I'm back!!

Unfortunately my method of blogging is to not blog for a long time, then do a blog posting overload. It has been a very long time since my last post, and so much has gone on in that time:

A trip to Alberta

A trip to Chilliwack

John home LOTS

and now John has been gone since January 2.

Fortunately we were able to go see him for 3 nights, as he staying in a hotel, has the room to himself, that has 2 queen beds. I am currently keeping very busy. This is kinda what my schedule looks like

Monday: Clean church ( I am currently the janitor for the Alliance Church), homeschool, race Emmy to swimming lessons on time to be able to drop Kenna off at gymnastics, drive back to Emmy, watch her finish swimming lessons, and crack the whip at her to hurry up since we have to be back at Kenna in 15 minutes as she is finished gymnastics.
Tuesday: HOME ALL DAY, until 4:30 when Kenna has rock climbing, go home until 5:45 to bring Emmy to girl guides, straight to Kenna to pick her up, home for 45 minutes before heading out to pick Emmy up
Wednesday: homeschool, leave at 3:00 to go babysit (babysitting is 2 weeks on/2 weeks off) until 5:30, go home for half hour before bringing Emmy to swimming lessons.
Thursday: baby sit from 9-3 (also 2 weeks on/ 2 weeks off), try to fit schooling in there, and home for the rest of the evening.
Friday: homeschool, clean church, and then home
Saturday: babysit from 9-1
Sunday: thankful for this day of rest

As long as John is working, I don't mind being this busy, and away from home.  Especially in winter, when there is not much else to do outside.  Today was a crazy warm day, 6 degrees, which has cleared up the roads alot.  With John being gone, I was responsible for clearing off our flat roof.  There was about 2 feet on it, the top half was light and fluffy on the first day that I started.  The bottom half was ice/hard snow.  The second day I worked on it, it had started raining, and that made for an all around heavy snow.  I wouldnt be surprised if I burned 3000 calories ;) 4 hrs of continuous shoveling??? Maybe????

The girls had a blast.  A pile of snow + rain = an Olaf making day ( Olaf is the snowman in the movie Frozen).

This is a quick update for now.. I am heading off to bring Emmy to girl guides, and then pick up Kenna.  I will try post some pics soon. (The computer that has all our pics on is also the computer the girls use for schooling, so I don't have access very often to it!)
