Good Thursday morning to all...and Happy St. Patricks Day! Did you remember to wear green? I haven't put any on yet!
Welcome to my weekly squidoo blog hop. I hope you will hop along with us!
For this week I am back to the bottom of my lens list.
On the bottom is Our Unschooling Journey Part 2-- I really need to figure out how I can keep updating these, even though they are old. They stay at the bottom of the list. I looked through this lens and did some updating, and even corrected a typing mistake that I seen. I have fun looking back on these as they were 2 years ago. I love looking at the photos. She's not a little girl anymore and 2 years later, she really isn't!
Next up is Marsha's Blujay Store--I did update this one to add a link to my etsy store lens. I am noticing that the RSS feed is only showing one item. If anyone knows why this is happening, please tell me! I clicked to edit it and things look good there.

I think my entire life is a WIP!! I was going to come in and say that I have no WIP's other than the placemats I am making for out table. (On those, I now have completed 4, which you will see in the photo of the table. I have 2 more to complete for the set of 6.)
I can't say that's my only WIP. I have that quilt that I need to get back to and finish. I'm still in the process of unpacking. I'm down to the craft room, but working slowly at it after busting my you know what unpacking the rest of the house. I would love if you would hop over to my album on gather to check out the progress of settling in to the house. Our New Home
I'm also always in the process of reading books to review. Currently I am reading an autobiography of the comedian Pat Cooper. It's a good read, very interesting. I am so behind of getting my book reviews written....and I have a virtual book tour that needs to be done as well!
Anyway...we are going to head to his sister's house so the garden can start being a work in progress. I need to pull out my rhubarb, onions, and some of the strawberries from the garden there. Hopefully then this next week we can get at least a couple of tomato and bell pepper plants to put in. I'm not planning a very large garden this first year. Soon I also need to get over to my daughter's bf's house and dig up my irises.
Until next week!
Marsha

Thanks so much to those of you who entered!
First of all, let me apologize for not posting last week! I didn't even realize and think about it until Sunday. As you know, we were moving to our new house starting last Wednesday. We settled in to the house as our home right away. We still have quite a bit of unpacking to do...or I should say that I do.
For this week, I want to go back to sharing the lenses that are on the bottom of my list of lenses. Yikes! One of them had gone over the 500,000 mark on lens rank.
Our Homeschool Journey 2010/2011 Part 3---I've taken the time to get this one updated this morning. It's a week past time to start building part 4. I do hope to get to that soon, as well as building more book review lenses!
Next up is Our Unschooling Journey 3--this was part 3 of my attempt to allow Jasmine to unschool. I don't really know what to do as far as updating these since it's over...with the exception of adding links to our homeschool journey lenses for this year. Any tips and hints will be appreciated.
Thanks for your attention, and I hope to see you hop along with us this week. The linky stays live for a week and you are welcome to share any and all blog posts you have posted that mention squidoo in them!! Please, since I missed last week, link up any that you did last week as well. Thanks!
Happy WIP Wednesday!
Our WIP here is still our move. We've only been living in the house 4 days but for some reason it feels like a long time. I love that we all feel so at home here.
Below is a photo of what my "craft" room is looking like right now. Notice that my sewing machine is out, as I did have a bag order to get completed this week. I'm anxious to get the room organized now that most everything else is now unpacked.
The kitchen is completely unpacked so I thought I would include a photo there too. You will notice my still a WIP of the placemats I am making. The one out of 6 I am making that is done, is on the table.
