Getting It Together

Well....once again I'm almost done. Oh, but I have great excuses this week. As enjoyable as it was, traveling and the Christmas Holiday took lots of time. Now that I'm home again....not really....there is always going to be something; I can excuse my life away or....Like this week we are hosting Games and Gabs with empty-nesters, doing Grins and Fins with our grands, and celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary on the 30th. Once I have this new study dovetailed with my other studies, writing, homemaking, and socializing, I'll post common-placing regularly. I finally understand how my scholars feel, when they begin studying with me. Also, I remember why I let this drop last year.
