Hi!

Well, I don't know if anyone reads this anymore, but I was thinking of my blog the other day and thought I'd give a quick update.

We are doing well.  Our children are now 12, 8, 5, and nearly 3!  We're returning to homeschooling; I will have a 6th grader and a Kindergartener, and our 8 year old will continue at her public school M-TR, then be with us for our small co-op on Fridays.  She also started attending our state school for the blind last year, so she will keep going there one week a month.

I've been helping my sister-in-law and her husband with their gaming company (Proving Ground Games), which has included working on a technical certificate in Business Administration so I can better assist (and hopefully secure a paying, at home job one day!)  It's been hard work but fun, we went to the Origins Game Fest in Ohio a few months ago and did well. 

My husband's employer sold the company to a larger company, which unfortunately is struggling and handed out pay cuts to everyone.  At least it wasn't a pink slip!  We tighten our belts up some more and keep moving forward.  We've been working on paying off debts and not acquiring more.

My husband and I built raised-bed garden boxes from pallets, that's worked pretty well and I've been canning a lot, which I love to do.

I can't think of much else to add!  I've toyed with the idea of blogging again, but as you know I'm the world's worst blogger and I don't have much to say these days, I guess.  God is good and I hope all of you are doing well!

This is SO weird, because I just happened to click on an old post of mine and was reading the comments, and saw yours and thought, "I wonder what she's been up to..." So I clicked over, and saw you had just posted today after more than a year! Kind of freaky ;) I even had to double check the date because I thought "she couldn't have just posted this!"

So I take that as a sign that you need to start blogging again :)

It is lovely to hear from you, and to know things are going well. Enjoy the home schooling and I'll pray that job wise things go the way you and your husband desire. Lucy x
