I have a very bad habit, I want things just so, I want things perfect. Most things I have come to realize aren't going to perfect. I can't control everyone else and so I just have things as organized as possible and go on about things.
With this decision to homeschool, I have been in freakout mode for the past week. Bringing on a major headache.
I ordered the abeka dvd curriculium months ago it is great from what I have seen. But I also want to do extra stuff....well the getting the extra stuff organized, plus the new incentives, plus trying to do some budget cutting, get my home based business organzied to do more in less time, and on and on.
Well I have come to an important realization. It is not going to happen all at once in perfect order. So I have decided to go ahead and start with homeschool on Monday using the abeka and an abbreviated schedule. We will do this and get used to this until at least September then I will integrate the extra stuff in.
I am going to have to just chill out and for those that know me even a little bit that is one of the hardest things for me to do...I am such a type A personality. But just picking a starting point has helped and we will do the little things I want in place (menus, semi schedule, and incentives for reading) but the rest will wait....or at least I am saying that now...LOL.

You try to multitask too much and you don't know how to say No either lol. It will all fall into place though I'm sure. Oh and what business are you getting up and running
Not any new business just keeping my freelance paralegal going, I had to cut down the amount of lawyers I was working for but the ones I kept are high maintenance...but that also means high pay for less work so had to do it...but just daunting.
lol thought it might be that or thought I missed an email from ya lol.
Hope it's going well for you today Kel! You're in my thoughts and prayers!!
