Last night I skipped out on the Boy Scouts (feeling a bit of guilt!) and went to a WACHE meeting of the year. It was the deadline to register for membership. To be honest, I was feeling like there was little they could offer me. I was only homeschooling one child – who’s special learning style precludes any co-op classes and he doesn’t like the park days. Then with the conflict with Boy Scouts I can’t make the monthly meetings, that was it. I was a member in name only.
But the new leadership is doing some fun things! Last night was alot of fun! If they were all like that – I wish I could make more of them!
We had a guest speak share about Letterboxing. My friend Robin has been doing it for about 3 weeks with her family and it has sounded like SO much fun! We got lots of info last night and I can’t wait to try it with the boys! If you do it – please let me know!!
Here are some links she shared with us – hope you enjoy them!!

On an unrelated topic – anyone want to keep me accountable? Today I need to do the following (but all I want to do is climb back in bed!!) in addition to my normal chores, homeschool, work:
- Clean the tub (moving to tomorrow)
Put everything back under the kitchen sinkdone 9:40amClean out the bathroom cupboardsdone 3:00pm- Buy two cupboard locks for the bathroom (tomorrow)
- Email my Tiger cub scouts and plan this week’s meeting
Take J1 & J2 for haircuts(done!)
Now I REALLY want to go back to bed! And, if I remember correctly – I’ll have our home spotless for this home study but then we’ll just sit in one room and talk and get paperwork. However, I still MUST have this house perfect by then…wouldn’t you?!


Amy, we love to letterbox! Haven’t done it in a while, but it is a lot of fun. We even got our own stamp with our last name’s crest. I hope your family gets to enjoy the hobby. 🙂
