Some Integrated Life that was Unplanned

I took Bryan with me to meet with the parish volunteer at a local parish who is launching the Lighthouse program this weekend.

He helped carry in the stand (he helped me put it together last week), carried boxes, listened to us talk about the plan for the parish and walk through the church to see where I should sit when I attend the Masses and make short annoucmements this weekend. We had some nice short discussions about this parish, our parish, the CDs, etc.

Dh is working at home full time- has been since July. I found something interesting, that my non-talky husband now comes out of his cave now and then ready to share some tidbit of his day with me. I think the guys at the water cooler used to get this when he was in the office.. but now I do! I think this is much like what happens if our kids are at school all day.. by 4pm they are talked out. But now we all get the best of each other. Well, when we aren't tripping over each other... this togetherness takes time to get used to, too.

Dh had Bryan copy reciepts to send in his expense statements. Stephen then weighed and attached postage. Many discussions ensue about clients, travels, etc.

Just some tidbits from here... lots happening, but little planned...

Today is LOTR and tennis. Our fun but busy day. Crisp cold and beautiful outside!

We are all on a journey, and this blog's reason for existence is to be a place to put mine. From humble suburbian begnnings just north of Dallas to a Catholic unschooler with a passion for faith, lifelong learning, my family and dogs, here I stand before you. Welcome to my world!
Authenticity. That would have to be my theme at present. To enjoy my family, be true to ourselves and our faith and be authentic and enthusiastic about life!

I love Dog Day Afternoons...
"What children need is not new and better curricula but access to more and more of the real world; plenty of time and space to think over their experiences, and to use fantasy and play to make meaning out of them; and advice, road maps, guidebooks, to make it easier for them to get where they want to go (not where we think they ought to go), and to find out what they want to find out."
