Another project I do during the clothes changeover is a photo session of my youngest in the clothes we're putting away. Many of the clothes have been passed down from the oldest to the youngest and I want to remember those outfits.
The Week's Project 6-1 to 6-6 - Fall/Winter to Spring/Summer Clothes Changeover

Why No Cleaned Kitchen Before Bed on 6-5, 6-6, & 6-7?
On Saturday, I weeded the garden up until dinner. I had a bad headache afterwards so I lied down to help the headache. The girls tried to clean up as best they could, but I don't think the floor was swept.
On Sunday, we were invited over to some dear friends' house for dinner. We had a lot of dishes in the sink because one of the girls made pretzels. There were also dishes from other home projects like soap and bath bomb making.
Daily Project 5-31-20 - Weeded Garden & Planted Starters
Sundays are usually more restful than the other days of the week. However, today, was busier than normal because after online church, I did some catch up schoolwork with the girls and then I weeded our garden and planted our starters.
(While we were in Florida, it stormed hard and only a few seeds we planted sprouted. I needed to plant new seeds inside. They sprouted well in the portable/mini greenhouse!)
Daily Project 5-30-20 - Target Run
I used to make weekly Target runs and sometimes they were biweekly runs (or more). I discovered that I spent so much money when I went to Target that I needed to limit my time there. As a result, I have cut my visit to Target to once a month. I don't need much from there, but I do get my husband's breakfast cereal and snacks there and some housecleaning products. Even though my final bill is big because I buy a month's supply's worth, at the end of the month, the once a month trip saves us a bunch!
My girls also needed sandals for the summer, so we also went sandal shopping.
The Target run took all day and by the time I got home, I didn't have any energy left to do any home organizational work.
Why No Cleaned Kitchen Before Bed on 5-28 and 5-29?
My husband and I usually go out on a dinner date on Thursdays. We went to Smashburger on Thursday and left the girls to fend for their own dinner. I didn't leave them with instructions to clean up so they didn't.
My husband and I facilitate a Small Group Bible study on Friday evenings. We didn't have time to cook dinner so I asked DearHubby to bring home take out. There really wasn't much kitchen clean up to do because of that. We had a small Small Group, but it was still very encouraging!
Why No Daily Projects for 5-28 & 29?
During the quarantine, my girls and I have filmed a series called "The Quarantine". Since we filmed a show on Wednesday, that left me with Thursday to double up on school work and homeschool life was my main focus. On Friday morning, I spent some time making the final edits to our show, which left me with only a few hours to finish up the week's school work with the girls and no time for any home organizational projects.
My time with "The Quarantine" is done. Last week's show was the last show I would be involved with because it was taking up too much time to film and edit. We made the first show as a challenge from the girls' youth group leader. When we sent the link to my family, they raved about it so much and asked for more. We didn't intend to make any more, but since there were requests, especially from my grandma, we delivered more shows. I don't think anyone watched the other shows so I decided that, for me, I could move on to use my time in other ways. My older girls still want to produce more shows. Will they actually do more? I'll wait and see.
