Why, yes! I am an arrogant jerk!
A while back, a soon-to-be homeschooler wrote about her decision to homeschool her children next year and the preparations she’s making. Her excitement and worries are familiar sounding for most homeschoolers. In fact, she’s ahead of the game of a lot of us (meaning me) when we started. So, yay! Another homeschooler! But what caught […]

Flowers, links and personal stuff
This was taken beside a highway west of Fredricksburg in April 2004. The bluebonnets are beginning to bloom in North Texas. Saturday we had the Sprite’s birthday at a farmhouse museum, and I got my first glimpse of bluebonnets. Today, I saw a nice swath of all sorts of wildflowers on the way to a […]

Surfacing for air
It has been a hectic, crazy, busy, insane (redundant much?) time in our household. Thus, I’ve not blogged and have missed out on some fun. For example, Dana at Principled Discovery has been celebrating Home Education Week in Nebraska with a series of post and inviting others to join in. Very cool. I missed it. […]

Getting around to the Green Hour
So we finally did our Green Hour Challenge, assignment 1. Yes, I know everyone else is on Green Hour 27, but we’re doing it now. I hate to conform. So we went outside, we looked, we splashed, we threw rocks. There is a very nice nature preserve about 10 minutes from us. We headed off […]

Good news and Good links
The Henry Cate at Why Homeschool has started “Good News Thursday” where you can link your own bit of good news. He explains: I invite you to join with me in focusing on good news. This can be as local as the newspaper boy put the paper on your doorstep. It could as earth shattering […]

linkable stuff
Yesterday was the COH, but for some reason I couldn’t open up the links in tabs. Most of these products that you see out on the floor, keep arms at your sides, twist the knees, levitra online and place the heels on the floor. For availing the best efforts from this drug impute you need […]

Dude, are you stoned?
I seriously think teacher’s union representative on the California homeschool case who was interviewed by NPR’s “All Things Considered” was altered — chemically (or herbally). A sample of his statement: Dude, yeah, it’s cool, you need training, man. You make us take all these tests and do all this stuff just to teach some punk […]

I’m a Demograhic!
And an irresponsible one at that. I took my sick kids to infest the polling place today. It was pretty empty, so I don’t feel too guilty. And I think only one of them is sick now, but don’t quote me on that. I also took them to the grocery store, which I wouldn’t have […]

What she said
The Carnival of Homeschooling is up at the Daily Planet. (Is it just me, or does it seem like definite articles are overdone in that sentence?) I’m tired. The kids are still sick. Again. Some more. So I’m not reading all the entries tonight. But this article by Rational Jenn is definitely worth reading. She […]

Carnivals, new and less new
It’s Carnival day. The Charlotte Mason Blog Carnival: A Good Airing is up, all about “Mother Culture.” I’m still going through the entries, but Tea Party has a very encouraging post entitled, “It’s Not All Up to You.”Carnival of Homeschooling is up. And Carnival of Principled Government, which I keep missing for entries and reading, […]
