Whoops. Heh.

Um. So. Where have I been, anyway?!

Is ‘PREGNANT’ a good enough excuse for not posting? …No? Well crap.

I have been doing a lot, really I have, and occasionally I have plenty of time to blog. Then I sit here, right here with this ‘Write’ tab open and I can’t think of ANYTHING to write. Nothing at all. It’s ridiculous and insane and I hate it, and also I always forget that I have been trying to keep a list of post ideas in my little red notebook, and I just now remembered it, and can you see now why it’s nearly impossible for me to keep track of anything. Right.

What was I talking abou – oh, never mind.

So the kids are done with school for the summer, and we have made a rather momentous decision regarding their education. We are going to be homeschooling them again. I know this is NOT a decision to take lightly, and it does not NECESSARILY reflect on the overall academic quality of the school district we are in (although that is certainly part of it); but that is an entire post unto itself, and provided I can actually REMEMBER to write about it, I will. And I ought to remember, because it is so extremely important to me. My kids are precious and wonderful and strong and intelligent and they deserve the best education and social structure that I can give them, and we are willing to make the sacrifices necessary to make that happen for them.

Also, Father’s Day was yesterday, and I made homemade fettucine alfredo with chicken, and if I could have died and gone to heaven as a proper reaction to its deliciousness, I would have. But then I couldn’t blog about it later, and all you poor people would suffer as a result. Poor you! Don’t worry, I’m still here!

Coming soon: photo proof that I DID, indeed, cut my hair! Also, a pregnancy post over at This Mommy Gig! (I posted one last week too and forgot to link it, haha I’m stupid, here’s the link: Pregnant Update: Seven Weeks and change)

I am enjoying following you on TMG also, but I was ecstatic to see you had posted here too.

As a public school educator, I have mixed feelings about homeschooling, but I admire your dedication to doing what’s right for your kids. I hope you will keep us posted. c

@cajun, THANK YOU for your support. I feel particularly blessed that I know so many educators, so I feel that I have a very good group of people to ask for advice or opinions, whenever that comes up.

I’ll definitely be keeping everyone posted!

Well here’s a post idea for you: You STILL haven’t told us about your wedding or posted photos or anything. *tapping foot here* ;)
