Confessions

I've been holding back from posting because there's just so much that I want to accomplish in this week. It's the week of Lent and I am giving up the The Well-Trained Mind boards because frankly, I've become addicted. I've moved further away from where I should be because I've spent too much time on the computer. This past week has been one of confession to the Lord and to a new friend who has been going through the same. I've confessed my sins to my dh as well, why is it so hard to trust others in our lives with our failures?

Anyways, I've set myself up for failure in the past by making detailed plans and posting them here. I work the plan for a couple of days and then it all falls apart. This time I'm keeping mum about my plans- I'm breaking free from the WTM Boards for Lent and I'm going to work on my relationship with God, dh and my children by whatever means God intends. I'll still blog (what a word!) and visit the Classical Education Forum but you will NOT find me on the WTM Boards. Our homeschool just needs a little attention, we're happy with our curriculum and next year's curriculum is here and ready to be planned out. The planning takes time and I can't plan when I'm talking about curriculum and homeschooling choices with other homeschoolers constantly like on the WTM Boards. I also need to reconnect with the Lord, I've moved away bit by bit and now I don't like the distance.

Please pray for me, especially this week and next if you don't mind. I'm trying to formulate better habits during Lent that will honor God in both myself and my children. Thank you.
