…what I’m going to do all day with my children gone, I’m going to scream. I’m sick to death of that question. Yeah, I’m going to sit around all day, eat bon bons and watch soap operas. Right. I have a writing career I’m trying to get off the ground. I could work full time at that. I work at our church ten hours a week. Have you seen my kitchen cabinets lately? They desperately need to be cleaned out. Then there are the two loads of laundry that need to be folded. My sauce tomatoes are finally coming in, so I have sauce to make. The weeds are threatening to overtake my garden. When they’re gone, it will be time to put the garden to bed for the winter. Plus we’re updating our house, so there’s plenty of painting to be done. I’m just going to be so bored this fall (insert sarcasm here).
And just so I can’t be accused of spending all day on the internet, I’m going to sign off and get some writing done. Watch my progress meter later today!

ha, ha…I can imagine being asked that…:) But you are a productive and busy lady, so rest in that truth.
And see you soon:)

How about this: “You can do ___________ (insert whatever the task may be)–you’re at home all day” as if I do nothing but eat chocolate and watch the soaps, which I HATE! Yes, please add it to my role as teacher, lunchroom lady, janitor, errand runner, odds and ends do-er, mom, and wife.

One day you will look back and wonder how you ever managed to homeschool! **smile**
