I have been struggling to learn a new set of computer codes this week. It is a struggle because I think that while my brain is very adept at memorizing recipes, translating French, and sewing tiny tucks in heirloom outfits html codes seem to get stuck somewhere between how to clean the toilet and how […]

I read something today that bothered me. Troubled me.
I live in Texas, a very easy place to homeschool. Maybe too easy. I don’t know. It seems like more and more homeschooling parents are buying into the system, making choices that I think that they are ultimately going to regret. Sort of like inviting a door […]

Doing a little blog surfing of my favorite homeschool sites this morning and I came across a link to Relaxed Homeskool that was humorous, but also poignant. I read what Principled Discovery had to say about it…and now I am sorting through my own feelings.
I have homeschooled continuously since 1989. That […]
AS you can probably tell from my posts things are almost out of control hectic around here. In the past five years I have gone from a very organized homeschool mom to a very disorganized one. I have added several hats to my head, and a much larger house, along with goats, chickens […]

Sometimes it is so busy here that dinner just does not get eaten! My grandson Gabe in a classic pose.
Well after all of that…Matt got a 100 on his algebra. I said, I thought you didn’t get it. He just shrugged.
Isn’t that the way though. Just when we are at the end of our ropes […]

So, even though I got off to a great start this week, yesterday the VA took much longer than anticipated and so, I find myself back to feeling like i am on the hamster wheel again.
I don’t know, maybe you can’t identify, but I feel as if I would love the world to totally halt […]

So today things will be up in the air here. I have to take Marc tot he VA for another appointment, actually two. That means being gone all day.
Probably be able to juggle it though. Matt will be able to do everything but algebra without me, in fact, as I think about it, everyone will […]
I enjoy reading Principled Discovery because it helps me keep up with what is happening in the homeschooling world…That may sound odd, but I really am pulled in so many directions these days that I tend to take life one chore at a time, and use what is left over for sleep. I suspect there […]
