Wow, so apparently just having a blog doesn't mean that posts will magically appear! You ACTUALLY do have to write them! Hmmmm...and there we have a problem.
Perhaps it's just that I am directionless...
Perhaps all my thoughts are already spoken through others.....
Perhaps I am afraid that others will not see value in my thoughts....
Or quite possibly
Perhaps I am far too busy playing Solitaire Blitz (and the like) on Facebook! Eek.
Anyways...writing now mean that I am posting before I have hit two years without a post...just!
So whats been happening in the last two years?
We are still homeschooling...albeit badly...but we are hanging in there. The children have been in tears a few times as they have been threatened with Public School. (Not our oldest...she's itching to go back.)
We have a new Prime Minister who we were hoping would bring some positive changes but is perhaps getting people's backs up more than anything.
Christchurch and Japan were hit with massive natural disasters.
The London Olympics have been and gone. Teaching us that we can spend millions of dollars on world sporting and yet leave children starving all over the world. (I shouldn't be cynical about it. I actually do really love seeing people striving for excellence and achieving amazing results. I just hate the extreme amounts of money that is spent on the "for show" parts of this wonderful world event.
We are hearing lot's about this new "Mormon" guy who is going inflict his "cult" onto everyone if he gets voted in as Americas next President.
(I really should watch the news more often as I'm struggling terribly to come up with any world events!)
And lastly...our family are all a little bit older, a little bit wiser and still very much healthy and well and very blessed to be alive and living in such a beautiful free country.
