Do you smell smoke?

Well it's a Christmas miracle. After telling you I wouldn't finish the puzzle unless there was a Christmas miracle, I finished it. I put the guilt on the fam about me doing a family project all alone, but it only lasted about 30 minutes before they abandoned me. Nevertheless, it got done. I promise you, I do not take this lightly. Everything is spiritual. God gave me the drive to do it and I did it. No kidding.

So I'm wavering back and forth on being mad and being a Godly wife. Can someone help me? My husband is outside "working in the yard", thus my house is full of smoke. FULL. Did I mention that I cleaned and washed all day today so everything was smelling all nice and clean and fresh? Now? Full of smoke!! SMOKE!!

Please pray for me.

I need to get rid of some stuff and I need some ideas. I used to teach preschool and kindergarten and I have a ton of teaching resources. I mean a TON. And I really just can't hold on to it all. Brandon said today, even if I do go back to teaching when Schyler graduates, kids probably won't even be using paper products anymore so my stuff will be obsolete. He's probably right. Oh my word. Did I just say that??

Anyhoo...What can I do with all of this good stuff? Can I get it to a needy school? Needy homeschooler? Any ideas?

Well, I have thought and thought about a nice little Christmas post, but I don't think it's going to happen. Everything I think of just seems to take away from Jesus. I've been thinking a lot about what Mary and Joseph went through. It means a lot to me but I can't quite get it out correctly. I know, I know, you're used to that from me. But this is too great a thing to mess up.

Did you guys see the video on the social network Christmas? It sounds bad, but it was good. Aunt Mama Hen has it on her blog.

Hello????? I will be homeschooling a kindergartener next year.

Seriously, let me take a look before you give anything away.
