13 Things I Am Looking Forward To

1. A gathering of Maier cousins Saturday night.

2. The return of the family. Frank and MJ will probably arrive home Sunday night, and Mom and Tom, somewhere in there, too, I think.

3. A visit from Mary and Qacei next week.

4. A visit from the Waynforths mid-May.

5. The LIFE is Good Unschooling Conference in Vancouver, Washington, where (in addition to seeing some great friends and breathing in the best 'air' in the world) I will be giving two talks, hosting a funshop, leading a drum circle, moderating the teen panel, and volunteering at the raffle. Phew!

6. The Maier Family Reunion here and in Manzanita, Oregon, in late July.

7. A visit from my dad and Renee in August.

8. A week alone with Frank while the girls are at NBTSC in August.

9. Good Vibrations Unschooling Conference in San Diego in September.

and somewhere in there...

10. Returning to work.

11. Cleaning out the backyard.

12. Painting the house.

13. Finding the energy to do it all.
