Here is an answer to socialization........... and one of the reasons why my children are no longer in public school. And if one more person asks me "what about socialization" they may find me "GOING OFF" on them!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I want my kids to have an education and to fear the Lord, not to be instructed on how to take a leap test and fear for thier lives. My children have many friends, I know

Today March 10th makes one year since my Mother-in-law passed on. I still think about her every day. I even have dreams about her. I am pretty sure that she has visited me there. I am still very lonesome for her voice and her smile. I don't think that will ever go away. Life goes on.....for the rest of us.

This is an interesting email that I thought I would share.Don't know how true this is but here goes:There is one Christmas Carol that has always baffled me.What in the world do leaping lords, French hens, swimming swans, and especially the partridge who won't come out of the pear tree have to do with Christmas?This week, I found out.

Lord help me! I don't know if I am in a funk because my husband and youngest boy went out of town for three days or if I am loosing my mind.Yesterday I snapped at my mother about going to drop off 8 bags of clothes at the thrift store. I had a decent time, but didn't manage to look at much for myself, since oldest boy was ready to go. Sure he was ready to go after I shopped for him for 45 min.

Now we are watching Hanna, Ike, Josephine and whatever else comes next.I would rather not talk much about the pains of evacuation, but rather the high points of it. We went to Picayune MS which is not that far away from New Orleans. But our elevation was a safe 200+ so we didn't have to worry about flooding. We were

Do you still use paper or plastic bags for your shopping?Maybe you could try making your own instead.I inherited 5 yards of really loud purple and neon flowered crepe. What to do? Make grocery bags of course. The cashiers often giggle and say "Oh, they all match!" Which happens to be code for "Eww. I can't believe you came out of the house with those."The picture is tame. They are more garishly

New Orleans Lakefront Lighthouse- I'm hoping ya'll will take a sec, (and it only takes a sec) to help out. Our lighthouse on Lake Pontchartrain in New Orleans was destroyed by Katrina. Built in the 1890s, the lighthouse has been a lakefront landmark for years, guiding boats in and out of the Orleans Marina and the Municipal Yacht Harbor. Some of the original materials were salvaged and they're

Mother's day was sad. My MIL was in heaven, and my Mom was in Georgia visiting my brother. My FIL came here for a visit to see his mom. I ended up making a chicken and sausage gumbo. And cleaning my own house. What's up with that!!!It is Mother's day darnit. I should be pampered and not have to lift a finger...... Sorry, I was just dreaming.

I am relieved that she is no longer suffering.So when I say God has turned my mourning into dancing, and my sorrow into joy. I am not trying to offend those who need time to mourn.

You may not agree with my homeschooling my children. All that I ask is that if you pray for me, that you pray for God's will to be done. Homeschooling is hard, but we have learned by leaps and bounds. I had no way to comprehend the amount of work and love that goes into teaching my children, until I took on the responsibility that I feel God has led me to. I am not "certified" but how many are "

Our friend "Tank" ,Thelonius Dukes, was shot this morning. This is a really Great guy! It just saddens me that people have no regard for life. This officer is a 19 year veteran of the New Orleans Police Dept., He stayed through Katrina. Tank was an officer in the Child Abuse Division ,and more recently in Narcotics Division. When I say a Great Guy, I am not kidding, he didn't know any strangers.

Wow, I have been blessed sooo much today.One of the ladies of our needlework guild gifted me with yarn! A LOT of yarn. All of it wool. I have been seeing the new trend (felting) and I kept thinking, I would never spend that much money on a good quality yarn, just to felt it! But surprise I have wool yarn coming out of my ears.....I have 400- 1 oz. balls of drab olive fingering yarn, any

I thought about posting every day like some people do. I just don't want it to feel like a chore. Sometimes I just don't have anything to say. Other times I have something really cute that I am knitting, but I just don't have a digital camera.I don't have many people that stop by and say hello.I think I offend some people.I am not a "Bible Beater". So,for one reason or another no one reads this

I keep asking myself if homeschooling is right for us. The answer is YES!If you are unsure, I have found a book at the library that will help you to decide.The Complete Guide to Homeschooling, by John and Kathy Perry.This is a GREAT book. Even if you are not a homeschooler, or are one of those who have a million questions, and think we are crazy. Than this book is for you, too!When I read in this

Theodore Roosevelt's ideas on Immigrants and being an AMERICAN in 1907."In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated

Postpartum depression!Yeah, I admit it! After the birth of my first child, it was very mild. During my second pregnancy it became worse. After the birth of my second child it was horrible. I did not seek treatment, because I did not know I had it. 2 years later, When I miraculously "snapped" out of it.

I have an Uncle who died today. I am feeling sad, but oddly relieved. When my Aunt M. died a few years ago, it really threw us all(malpractice???) She was very sweet, and my Grandmother's only sister. Since her death my Uncle has really been having a hard time coping. After 50+ years of Marriage I guess I would too! The circumstances surrounding his passing will leave many to speculate for years.

My eldest son and I took a long walk and found ourselves in city park today. Our City park just so happens to be next to our museum and a sculpture garden. We decided to have a stroll through this garden. It is free, with donations. We had a good time, but I had some 'splainin' to do. I really had not thought that an 11 yr old would be shocked by a sculpture of a naked woman, or naked men, but he

She found a bunch of old letters from WWII and some pattern books(in Norwegian) from some my H's Mor-Mor.Well I kept the stamps from some of the letters, and my H's Bestemama gave me the pattern books. As I was perusing through these I found a pattern book for a sweater that is almost identical to a sweater that Silja finished for MrT.Of course it is a

Yesterday, I decided to make some shorts for my son. He is outgrowing everything so quickly. I have a really good pattern for shorts, with a zipper but I didn't have the back panel-don't know where it went to!Then I remembered when the boys were wee ones, I had a very simple pattern that makes a left and right panel. I have figured out how to do this after much forgotten experience. The really

This is an email that was sent to me. The author is unknown. The sentiment is real. If you have ever been a part of New Orleans as I am, you would understand. We are a different breed of people.

With all of the chemicals that we ingest everyday, sometimes we just have to go back to basics.I am no longer using Canola oil, but am switching back to EVOO- extra virgin olive oil.Some say Canola oil is bad, others say it is good. I know for a fact olive oil is good. So back to Olive Oil.

I thought I should update people on the Children's Hospital donation project. Their cup runneth o'er. So just send them blankets for now. Ronald McDonald house is still taking items, mostly older children items. But I imagine they also need blankets.If you are still looking for an outlet for all of your creations try calling hospitals in your area.

I am very disgusted today. Yesterday I watched people from the State cleaning out a school in my neighborhood. They were throwing everything in the dumpster and they were not allowing anyone to take anything. I managed to talk to some of the former teachers of this school. They were most distressed. They and I cannot believe that the state of LA has sent people to come and throw away the entire

Today is my stepdaughter's 18th birthday. Wooooo-Hooooo. I didn't think we would make it in one piece. Her teenage years were absolutely horrid. Many things have happened to her in her life.

I must say I am not surprised by the latest developments in LA's public schools. Guns,knives,pepperspray,deterioration of the public school environment,the lack of self control, and the banning of God.Just to name a few. These add to why I homeschool.Thank You,Lord for helping me in every step of homeschooling. Thank You for giving me courage to stand up for what I believe You want for our family
