This past week has been spent getting back into routine and getting caught up on housecleaning. I completely cleaned my bedroom, my bathroom and reorganized my closet. I did lots of laundry, about 10 loads; towels, sheets, bedspreads etc.  I guess I kind of had the spring cleaning bug. I do feel like someone in my house has been sick pretty much every day since the  beginning of November and I felt like I needed to reclean and sanitize things like bedspreads and pillows and bedrooms to maybe knock all of the sickness out. I know it felt good to have it clean. I cleaned so much until my whole body was sore.

Then we had company over from out of town. One of my hubby's old high school friends. He is a Pastor in New England and they came to visit with his wife and 6 kids. Such a beautiful family and we had a great time. It really made my DH and I realize how much we have become home-bodies. It was so nice to hang out with Godly people and the kids had a great time too.

Then there was the homeschooling. The rest of my week was spent working with the girls. I am a little behind in the grading and the end of the grading period is this week. I have to get caught up and still keep up with the lesson plans at the same time. I decided after Christmas break that I was adding the memorization of Bible verses to the girls lesson plans. They will have one verse a week to memorize and then be graded on. I think they will appreciate it later in life because the verses really do stick with you.

So that's where I was this week.  Maybe later I will tell you what I have planned for this week.
