In the past, we had those projects, grocery shopping, and house cleaning that didn't get finished. (It is hard to stay on top of the house while homeschooling...well, it is for me anyway.) And we had all of that on Saturday! Our Sundays are busy with church activities and once we begin homeschooling, I will be preparing for the new week too. It has been really stressful for us. So I am trying to do as much as I can during the week so Saturdays are for a few projects. I'm trying to open up at least Sunday for church and family time (and nothing else, if possible). This is still a work in progress for us.<br /><br />Lecia ~ I am trying to plan for this week some cooking ahead sessions during the week. I'm hoping to help cook ahead for the school year and for weekends. I'm just trying to cook a little extra and freeze the extra. I hope to prepare some lunches that I can freeze too that will help make our school day a bit easier. I hope y'all had a great weekend while celebrating!Adrianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03217526453009599484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2873919629381342545.post-67329978533377560292010-08-08T10:32:37.025-05:002010-08-08T10:32:37.025-05:00I have had the same thoughts, (so far it has not g...I have had the same thoughts, (so far it has not gotten past a thought!haha) that if I get as many of the chores done as possible and even cook food for the weekend on Friday we could have so much more time together as a family.<br /><br />This weekend we are having a huge cookout. My oldest daughter is coming in for a few days. We decided to celebrate all the August birthdays while she is in.<br /><br />Hope you are having a fun weekend!!Leciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06797629211503809046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2873919629381342545.post-16110282288036310622010-08-07T17:12:23.519-05:002010-08-07T17:12:23.519-05:00I love that post.. and it confirmed my thoughts ea...I love that post.. and it confirmed my thoughts earlier today. I was laying on the beach (by myself) my youngest son, the last living at home with us, was at home playing video games, and my husband was home cutting the grass and doing fixit up things.. I know he is at work all week and that is the only time he can get those things done, but then we dont get to spend much time together as a family.. everyone is doing their own thing.. <br />so i think i am going to follow your lead, and start planning thing for us to do on Sundays after church... Thanks for the light bulb moment..Family is huge to us..but sometimes we just get to "okay" with the way things are..Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13229552760095462365noreply@blogger.com
