Summer Freedom



Some of you may have some extra time on your hands this summer.  You might be wondering what are some things you could do to fill the day.  I know a lot of mommies stop working when their little ones get out of school.  I have been home a little more then I expected this summer as well, but for different reasons.  At the end of last year, my youngest daughter started having some pretty bad migraine headaches.  I spent a lot of time taking her to doctors to get tests to make sure there wasn't something causing these headaches or if they were just regular migraines that no one can seem to explain.  She had them for about a month then they went away.  Recently they returned so, we started all over again trying to find something to take the pain away and also making sure there was nothing we missed that could cause them.  I said that all to explain that I didn't work hardly at all for a whole entire month due to this.  This was totally unplanned but you do what you have to do.  I must say I did get a lot of stuff cleaned in the house that needed done.  I try to always remember that all things work together for the good to those who believe.  Sometimes we don't always plan for things to work out the way they do but all things have a purpose I guess.  Some of the things I love to do when I have extra time on my hands would be to read, write lots of stuff, crochet, knit, play piano, exercise, garden, make stuff, cook food, sewing, and camp (which I will talk about later).  Some new things I would like to learn would be to write and edit books, edit and make videos on you tube, and learn a different language.  If you are wondering how I have so many hobbies, I must tell you it probably started from being home so much with my kids.  To keep me from going crazy because I was stuck in the house so much, I just began to learn new stuff.  Anyhow,  I thought I would make a post for some things to keep you busy this summer.  Well let me narrow it down.  Let's make this post about books.  I will make different posts about other stuff I want to try to do this summer and I want to blog about all these different books.  I must say that I haven't actually read all these books but I want to try to read most if them and tell you what I thought of them.  These were recommended to me. !links below to purchase because it helps support my blogging experience.  Thanks so much!

Camping

One of the things I would love to do more of is to go camping this summer.  I love being outside smelling the fresh air and feeling the warm...
