I'm ever hopeful that the chaos that is created
by homeschooling two girls will end soon...
Hey, what's up?

Why, oh why, have I not been writing?
I could blame it on the weather. I hate sitting around in my own sweat. It makes me want to crawl out of my skin or claw out my eyes. But that is not the reason because, write or not, the weather is still here. It changes not one whit depending on how many words I type.
I could blame it on our lifestyle. Yes, I believe 4H is a lifestyle choice. Unlike being gay, 4h IS a choice, and one I have chosen for our family. Along with it comes rabbits and dogs and fairs and shows and auctions and on and on and on. Not to mention all the book work and preparation that goes along with all of this - training and practices and book work and record keeping, etc. And then there are the extras that aren't even projects such as rabbit judging, dance, and robotics.
Still, this 4H lifestyle has brought my daughters self-confidence and pride. A sense of accomplishment. Not to mention friends. Yes, I have had two, count them two, completely free weekends this year, but I wouldn't trade it for anything because the girls have grown so much in themselves.
Still, that is no excuse because I have found time to watch some tv. And writing is infinitely better than television.
Is it work? My messy house? My other hobbies? Not really.
It's a slump. An Ihavenothingtosay slump. Not exactly writer's block. It's simply that I'm too worn out mentally and physically to see things and think, "I must spin this in a humorous way and put it on my blog," the way I usually do. Maybe that is writer's block? I don't know. I only know that the things I have to post are pictures of the fair or rabbits or something rather than fun and entertaining stories. So, without further ado, here are some lovely pictures. Enjoy them because that's all I've got right now.
