Small Successes and Thankful Thursday!!

Thanks so much to Sherry @ Chocolate for your Brain for hosting this meme that used to be at Faith and Family Live. I'm so glad she did not let the meme die off, though I understand how hard it is to remember to blog it LOL!

1. I finally have an email for this blog! I'll add it to my sidebar - but it is violinmama5@gmail.com YAY! Private mail/comments as needed!

2. I finally added some lifestyle blog posts below, and on my homeschool blog. Life has been so busy lately, that both blogs have been neglected, and honestly I need to start posting more. I have some major thoughts going on and I need to share more than just pictures. But...aren't my pictures just cute...hehe! Love my kids!

3. I've been trying to keep the house in fair order since my deep clean. I'm grateful to now have more help in that area. I still have one more load of landry to wash, dry, and fold today....but things are getting done around here, summer is being enjoyed too, and we are learning when we can. I call that a success.

Bonus 4th - I'm finally getting more motivated to change my eating habits. I'm picking better choices and snacks again. I hope it leads to more energy so my workouts get amped up too. I need more energy.

Question - what dimensions do I need to make my picture above not be so BIG?? lol Any suggestions?

How is your week?
