Thank you Renee,

This is a great motivation for me to get moving and remember to care for myself and do the housekeeping. I tend to forget to do both when i am homeschooling my 9th grader. I have him doing a lot of the suggestion for this curriculum combining 8th though 10th.

Great job, Monica, on completing Day 2 and on your results so far. You're doing amazing. I agree ... it is so easy to fall behind on self-care and homekeeping (both) when homeschooling, but not impossible, as we are doing it! Better habits are possible. :)
