I’ve been wanting to play along with Bench Monday for awhile now, but lacked the time and creative juices. But I must admit that through all this craziness (packing, purging, refurbishing) and with the impending journey (we leave two weeks from today!) I’m feeling freer and um, juicier (!) than ever.
This week is crunch week. Tagging, arranging, selling and giving away 95% of your possessions may be the most liberating thing you can do…but you still have to get through the actual process. So, if you don’t see me online much this week, you’ll know I’m kicking butt. (If you do see me online, it might mean I need my own butt kicked).
So I leave you with some linky love to share:
- I’ve been listening and loving this whole CD while I work.
- Been hanging out with this awesome family while they work on Benny!
- Justin has been spending a lot of time and learning tons on this forum.
- Zeb has been passing the days with a lot of this game.
- Not quite getting the hang of this site but enjoying connecting with my family nevertheless.
- Thinking I need to make one of these clocks for the road!
- And this video had me tearing up – so inspiring!
What awesomeness have you been enjoying?






Wow. I am new to homeschooling at that video gives me so much encouragement! Thank you for sharing!
OMG, two weeks! Yea!!! Good luck with the purge and may you make some good cash, too!
I love that picture. No, I mean like that picture is completely awesome!!!!!!
Two weeks…holy mama!
I have to agree with Hillary, that picture is great. It totally caught my eye its really neat.
That clock cracked me up. Will check out some of the other links. Good luck getting everything done!
I love the clock and may have to order it! I can’t think of a better place to remind myself to stay in the moment. Thanks for that one!
“We leave two weeks from today!” Yeah!! The countdown. VERY exciting. Sounds like you all are making some huge progress! We are excited for you. May the rest of your progress go smoothly for you.
Love that CD!
Hi! I just recently started following your blog. I found your link on http://www.travelingontheoutskirts.com My husband and I are in the process of selling everything and moving into an RV with our 2yo and 4yo. I’d say we’re about six months behind your family, hopefully less. We unschool, too; in fact, that’s a big part of what is compelling us to get out there and experience life while our children are young.
Your story is an inspiration to us! Oh, and I loved the link you shared here to the video of the unschooling camp. The young people in the video reminded me of this article:

I hope I can encourage my children to stay unique, curious, adventurous, and uncalloused like the teens at that camp!
