I just got done helping to complete a Spanish project for one and reading the starting of a book for another. (I’ll let you know what kind of grade I get!)
(I have to share the link to the Spanish project because- well, it’s not like ANY project I EVER did. (My son has a small part in it – my nephew made the video and is the main newscaster.)

The book writer is also my reader and based on what she has written so far, she’ll beat me to my dream goal of writing a book. Her story is about a creature who is the lone survivor of an ancient Indian tribe that is responsible for making the crop circles…… (I’ll let you know where to buy your copy)
On top of all that, a potential new house is in my future. This story will definitely have to be continued but let me just give you the highlights:
We aren’t really looking (I’m ALWAYS ready to move because I love houses and change, but I’ve been pretty satisfied where we are for the first time EVER.)
The house needs work, but might be an investment/opportunity for us to finally own.
I have never been inside it
From the outside, it doesn’t excite me
It doesn’t come close to my dream home (Craftsman Bungalow)
It has been abandoned
The power and water have been shut off
The steep steps to the front door were covered in a thick sheet of ice, making the climb one of the more dangerous things I have done in awhile.
With Flashlights in hand, in the POURING rain, we discovered the door that had been left open earlier was now tightly locked and we had to repel back down the steps with no opportunity to see the inside.
This will be continued I am sure with plenty of more details, but I am trying to put too much energy/thought into it because I am really not sure this is my idea of an adventure….
I’ll keep you posted…….
