What's happening?

In other words, why am I not writing anything these days? Well, I've been occupied:

  • clearing my email inbox (from close to 900 messages; I'm almost there!)
  • keeping my paper collection basket cleared
  • making a Shutterfly photo book with pictures from the Mantay family reunion
  • practicing piano with Sophia and Madeline
  • registering the older girls for ringette and taekwondo
  • outfitting Sophia for ringette (with Neil's help)
  • meeting the girls' teachers
  • reviewing words with Sophia for French and English spelling tests (she's a great speller!)
  • working a wee bit here and there on some scrapbooking classes I'm taking
  • planning something I'm quite excited about (but not quite ready to share*)
*And yet I mention it here, publicly, because I don't want to back out on myself. ;-)

  • To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a little better; whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is the meaning of success. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
