Around here, I have been:
loving this warm weather! We’ve had unseasonably warm days this week, with a few days even into the 80’s. We’ve been playing at the park with friends, eating outside and just enjoying the sunshine. Makes me so excited for spring!
watching new birds check out our hanging basket. Last year’s fern is long dead, but I haven’t had the heart to remove the nest inside. And now it looks like there will be new residents! I’ll have to do a little trim of the worst pieces when the birds are away.
working out, but it was a struggle. I just wasn’t feeling it this week! I’ve been having dull headaches off and on and I’m pretty sure it’s because I’m not drinking enough water. Definitely need to work on that next week.
switching winter clothes out for spring ones. The kids love this activity, but I tend to dread it. So many clothes in so many sizes…I get so overwhelmed and I just want to donate it all! So glad to have that project done.
reading Bakhita: From Slave to Saint, The Mapmaker’s Children and Better than Before for book club.
getting a lot of work in for Big White Farmhouse. Ordering new products (so fun and nerve-wracking!), packaging orders, and tweaking a new social media strategy. We also were offered a HUGE opportunity (more on that soon) and I am so excited to share BWF with a new audience.
homeschool notes:
+ M is learning about the African savanna in his science co-op class and his teacher recommended this webcam. It is awesome! We were able to see an elephant and what we think are wild boar, which was so exciting. It’s been fun to check in at different times of the day to see who’s near the watering hole.
+ For that same co-op class, M is doing his very first presentation. This week he worked on his visual aid and he’ll start his talking points on notecards next.
