And then there were none .....

Just in case anyone has noticed, I have removed a few bloggers from my blog roll. I am beginning to feel like I am in an Agatha Christie novel, as one by one many of my favorite bloggers decide to slow down or stop blogging altogether! I think everything slows down a bit in the summer, and I realize there is a hard balance between benefiting from blogs and becoming overwhelmed by others and their seeming perfection. I understand everyone has to choose what is the right thing for them in the present moment. That said, I am sad to see some of them go. I am down to only a handful of blogs I read regularly, which is a good thing I suppose since it reduces the amount of time I spend on the computer. I did want to share with you a blog I just stumbled upon and love - Wildflowers and Marbles - get ready to be inspired to reorganize your school space and home after looking at some of her beautiful ideas. I am also excited about sharing some changes for our upcoming year as I am implementing several new ideas for organization and accountability. So, while summer is a down time, I am busily writing our plans and looking forward to posting as things begin to take shape (I am especially excited about math for the Queen, I am working on a set of plans around the characters from Beatrix Potter - her favorite!) So, keep checking in and hopefully I will be able to start posting plans and forms soon!

I'm trying to get back into blogging, but summer is too busy and too fun to sit in front of a computer screen any more than I have to (which is a lot)!

Thanks! I will be stopping by Wildflowers and Marbles next! What a cute name too!

I wanted to ask if you used the coupon code when you ordered from Shabby Apple! If not let me know. The code (they gave it to me late) is

Hope all is well! And I'm so happy you enjoyed the links!

I get the summer slowdown thing - unfortunately several of these are people who have quit blogging altogether (left for facebook or other reasons) :(

And Sylvia - I did not use the coupon code - did not see it last evening - see it now though :) I ordered several dresses - love that houndstooth one too!

I look forward to checking out "Wildflowers..." and am glad to see I made the blogroll cut, LOL. I'm hoping to post more often.
