Short Break During Re-Evaluation Period

I am currently reevaluating the uses of this blog.  During the past year, I used it as a platform for sharing a little about what we were going through as a homeschooling family as well as sharing some of my thoughts on homeschooling itself. 

This was my way of stepping gently into the blogging world.  I am now considering using my blog in a different way.  I have so many ideas, plans and thoughts that are started with only the best of intentions, but I often lack in my follow through.  I do not want this to be one of those situations.  I only want to do this if I can and will be able to follow through with the completion.  This is my thought...

I had wanted to write a curriculum for homeschoolers in the past.  While it is still a dream of mine, I am not sure I need to completely reinvent the wheel.  I am not sure that I need to write from the beginning each and every subject.  There are so very many resources out there!  What I think I would like to do, however, is to create a curriculum that utilizes some of these current resources and organize them into a system that is easy to us, inexpensive to implement and maintain, and effective.  I don't want to simply make a list of available resources, but to layout lesson plans and such for those who prefer to have a guideline to follow. 

I would like to do this and would like to complete it.  I am not writing new posts at this point, while I consider all of the requirements this will bring about and then while I begin (if I do indeed take on this project). 

Wish me luck and check back to see changes and developments in this plan of mine.

Blessings to all!
