Tell Me Tuesdays
To go along with the new AussieHomeschool blog meme (Tell Me Tuesdays) I thought I should at least try and post! So here goes. Tell of your own blogging habits- frequent, infrequent, irregular, frequently irregular, etc I blog when I can. When I want to. I never feel...
The AussieHomeschool Blog
Another new blog? Who is writing at the blog? This blog will not be written by one person. Rather is will be a combined effort of all Australian home-learning bloggers. Why another blog? Through this blog, we hope to encourage all homeschoolers parents, or those with...
Spring Holydays
Three of the four spring holidays are celebrated within an eight-day period (Abib 14-21). The three spring festivals overlap or run into each other. The fourth and final spring feast is the Feast of Weeks (Shavuot or Pentecost). The Feast of Weeks is held seven weeks or fifty days following the morrow after the Sabbath of Passover.
The Shack
If you want to read a treatise on theology or religion then do not read this book. If you want to read a fictional account of one believer's journey from religion to an intimate relationship with God, then maybe you'll enjoy The Shack. Maybe. I wanted to know what all...
Weight loss with Green Smoothies
Just a quick post... John (DH) went back to the doctor yesterday. The doctor was really pleased and a little surprised with him. Why? John has lost 3 kg in weight and 4 cm from his waist! The doctor wanted to know how or what he had done to achieve this positive...
Waiting
I'm probably boring everyone to tears with my moving-not-moving saga but I did say I would post In Real Time. Today, John put in the paper for the 'powers-that-be' to look over. From this, they decide where we will be. Every aspect of our life (from location, housing,...
Meet…
... my friend, Beyond Bluestockings. Mrs. BB, as she is sometimes affectionately known, has been blogging for about one and a half years. I know Mrs. BB in real life. She may be petite, dainty and delicate in size but she has a huge heart, joyous nature, quick wit, a...
Choose…
Okay, my attitude is changing. Thanks for praying for us. I can't explain exactly how it is happening...but I can tell you where my mindset is now. If we fight to stay here, we'll still only be here for another 12 months...then we're off to another posting. Because of...
Town A or town B?
We were fairly settled in brisbane...but some family members were quite ill back home (in SA) so the army wanted to be supportive and sent us back home for a CoPas posting which is 12 months. That is up soon, at the end of March. However, John hasn't seen any...
Moving posts…
Ever written a post and wished you could delete it? Well, that's kinda how I felt about my last post. Not because I threw a hissy fit...I have done that previously with life and God, rather because it wasn't encouraging or informative. I did think twice about posting...
Homeschool Link Up

Throwing a tantrum
Okay I'm scared. I'll admit that I'm worried. I'm confused. And I'm stubborn. We've only been here for 12 months. I'm not ready to leave. The children aren't ready to leave. We have lives here- commitments, relationships. I like being back home. Yeah I know I didn't...
How Do We Parent?
When I see the way that God parents me I am more able to parent my children in love, in grace…with discipline as it should be – loving discipline. Discipline that restores, not tears down or breaks hearts. Every action the Father does toward me is one of restoration, although I don’t always see that at the time. But it is. That is His nature and I trust Him.
Chow Mein
After reading Beyond Bluestockings Cabbage Salad, which made me drool, I commented on our crude form of Chow Mein. Beyond Bluestockings asked me to share the recipe. Last night I taught Master 13 how to prepare this meal and sometime within the next two weeks I'll get...
Domestic Science Routine 2009
Confession time! I am not a highly organised person. I like the cosy warmth of clutter. I love my ornaments and nick-knacks as they all have a story behind them…they have sentimental value. I can’t take them with me when I go to be with the Lord, and I can live without them, but they are like good friends- I like to have them around.
