of embarassing, but I finally made it over and down the slide.

This week...we've all got the crud, but I think we're getting over it quickly, thank goodness.
