A Day in the Life of the HappilyMarried Happy Homeschooler

I picked up my kids from a sleepover (one in trade since I’ll be watching her kids this week overnight) plus an additional.

Today, I was one of the organizers for the “All Church Birthday Party” after worship. We divided the year into quarters, decorated each quarter for a celebration using events that fall into their quarter, fed 100+ people, played trivia, pin the tail on the donkey, sang Happy Birthday.

Oh, and I reconvened my Contemporary Issues Adult Bible Study Class after our summer break. I introduced the curriculum (eclectic and budget friendly, just like I do at home) and got caught up on the life and prayer needs of my class. I used to teach in Chandler, AZ, using Faithlink. It’s Methodist, but us Presbyterians are pretty open minded.

Cleaned up after the after church event, went to Blockbuster in search of “Facing the Giants” to show tonight at my home for the kick off event of our new Jr. High Youth Fellowship. (Kick off …. get it if you’ve seen the movie?). Dropped one child home to be picked up later, met another one at my home to supervise until her mom gets home.

Located the missing headset since last night, found the one working remote so my oldest could “Watch the game”.

It’s 2:15. I have about 2 minutes before I’ll want to get the house in order so a bunch of kids can come over and mess it up.
