Hey, it's been a while. The youngest going off on his first school camp has motivated me today!
I'm so proud of him. I expected to feel a little bit sad but I actually don't. I know this will be great for his own maturity and many fun activities are planned as well as plenty of food - what else could an 11 y.o. want? Prayed for his safety, he's now as always in Gods hands, nothing more I can do. When I left him this morning he was busy helping a friend - awesome.
On a different note, I'm excited to receive my new book in the mail "Canning and Preserving your own Harvest". It is a part of a series in "An Encyclopedia of Country Living Guide". I will have to work out what some of the American measurements mean and some of the terms they use. Now if all the pesky other things on the to do list could just move so I could get into it that would be great. Need a holiday I think.
ONE TOUCH METHOD
As easy as it sounds, I struggle with this one but am continuing to work on it. Basically it involves putting things in their correct place as soon as you put them down. When you pick up a piece of paper it either gets actioned, goes into the bin or in a designated place for future reference. If something is dirty, clean it, if it is messy pick it up. Clean as you go - as a busy person (i'm sure many can relate) we don't have a full day to set aside for the "housework" so this is the way to go. Speaking of which - I have a few things to clean and pick up and iron, and study to do and..........unique opportunity to go out with my husband at lunchtime on a Wednesday, awesome!!!
See ya
