04/29/2005 Archived Entry: "updated"

It's been too long, but Tabitha's Place is finally updated. I found it difficult at first to write, as I do write here about all that goes on almost every day. But after a bit it all came and I think it's a nice update. I print them off for the scrapbooks, so it's important to me to continue the updates, even if it's just a rehash of what was written here.

Speaking of writing, I've been trying to write an article for a disney group I belong to. I was really pleased with my start, then had to start to take care of my obligations (known as Princess Tabitha and Princess Daisy) and now I'm finding it hard to get back into it. I'd also like to do a series of pieces entitled "Why I...." for this site. I know many people who read here may wonder why we homeschool, or why we're vegetarian, or why we cloth diaper, to name a few. But finding the time to write the way I'd like is difficult. I actually want to proofread to avoid my gazillion typos that occur and I'd like them to be more well thought out explanations as opposed to my free flow writing that I do now. I can dream, I guess, we'll see if any of it comes to fruition. First I gotta finish that Disney article.

So, I went to an "informative" meeting on becoming a Girl Scout leader. Notice the quotes, it wasn't exactly what I envisioned. I won't go into the gory details, but in the first 5 or 10 minutes I was accused of giving attitude and intentionally keeping secrets. This from a woman whom I had just met. It was interesting, but not in a good way. I was so dumbfounded the entire time I was there as I have no clue what happened. But it was that good ol' proverbial straw and now, I'm not only questioning whether I want to be a leader, but whether my child will continue in Scouts. Let's just say the organization is not what it was when I was a member. *sigh* nothing is ever easy when it comes to getting my child into extra-curricular activities. Okay, I guess that isn't the right term, what with my child not having a curriculum, but you get what I'm saying. I'm giving myself a week to come to a decision.

I have more to write, but the hubby is on the way home so it's time for our daily cell phone chat :)
