Not Another Homeschool Blog

Looks like we will be staying with in-laws until our new home is ready. In the meanwhile, we need to get all packed up and into storage.  We will be using PODs systems. Of course, I have several large projects at the same exact time, so it seems to me like I am getting nothing at all done. I actually have a middle school opening a show on the same day my moving containers show up (I am costuming 30 kids in Charlotte's Webb.)

I guess the answer is that after 15 years in one home, we're just ready for something different.
