Scheme of the Week

Usually it's Randy who has these "schemes of the week" .. in fact he often has them daily rather than weekly.  He's one of those guys who is just always looking for a new project to start, or a new way to make money ... usually they are finished before they even begin, but that doesn't stop him from  making new plans all the time.

I have some myself ... like this blog, or a new workout routine, playgroups etc.  But most of mine are related to self-improvement rather than money making.  Over the last week or so, I've been scheming for a new income generating project that I'll be excited to actually announce in the next couple weeks, should I decide that it is something I'll follow through with.

There's been little to tell around here since my last post.  I'll be opening Teachable Moments childcare on (hopefully), June 1st and there's been a lot of preparations to be done to be ready.  The biggest of which is landscaping the backyard.   We recently gave away our two very large dogs.  They were too big to fit in our small house, so they spent most of their time in the backyard and because we didn't walk them nearly enough they were bored and took to digging.  We've ordered topsoil, and it was delivered the same day we had a tornado warning, and today it's rained/hailed off and on all day, so we'll be spending the weekend lugging the soil to the back ... then next week laying sod, setting up the swing set etc.

The amount of work to be done is intimidating!  But will be worth it in the end, I'm excited to have a useable backyard again that the kids can enjoy.  :)
