Project updates

Both Princess and Little Man are fully done!

This means they only have to work on music each day and chores.  giving them an extra hour and half to goof off in the mornings.

Dude on the other hand, he is goofing off during the quiet time, and reading a book instead of doing math now.

So, guess he wont be getting done.  He does have until the 12th, but he also has quite a lot to do.

Ah well.

Upon looking at the plan, I think it was too long, in hindsight that is pretty obvious, but at the time, I just wanted to know where we were going and what we were doing for a long time.

Next time I will go with just two weeks.  Hopefully Dude can handle that, I know the other two can.

I also am going to adjust for the next month and half with far less 'work' and more gift making.  This year I hope to get as many people on our lists homemade gifts as possible.  Some will be ornaments, some soap, some food, and a few other random ideas, hopefully everyone will like them.  It should be a bit cheaper, something we need right now, and also will be good for the kids to think of what sort of things folk like and see if they can make it.

Princess and Dude are just now old enough to make useful gifts, plus I have a few ideas for Little Man that they can help him with.  Essential that most be done without me, as I kinda have my hands full with Little One (as I have had my hands full every year with some kid)

This should still leave them the afternoons free (other than scouts and whatnot).
