2022

So, maybe I will. Or maybe I won't.

I want to-- I do. I want to start writing again, but will I?  Can I? 

I started this blog so many years ago.  My boys were so young and well, so was I.  But as Facebook became more prominent, I started writing less here and more there.  But that has grown so wearisome. So many ads. So little satisfaction. 

Our lives have changed a lot since I last wrote. 

My oldest son is engaged. Yes, I am getting a DAUGHTER. All that testosterone, only to be rewarded by estrogen. Glory be! And if that is not enough for 2022, he is also graduating from law school. It'll be nice to have a lawyer in the family.  You know, to help me get out of all the scrapes I get myself in.  haha

Our middler is halfway through college and is currently in a relationship with adventure.  Adventure takes a lot of time (and money) and just doesn't seem to leave enough room for girls. At least not seriously.  But, he's only 21 so I haven't lost all hope. 

And, can you believe my baby is a senior??  Oh, the pain that brings my heart! He's planning to major in Chemistry with all the intentions of going to medical school. 

So that leaves Dr. B and me.  

We will be celebrating 30 years of marriage this summer.  I am so thankful for the gift of him. 

That is a very brief synopsis.  I'll try to be back.  I spend about 10 hours a day as a student myself these days, but this may be just the catharsis I need. 

Until then.

February 27 Update

I just called to see if Amy wanted to blog anything today, but at the moment she is talking on the phone to her wonderful friend, Deb Rose. Deb and her husband, Brian, used to live in Louisville several years ago. They were our very best friends. If I were talking to the Roses this evening, I would tell them that Amy is desperately scared. The docs have given her a very stiff dose of antibiotics, but as of this moment, her body temp is climbing once again. Her primary doctor told her he fears that this infection may be fungal in nature. I don’t completely understand all of the implications, except that we are shooting at this infection with our biggest guns, but it just keeps on coming. In her introspective manner, she shared with me today that if she had known she would lose her sight, she would have invested it more wisely in the things she read and watched: “What if I go completely blind and can’t read the Bible? I have to get more serious about memorizing.” This morning a do

March 2: HOME!!

From his vantage point at our front door, three-year old Seth delightedly shrieked, "Mommy," and I turned in time to see Amy being driven down our long driveway. Our three blond-haired boys buried their faces in their mother. Even the house sighed contentedly. Amy's home. A Happy Husband, David

Homeschooling Curriculum Help?

Shannon is hosting a backwards edition of what-works-for-me Wednesday , where you can ask for advice/ or suggestions instead of giving them. Yeah! I need some advice. David and I are really praying and considering homeschooling our boys, K4 and grades 2 and 6 —beginning this fall. Can anybody recommend a curriculum, either as a whole or as a subject, that you are crazy about that doesn’t make you crazy? Secondly, if you could give one tip for “survival” what would that be?
