It has been so busy here with trying to pack all our stuff as we will be moving in a couple of weeks to our new house...exact date still unknown. And I am still trying to keep up with homeschooling the kiddos and keep this house somewhat clean, which is always more difficult in winter. Not sure why, maybe because we are all cooped up, with very little room for all the extras like bigger coats, hats, mittens, wet, snowy boots that we constantly trip over because there is only a two foot square area in which to remove all that junk when you come in and you do very carefully so as to not fall down the basement stairs! All of that just makes this little house seem even smaller.
Many have said, why don't you take a few days off of school to catch up on the packing and stuff, which we might have to do a day or two before the actual move. But I am reserving time off for when we actually move. So I can have time to set up my classroom again and library and get the kids acclimated to their new surroundings and maybe do some needed painting while the kids chill out and play games for a few days.
In the midst of all the chaos, some things have been put on the back burner some days. AKA: the laundry! It is a sad day when my nine year old comes up from the dungeon, I mean basement laundry room and says, "Wow! Mom! You've got to DO something about that LEANING TOWER of darks down there!" So, it's Saturday and mama is FINALLY getting caught up on stuff, especially LAUNDRY! Happy Saturday Bloggy Friends!

Hey, if your machine is working, I'll ship my laundry to you. It seems that no matter how many machines I have over here, I can't get one to work correctly. "Leaning Tower" is a very accurate description!
