Tricia is now in 7th grade and the loneliness of homeschooling has struck again. She wants to find friends and school seems like the most logical place to do it. I am now googling and searching for art classes and clubs and teen activities. I think boredom is part of it too. Kayleigh now has plenty to fill her time from the time I had to do this with her, but Tricia needs me to keep looking for her.
Sometimes I think I will run myself ragged searching for things for these girls. I am driving them around constantly. I am kind of excited for Kayleigh to be able to drive because it might take some of the load off me. Kayleigh is driving more and that is good. It scares me to death that she will be driving around in the car by herself. There is so much that can happen. It is a bit anxiety producing, but we are surviving it.
Brave Writer work is going well, but it is a lot. I have been feeling stressed about all of the party guides that I need to write. We are redoing all of the Quiver guides so I have that on my plate too. There is also our trip out west to plan so I have a lot on me, but I want to get a lot of it done before we head out west so that it isn't on my mind.
I feel better about planning my kids' school year so I am excited to do that. We just have to finish this one strong if possible. David is so eager to graduate elementary school. I can't believe that I will only have one elementary school child left to homeschool. It feels CRAZY to me. It is crazy.
My mom arrives today so she will be here for a few days to help me get a few things done. <3
