Well no posts in 2009 what does that say about my little loft? Actually I haven't been very consistent at updating my other blog either. I'm wondering if my "writing" days are coming to an end? I hope not - it's been a great way to record our homeschooling journey and since Noah is just starting I really hope that I continue - especially with the "antics" that he comes up with. Did I tell you about the "Nut up my nose" the other night? Well it turns out Noah has been down with a cold. He hadn't been eating much but Paul came home with a container of assorted nuts and unbeknownst to us he took them to bed with him. We thought he was sleeping when all of a sudden he started crying....like he was really hurt. He was trying to tell me but I couldn't understand a word he was saying....finally Josh figured out he was saying "There is a nut up my nose"!! A nut? I thought it was like a nut (and bolt) since we have "renovation" stuff strewn across the upstairs rooms. But then we realized it was a peanut of sorts. Well Dad managed to get it out with the tweezers thankfully - it was pretty far up there. I think it scared Noah more than hurt him.....what a kid. My favorite part was when I was telling my Mom she said "Josh never would of done anything like that." So true....Josh wouldn't think of it, or if he did he would for sure of asked permission first. Not Noah he just goes ahead and does it and begs forgiveness later. Two different kids, too funny!

Well let's see what other "excitement" have I had?

I'm really enjoying spinning and knitting again. January was a sickness month for me ... on and on it went and I wasn't sleeping through the night which is NOT good for me. Finally I got over everything and have been sleeping again so I feel so much better!

Homeschooling is going really well and I'm already thinking about next year....crazy I know. This high school thing has me stumped though as I feel I know what direction I should be going but "high school" stuff keeps getting presented to me and I'm wondering what God is up to with that. I feel like he wants me to do something but I'm really not sure yet what it is .... that's ok for now I'll wait and I know whatever IT is he'll let me know.

Speaking of God - both Paul and I are getting the message that moving may be in our future. We are not at all sure what that will look like but we are both definately getting the message that we won't be here for the long term anyways. I'm kind of sad about that I actually really love this location....I feel "central" to everything, but maybe that is a bad thing? We'll see what the future holds.

Oh there is a knitting shop for sale but of course that is not really what I want to do ...but it is just so tempting when I know I could do it.

I am starting to get anxious for spring....the winter has been so "mild" I just know when things start melting ....sigh.....

I need some furniture.... not new per say.... I'm hoping something comes my way.

Well coffee is ready so I think I'll have another cup and knit for a bit and then have my shower, run to the store for salad stuff for church supper tonight. Looking forward to our house church today, we have another couple joining us.

Well until next time, thanks for sitting and chatting with me. It does feel good to be back in my loft, if only for a few minutes.
