I have a feeling this is going to be a laughable musings post…

Around the House
I blew the leaves off the porch and swept out the garage the other day. Does that count? Oh and by turning the pumpkin decorations around so that their jack o’lantern faces point towards the wall, I now have Thanksgiving decor. Right? Right?

From the Kitchen
If it doesn’t come from a can or a delivery driver, it is not in my meal plan this week. I am also considering buying an economy pack of paper plates at Sam’s as my Boot Camp reward. Tell the environment I am sorry, but my sanity is on the edge here.

Homeschooling
What we do, we do well. Now to just fit more in our day.

On the Blog
BOOT CAMP! And I am honored to be nominated again for a Homeschool Blog Award. Vote early and vote often for your favorites!

Fitness
Yeah, pass. Next week I ban the delivery guy and am back to cycle 1 of the 17 day diet.

Plans and Schemes
*sigh* Gymnastics, dentist, voting, play date, Classical Conversations, an exhibit about the Jewish tabernacle, a trip to GG’s, a visit from relatives, maybe a mom’s night, Frontier Girls, park day and all of that is in the space of six short days.

Reading and Crafting
When Children Love to Learn: A Practical Application of Charlotte Mason’s Philosophy for Today — one of my top three favorite CM books ever.

Saying Yes
Lots and lots and lots of Halloween candy.

A Memory
Olivia contemplating her crayfish for “dissection.” I think her face says it all.
