Boo!

Did I scare you? It's been a little while since coming here. Well, we DID start schoool,ya' know? So I've been very busy. The good news is that the garden has slowed down a lot. That is until the next planting starts producing. But with dailies of schooling, cleaning, cooking and disciplining...mixed with play and church our lives are full.

I weighed this morning after a little while of not dieting. To my delight I am down to 152.1! That and someone commenting that I have lost weight gave me a boost to move forward. I will take one number at a time. I am excited to soon be 151.? and then 150.? and then 149.? I don't know how long this will take as I am obviously a fly by night dieter. Wish I could do like Jessica on the blog I shared earlier. That girl is a' smokin' dieter. I usually do fine maintaining but it's so against the flesh to have a defecit in eating. Ya' know?

School is coming slowly but surely. We still have yet to get a full day in. But we are working here and there and thus making some progress. That's where the discipline comes in with keeping a tight schedule. I want the house cleaned, the children taught, yummy food to eat, time to relax and enjoy each other, place to go...this all takes time. This all takes discipline!

Today we are going for our monthly grocery shop to Sam's Club. That takes a big chunk of change but we save in the long run.

We have been very busy here, too. I am working on getting us back into our school schedule and our garden is just beginning to really produce. We had a slow start to the season here.
