Holidays.

We are having a great holiday. We have caught up with family and had lots of time together. We have about a week and a half left and I have lots of plans for them. 

I have a few sewing projects. 

- finish our curtains for our bedroom. 
- sew a couple of pairs of leggings for me. 
- Do a couple more overalls for Joseph.

I am going to get our  term 3 home school program all written up. Last holidays I didn't really prepare for the term and it made home school much more difficult. It wasn't a good term to be so disorganised with all the extra therapies we had happening. 

Next week, I am going to be getting a heap of main meals and snacks cooked and in the freezer. 

I hope everyone else that is on  holidays is having fun.

I have curtains to sew, this holidays, too, Therese. They've been sitting around for a while so I really should get them finished.

And, the planning I'm not sure about. I'm trying to decide whether to plan 2 weeks ahead instead of the whole term. The last weeks of term 2 changed quite a bit from the plan. Do you plan in much detail or do you keep it flexible?

Hope you enjoy the rest of the holidays.
God bless:-)

Vicky,

I do a pretty detailed plan. I write out daily schedule, spelling lists, print out worksheets and put them all in a folder. Last term, I decided to just do it each weekend for the following week but just didn't get around to it. I think we were so busy during the week, I really needed more rest on the weekends.

Thanks for your comment Vicky. I hope your get your curtains done. I bet they haven't been sitting around as long as mine have.

Hope you get on top of all that and still have time for a "holiday" in the holidays.

I always want to cook ahead, but somehow just getting enough food cooked for a day or two is more than enough. Then there's the two day meals I make that get eaten in a day!
