Happy St. Pats!

My children are balking at a day of school. It's like pulling teeth to get anyone to even remotely resemble an awake person today. So we've declared today a holiday. They keep saying 'but mom, its St. Patrick's Day... and we're sleepy!' Normally they don't get away with that at all, but frankly, I'm tired too. It was a busy weekend. It's super rainy/stormy out, so here we sit. Doing just about nothing. All the kids in the area have Spring Break this week anyway, I can be lenient one day, can't I? Plus, they don't know it yet, but they'll be reading, playing boardgames together whether they like it or not and we'll be doing some cleaning. In the meantime, I'm wrapping up things that need to hit the PO today/tomorrow and listing stuff on Etsy. Hoping to work on an art project soon too. Have to get my listing and cleaning done first before I'll reward myself that privilege of an artsy day. Okay, I did make this ATC, other than that, no more art for now...

What are you doing today? Any St. Patrick's Day celebrations? Hope your day is green!

I adore your little leprechaun. So cute. I watched the Jand Austen Book Club this weekend and loved it. I have friends like that in Texas and we get together for things, have known each other for over twenty years. Wish I lived closer, they all came to me when my husband died. You are so brave to home school, my daughter Cathy homeschooled through elementary years with her six. Thanks again for stopping by my blog. Carol
