Robin's Nest

  Each week has had its own challenges. On to what is happening. This morning, President's Day, the dog got a bath. The shower got cleaned. The cats got to go outside for a bit. This is last week but same cats I made freezer burritos today, and freezer taquitos. Pretty sure they will be met with skepticism. It is what it is and I had the ingredients   so all they can do is refuse to eat them.  the seasoned ground beef homemade refried beans topped with a little shredded cheese rolled up and ready for the freezer mini tacos ready to freeze as well Turkey is struggling today she wouldn't go into the barn so...

Poor car had to sit in the driveway through the snow and rain because I had the floor of the garage totally covered with stuff and things. Things are put away for now.

Or unschooling as others have called it. As long as they have the basics and the desire to learn along the way. I quite often miss my alone time though. That would happen no matter what even if they were in school. Because my time is not my own. If I am here, I am expected to entertain. As long as the girls are here then I am expected to entertain them. As I sit here and type, I have an adult complaining that their toes are freezing. we have terra cotta tile floors over cement. This one has no socks on, no slippers and no desire to remedy that. I am not too concerned. But it is annoying to listen to when there is a solution that can be had easily enough.
