Life
Mindy
Life right now is a bit redundant right now. Just working (a lot of hours), being a mom, housework and crafting. Then I sleep and repeat the next day! Oldest son is in summer school so my days start at 6 am. Preparing for the kids to go back to school this fall. Youngest son will be starting orchestra. 
Charity
Life, is crazy as always for me, I have family visiting upcoming.  The Fall Semester starts in mid-August so I have to prepare for that.  I also have a Content test to stop procrastinating about and take.
