My blog title really isn’t an expression of what I’m feeling right now. It’s probably leaning more towards the air of sarcasm, but we’ll pretend that’s not the case. These last couple of days, I’ve been sending out hundreds of emails to homeschool groups around the US, informing them of the existence of Bit & Bridle Magazine. It’s a lot of tedious work, but I pray it pays off. I’ve already been seeing some interest so I believe the results will be good. The thought to start my email chain was birthed by the memory of how I first learned of B&B. It was through an email, sent to my mom a few years ago by a homeschool group in my area. Who would’ve thought I’d be editor a few short years later. Huh. God works in mysterious ways! I won’t complain about that one. :) So that’s what I’ve been busying myself with these week.

Btw, I added 550 words to the book tonight, even amidst all the emails I was sending. It feels good to accomplish many tasks at once!
