Today is Mother's Day. When I was a kid, I'd make my mom breakfast and serve it up special on some kind of tray in her bed. I'd try a little harder on chores and try to make the day a more pleasant day for a tired mom of 7 kids. Today I didn't make my mom… Continue reading Week at the Boyack’s – Week 49

Week at the Boyack’s – Week 46, 47, and 48
So... I've been a bit behind. I blame knives. See... 2 weeks ago I had surgery to repair a hernia or two. I couldn't do much for myself. I couldn't really sit at a computer I couldn't get in bed by myself or out of bed. I had to have help doing nearly everything. Today, however, I got… Continue reading Week at the Boyack’s – Week 46, 47, and 48
Week at the Boyack’s – Week 45
I was bad at taking pictures this week. That doesn't mean that we weren't busy... We had plenty to do. On Monday I went to my first Pentacle director's meeting because I'm auditioning Secret Garden in a couple weeks. I knew most of what was discussed. I am excited and nervous about this show. Excited… Continue reading Week at the Boyack’s – Week 45
Week at the Boyack’s – Weeks 43 and 44
I'm so excited! SPRING is here! Look! I've got Popcorn popping on the ... cherry tree? OK. It's not quite the song, but still... look! BLOSSOMS! Now to get the garden in order. Sadly, my favorite garden gnome lives in New Mexico... sniff. The lawn is loving these warmer days. It could really use a… Continue reading Week at the Boyack’s – Weeks 43 and 44
Week at the Boyack’s Week 42
This week is Spring Break. We don’t really have anything planned. Monday I mostly played catch up… catch up on laundry… catch up on sleep… catch up on a clean house… catch up on paperwork. Monday evening I went to the pentacle Theater office and presented – or rather fielded questions – my proposals for… Continue reading Week at the Boyack’s Week 42
Week at the Boyack’s – Week 40 AND 41
The past two weeks have been yet, another whirlwind. Between doctor appointments, ortho appointments, home school, activities at the high school, and Legally Blonde, we have all been run ragged and rarely have time for some down time. Last week saw the end of an era. The fountain in the center of town was removed. Sad. My… Continue reading Week at the Boyack’s – Week 40 AND 41
Week at the Boyacks – Week 39
This week I thought I would try harder to get my act together and report things faster around here. It's been a very busy week. I worked at the HS Wednesday afternoon and Thursday morning and evening for an elementary school musical. It's a paying job. That's a good thing. We could use the money to pay… Continue reading Week at the Boyacks – Week 39
Week at the Boyacks – Week 37 AND 38
The past two weeks are a blur. In fact, I am rarely home. The biggest projects in my life take a lot of time and I really haven't had time to sit down and knock out a blog. My evenings are taken up with Legally Blonde the Musical. We have now moved into the theater… Continue reading Week at the Boyacks – Week 37 AND 38
Week at the Boyacks – Week 36
This was a busy week... yet fulfilling. However, I remembered that I forgot to mention a story from last week. John got in a car wreck. See... John stayed home sick one day. I wasn't feeling well either. Chad finished math and John volunteered to go get him. However, John blew right past Chad as he drove… Continue reading Week at the Boyacks – Week 36
Week at the Boyacks – Week 35
The week was full of sunshine and surprises This is a good thing because it was also a LONG week. I only had one day of Legally Blonde and spent the rest of the week with Once Upon a Mattress as my extra curricular activity. During the sunny days Lilli, Lagi, and Case made good use… Continue reading Week at the Boyacks – Week 35
