I’m new to blogs but I just wanted to say that I like your blog here on homeschooling new zealand. It kept me reading all the way to the end… And then I went and searched for some more posts after that. :) Keep up the good work, I’m always looking to learn more about Home Schooling, in particular.

As for burnout avoidance – sleep is the most important. You can survive many days without food, but not sleep. Next to that is water! Once these are going then it is easier to think clearly. I try to run my offers out or to be involved in something past my hubby. I am not good at gauging time and commitment, but hubby is :-) This has helped immensely. As a Christian I need some time reading God’s Word (transforming my mind) and praying (building my relationship). In addition, I agree with Christina – a plan for the day so you know where you are heading (and whether it is realistic) and something to look forward to – a programme you enjoy, craft time, a special book, coffee with friends or spouse.
Great topic Rachel!! We all need to regularly check ourselves in this regard. A Warrant of Fitness every term would be good to implement!

With lots of free time to fit in the other fun stuff. Also, some regular (perhaps monthly) time away from the home, without the kids, maybe to have a cuppa with friends or a meal with the spouse. Something to look forward to. Obviously, we all need to have a decent sleep at least once a day, combined with healthy food and moderate exercise, to have enough energy and freshness to cope with all the extra demands our lovely little ones put onto us. It also helps to have a support person or three to call on it times of extra need or stress, so maintaining good friendships and happy extended family connections is very helpful.
Hope this helps!

I had forgotten about homeschoolshare. It was nice meeting you tonight (for me :) I love ‘attending’ Cindy’s workshops. They are the only homeschool conferences I am able to do. I participate in the MommyHomework on her site and have been able to buy a ticket through that. I am able to save my $ for curriculum then–or library late fees ;)
Thanks!
