C'mon spring

Well life is going. Finally done with our fight with the city. Case has been dismissed and we get some of our money refunded which will promptly go to our outrageous electric bill. Now waiting on spring and warmer (dryer) weather to work on a project that needs to see some progression. I know we need the moisture so can't complain too much about the snow and such. Wanting to get a few plants (cherry bushes and such) but trying to take care of some other things first. Been busy (nothing new) so haven't been able to blog much. Will probably honestly be like that for awhile. My youngest is now doing ABC Mouse after the other kids get done with their schooling to prepare her for preschool and so far is doing great with it. :) She is learning her alphabet (sight recognition and such) rather quickly as well as being able to read her numbers. She also loves the puzzles they have on there. My son works somewhat slowly on his schooling due to his ADHD but we've set it up where so long as he does a certain amount of work a day he gets to play the gameboy and this seems to be working for him as well as he can get up and take breaks when he needs to of course (gets fidgety) My other daughter works so fast that she can go in and sit down and in an hour have a whole bunch of assignments turned in and doesn't have to spend much time in there. I think she may wind up getting done long before the end of school year. My son has a birthday coming up so need to do some birthday shopping and find something fun to do. Any way progress for us is slow but goals are coming into focus. It is just hard to wait. :) May still try to get some vegetable plants later this spring but will go for the potted variety so we can move them around. Wanting to start going for walks again weather cooperating just kind of hard to fit it in time wise but surely we can.
