I've been thinking about writing a blog for a long time. But as with most things in my life it gets procrastinated and nearly forgotten about until I read someone's and think about it again.
I am wife to J, Mom of 6, but 2 are gone but not forgotten. The oldest, I like to call him Fred, is off to college far far away. How did I get old enough to have a grown up? The next one is 12 going on 60, she is an amazing one. We like to call her Boo. JJ (J Jr as he calls himself) is 10 and the baby is 5 1/2.
We're currently "in transition" as I kindly refer to it. When living in Southern California J was laid off from his job and we moved north to be near family again. However we don't know where we will land so we're living out of boxes and just grateful to be in an actual home in the meantime.
I homeschool the 3 youngest nutcases which I just love! It is such a joy to watch them learn but as with all things in our life right now this is mostly in flux as well since it's just so hard to find focus in the moving and chaos we're going through.
We had one cat and one dog, perfect huh? Then this summer every stray dog seemed to move on in. We finally got rid of most of them, but we have one left, Muffin. Of course as luck would have it she is now expecting puppies any day.
My hope is to chronicle our quest to find a job, a new home, our learning, a little bit of travels, and all the fun of a family that makes me just a little nutty but overall I sure do love them :)
