Sorry for 2, not 1, but my youngest earned Fs because he wouldn’t do the work, and, regrettably, teaching consumes the rest of my life.
Family:
Four children have I
All scholars save the youngest
I’m kicking his ass
Job:
Teaching more daunting
Obama was my hero
Ere Arne Duncan was hired
Baby to toddler
Pay cuts, layoffs, sold our home
Never been this happy
Left lying husband
Son and I started college
Lots of part-time jobs
Homeschooling ending
Working again after too long
Buying a new home
Home is place to be
Think more of less, less of more
Blog fades to FaceBook
Major surgery
Job loss and job search, both hard
Herding sheep is fun

oops, I’ve had it pointed out that I messed up.
Try two:
Homeschooling ending
Getting a paycheck again
Buying a new home
(coming over via Meg’s blog…)
What’s that whooshing sound?
Wasn’t it just January?
Cr*p, another year.
You know I would play
But my life is boring, and
I don’t do haiku.
a new beginning
grateful for my therapist
goodbye, my marriage
Good: I’m losing weight!
Good: Daughter moves in with Friend!
Bad: Diabetes.
My baby started kindergarten
Where did those five years go
Days pass slowly
Cancer journey ends
Hospice cannot control pain
I am traumatized
When will the house sell?
We need to hit the road soon,
Much for us to see.
Heather - are you on RV.net?
Taken the ring off.
Boxes packed and then repacked.
Need tranquility.
No, I’ll have to check that one out. I’m on the Families on the road site and It’s a Mom’s life fulltiming site. Thanks!
down from West to East,
from two children up yo three
life’s become a beach.

Haiku, did you say? How could I not play?
2009
The year I barely blogged
encased in cyber-fog.
The Cowgirls kept me sane.
Never enough time
My year flew by too quickly
I let go of God
