A Tuesday post?! What?!! Yes, I did indeed miss posting last Friday. It was a busy week and I wanted to post my 2023 reading plans but I hadn’t made them yet. And I still haven’t but I want to follow through on my commitment to post so I’ll share reading plans another time and…
5:30am- My alarm scares me awake. I don’t want to be awake. I take off the arm/thumb braces I slept in last night and update my app with my overnight temperature. I also check some emails and fill out the RapidPass questionnaire for my blood donation before actually getting up at 6:15. I feed the…
It’s a late post this week as it’s been a busy week and Mr. McGoozle is preparing to take off to the wilds of Canada tomorrow. (Featured photo from skiing yesterday.)

This was our first day trying to get back to our normal routine after a trip to Michigan to visit family for Mrs. McGoozle and the kids and a 12-day work trip for Mr. McGoozle. 7:00 am: Everyone woke up and gradually made their way downstairs to get ready for the day. The kids played…

Hello! We’re the McGoozles (a funny name we made up for ourselves): Mrs., Mr., Stubby, Smiley, Squeaky, and our cat, Slinky. We live in beautiful SW Montana and use this space to share about our life homeschooling, adventuring, and following Jesus.
