Relief. Resting. Exhaustion. Tiredness. SO glad it’s Friday night. This week was packed full of activities, as per usual at our house, but when you throw in a bit of coughing and sickness, it is so tiring. Again, I’m glad it’s over. I don’t have a thing to do for two days.
Our homestudy update meeting went well.
I spoke at a MOPS group on Thursday and that went well.
We started a new unit for the boys on Colombia and that went well.
Many of our media drive items sold on eBay this week and that went REALLY well.
(Is anyone else seeing a trend here?)
But the most exciting trivial news for me personally is that I FINALLY found a second little wooden chair for Zaza’s tea party table. I’ve been looking for one for months. I sauntered into a second-hand store on a whim and there it sat, shining its happy yellow self at me. Yes, it needs to be sanded and primed to get caught up with its sister chair and accompanying table. I’ve been saving pictures of darling hand-painted furniture for inspiration. I’ve often thought that I would love to paint children’s furniture as a hobby/money-maker… but alas, I’m too busy momentarily. Maybe when the kids are gone…. but then I’ll be painting the furniture for the grandkids. So much for money-making. Here are a few ditties that I love. I can’t wait to get started, but it will most likely be after Christmas.
