Cleaning Frenzy at our House!!

At our house we have been cleaning out and moving everything....It is a mess right now.

We have been in our house for 17 1/2 Years. I am a pack rat. But we are trying to let go of "STUFF"!

I am finishing up homeschooling my oldest child this year and am trying to let go of so many books and software and stuff like that.

My mom died last year and she lived with us....I had been able to get rid of alot when moving her in but there was still alot here and still is in the attic....Oh the attic, I can 't go there.

We have cleaned out drawers, closets.....if it stands still and opens, it has gotten cleaned out.

Two truck loads to the dump and two truck loads to Goodwill.

We still have alot to do, but we are getting there.

I have not picks but you can visualize it I am sure.

It is just so hard to get rid of stuff......you don't use it for years, right and as soon as your let go of it.....guess what....you need it.

Oh well.

Wish me luck!

History Will Be Made This Week! The Presidential Inauguration

For all you homeschool families out there...Here are some fun facts to go along with the history making week we are having the privilidge to witness this week.

Also listed below are some official links to get more info on this event.

Fun Facts
George Washington's inauguration was held in New York City on April 30, 1789.

Inauguration Day was changed to January 20, from March 4, in 1933 by the passage of the Twentieth Amendment to the US Constitution.

Bill Clinton's, January 20, 1997, inauguration was the first inauguration to be broadcast live over Internet.

George Washington gave the shortest inaugural address in history. (135 words)

In 1865, Abraham Lincoln was the first president to include African-Americans in his inaugural parade.

In 1917, Woodrow Wilson was the first president to include women in his inaugural parade.

When January 20 is on a Sunday, the president-elect usually takes the oath of office privately and then repeats the ceremony in public on Monday.

Here are some really great links to help your children get into this event even more so:
