Random Five Friday

(may contain affiliate links)

1. I actually got in the pool today. The water was up to 79 degrees so I thought I would try. It actually wasn't that bad. However I didn't stay in as long as the kids, they are just crazy!

 2. Little J has finally found our blocks again since we moved. It's fun watching him build again. He likes doing it while I read.


 3. My kids last swim practice inside was yesterday. I guess it's a good job they don't mind swimming outside because that's where swim practice moves to on Tuesday. Burrrr to cold for me.

4. I will have sheet-rock up in my new office tomorrow.

5. I am an affiliate for Spark Naturals Essential Oils. I love them. Yesterday I made a blend for my husband because he had been working hard building my new room and hurt his shoulder. I blended Eucalyptus, Basil, and Black Pepper with some Fractionated Coconut Oil in a roller bottle. He woke up this morning feeling awesome. They are running weekly specials at the moment and the current one is an awesome deal. They call it their Essential Oil Blend. Peppermint, Lavender, Lemon and Melaleuca (5ml) of each for just $17.99 plus free shipping. If you use my affiliate code you get an extra 10% off. PLUS everything in your cart ships free. Check out the four pack here!

    That sounds so cold to me...I've been spoiled by the pool group we've been attending. It's in the physical therapy pool at the hospital, and they keep the water in the mid-90s. It feels SOOO good...but I know I'm not going to be able to convince my mother-in-law to keep her pool that warm...

The Ultimate Blog Party #UBP13

This is my first time participating in this blog party so I am kind of nervous... You know the walk into a room and not knowing any one kind. I am originally from England and have lived in the States for the last 14 years. My husband is also from England and so although out children were all born here. They still have some strange British quirks, eat British food, and pronounce things in different ways - yes my boys are cowboy boot wearing Americans through and through. The hats normally only come out for Halloween though. We starting homeschooling about two years ago when Jam was starting 5th grade and Boo 3rd. We love it. At the time we had chickens and bunnies - however we recently gave them to a friend who has a farm since we are trying to relocate closer to my husbands work. (He commutes an hour each way.) So my blog name makes me chuckle it should now be Homeschool but NO chickens and bunnies. I am excited to meet new friends. Leave me a comment to say Hi.
