In some ways I feel like this week has been anything but simple. I have been crazy busy every day. Some days I get to the end of the day and feel like I've hardly even seen my younger boys that day. That being said, it has been a productive week. One big check off …

Simple Living 7
I feel like my summer has been just as busy as the school year. Partly that's because I'm now selling Usborne books and have been working hard to learn all the ins and outs. Since I am so busy I've been trying to stay on task with lots of lists. There is something so incredibly …

It's been a long time since I told you all what I'm doing with my life. I've been doing a lot of knitting and sewing with a little bit of baking and gardening thrown in. I finished the quilt that I had shown the beginning of in my last Friday post. I'm in the middle …

March seemed to crawl by, but April has been flying. I can't believe we're already a third of the way through April. We still have lots of snow here, but it is slowly - oh so slowly - disappearing. We've slowly been getting used to doing church via livestream or as we did Wednesday night …

I used to post regularly on Fridays with updates on what we had been doing as a family, things I had pinned, recipes or crafts I had tried, etc. I still want to do that, but in order to hold myself accountable to simple living I want to focus more on what I'm doing to …
Friday File 85
We've just come through our Canadian Thanksgiving. We had a wonderful visit from friends in the States. The entire weekend was special and comforting to all of us as we faced our first Thanksgiving without my husband. I've finally been able to get some pictures so you can see a couple of the projects I've …

Here I am actually popping on to get you caught up with our family. I haven't written a Friday post since February, and we've had a lot of things happen - some good, some not so good. In May on Victoria Day my seven-year-old son fell of his bike, and we ended up at the …
Friday File 79
This has been a frustrating week. Back in December I sprained both of my wrists in separate incidents. Since then they have never really healed. To be honest, I don't think I'm resting them enough. It's Just. So. Hard. This week I realized that like it or not I had to cut back on playing …
Friday File 78
This has been a busy but good week. The second week back to school after the winter break so we're getting into our routine. I had a very busy week crafting wise. The first picture shows my temperature blanket as of January 17th. The two multi-coloured stripes stand for the two birthdays we've had so …
Friday File 76
This has been a busy winter break but a good one. I wrote out a list of things to do, and I think I accomplished about 80% of it so I'm happy. It's been nice to stay up late and sleep in. To not have the pressure of school every day. I'm not sure if …
