Neglect, it's a sad thing. :(

Yes dear blog, I have neglected you. You have become like many of my wordless books that have only one or two entries. I'm sorry I have left you alone for so long. My loyalties have fallen elsewhere and I am sorry about that. I will attempt to spend less time with Facebook. (I know that name makes you very jealous, I'm sorry.) I will try to talk to you more. There are so many good things going on in my life and I have not told you about any of those things.  I'll start now.

-We are finishing up year two of Home Schooling, and we are doing so well. I can't imagine my kids being anywhere but with me every day. Yes sometimes it is difficult and i just want some quiet time to myself but the benefits far outweigh the disadvantages.

-We will be living in our camper for the summer. Yes, that's an interesting development. No, we are not having money problems. Brad's job is going far enough away for a few months that he would not be able to come home on weekends. For that reason we will be going with him. If I have a choice of being with my Husband or being away from him, I choose to be with him. We have also decided that we will be continuing school through the summer. Why waste good quiet time if we don't have to?

-My health is much better now than it has been in years. I have been working on loosing weight and so far I have lost 35 pounds.  I have another 30 to go but I am already noticing how much better I feel. My arthritis is not acting up as much as it has in years past. I have had arthritis since I was 26 and it think this has been the easiest year in terms of not having severe flare ups in my knees and hips. I still get sore but I don't get so sore that I can't move comfortably, and that is a great blessing.

Well that's just a few of the things that are going on in my life. I may not have a super exciting life but I am very blessed and thankful that God has given me so much. I will try my best not to neglect you anymore, Blog. I know that you get lonely sitting here on the internet watching other Blogs getting so much more attention. Please forgive me. :)

Love,
A
