Finished Living Room and How to NOT Recover Your Couch
I can’t believe it. Amidst the graduation preparation I managed to finish the living room.
New Adventures
…Alarmed, we checked the gas stove — sure enough, one of the burners was on, but the spark had not been lit. It had been on since we cooked the taco meat for dinner, three hours before.
So, what do you do now?
As a homeschool graduate, I get that question a lot. It goes along with, “How do you spend your time?” “What do you do all day?” “Do you have any big plans?” and the always frustrating, “What college are you going to?”
Welcome
Welcome to my new Blawg. No, that’s not a typo, “Blawg,” as I’m told, is a contraction of the term “Law Blog.”

Day Five
Another long day of working on the new room. It’s going to be great! I’m glad there’ll be a bed in there so I can fall upon it and sleep for three days after this is all over. We got it primed (pe-yew!) and then started painting. I decided to paint stripes on the short…

Just Say No
I’m making a sharp turn today in my topic. I know I tend to jump from one thing to another. I’m working on a new blog design that will make it easier for you to peruse the topics that you are interested in and ignore the rest. But for now, it’s what’s in my head…
I HEART Valentine’s Day (pt 2)
The Valentine’s Day decor is finally all out and ready to love on each and every person that comes to visit our home for the next month. If you come over, be prepared to have a paper doily wrap its lovin’ arms around you and welcome you with a big, wet kiss. Oops. It seems…
