<p>Come share your experiences, your favorites, and your suggestions for homeschooling and for life in the Lone Star State.</p>

<p>This group is a resource for those who like to live as synthetic-chemical free as possible. Share products for cleaning, cooking, skin care, etc. that are less toxic. Let us know what you've found that works as well as mainstream items and where we can find it!</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> We will have differences of opinion on the acceptability of some ingredients/products. Let's respect that.</p>

<p>A group to discuss frugal living and cost-cutting. For those who are "Frugal Zealots" and those that are less zealous and anywhere in between.</p>

<p>A place to discuss special dietary needs, exchange recipes and resources.</p>

<p>Whether we call them crockpots or slow cookers, whether we use them them for soups or desserts, we are united in our loathing of cream of cr*p soup as an ingredient.</p> <p> </p> <p> So, post about your crockpot or slow cooker here. Post your tried and true, or tried and goo recipes. But most of all share your abilities to cook a great meal in an electric device without having to resort to cream of cr*p soup.</p>

<p>This group to support professionals, amateurs, music lovers, parents, and students of all ages.</p>

<p>This is a group of us who share 1-3 accomplishments that we've had a hard time getting to... whether it's 5 minutes cleaning around the washer and dryer, filing a stack of papers, or cleaning under a bed or in a closet.</p> <p> </p> <p> Post here and encourage one another. Give a high-five. We are busy people. Life gets hard. Sometimes we keep putting off a task that desperately needs our attention. </p> <p> </p> <p> So, let's try to do 1-3 things that we keep putting off for a "bit of time" each day and share about it.</p>

<p>Follow the Nourishing Traditions/Eat Fat Lose Fat type of eating/diet.</p>

<p>Here's a good place to ask for prayers. If you need a prayer, list it here; and, if you do list one, when things are resolved or come to fruition, would you be so kind to update.</p>

<p>A group for military homeschoolers. We all have special troubles like pcs, deployments, multiple tdys, always being new, etc. Let's join together and help each other out</p>

<p>Rediscovering the ancient roots of Christianity.</p>

<p>A group dedicated to cooking, recipes, ideas and tips</p>

<p>Practice German here. Hier schreibt man nur Deutsch!</p>

<p>This is a group for Christians who do not fit the "conservative" model often embraced by homeschoolers. It's a welcoming place for a wide variety of spiritual thought. We are inclusive rather than secular.</p> <p> </p> <p> Harry Potter, Guitar Hero, the Bible, Halloween, and Merry Christmas are welcome here.</p>

<p>"The word of God is alive and exerts power and is sharper than any two-edged sword and pierces even to the dividing of soul and spirit, and of joints and their marrow, and is able to discern thoughts and intentions of the heart." (Heb. 4:12) I want to keep this group for Christians to feel free to quote scripture, etc. as it applies to their parenting. Any techniques or books that speak to you are welcome. I am currently very impressed with Boundaries for Kids. Raising Godly Tomatoes was the first parenting book I read with a Biblical view, but other views are more than welcome. I actually disagree with the emphasis on spanking. Disagreeing with aspects of the book as it applies to your individual children is acceptable. ie: (That does not work for us, but it is okay if it works for you.)</p>

<p>A place for good books and great conversation.</p>

<p>Are you a pastor's wife, a ministry wife, or in "professional ministry" yourself? This group is here to provide a safe place to discuss issues related to "life in the fishbowl."</p>
