  1. We've experienced this, too. This year the leaders are having everyone put their phones in a box when they arrive. It has really helped.
  2. We just spent the week near Yosemite National Park. It was busy but amazing. I hope we get back there someday. Great hiking and stunnng views.
  3. I agree with all the previous posters that say she should quit now.
  4. I'm right in the middle of this with ds18. It is so hard. I have the feeling that we're not going to be through it anytime soon.
  5. So far, age 16 for my 2 older girls that were homechooled, and 15 for my ds 18 who attended public school. I will have a new driver in December, so we will have to decide if he's getting a smart phone or a dumb phone.
  6. I would have picked my kid up. Who wants to be dealing with stomach issues at camp? That would be awful. I think you definitely did the right thing.
  7. We paid for basic cell service with a flip phone when they started driving at 16. When they each decided to have a smart phone, they paid for it. My 2 older kids are on our plan, but they pay us for the monthly service. My ds 18 is on his own plan and started paying for it when he was 17. This was his choice.
  8. Exercise, dog hair, and unexpected expenses. But, lots of love in return. We have our first dog in 8 years and we all adore her!
  9. My dds both took AP Eng Lang and AP Eng Lit with Ms. Serbicki. They really liked her and the classes.
  10. I've seen some strange houses listed before, but this one beats them all. It's dreadful.
  11. :grouphug: :grouphug: Praying for Jenna and your entire family.
  12. I thought about switching my dd to her class, but did you notice the price? She may be a great teacher, but $1250 for the year is way too much for us!
  13. I have to agree with all of these posts. Physics is not my ds15's favorite subject, but this was his favorite class so far. Jetta is an awesome teacher!
  14. My oldest is graduating with a BS in Plant Sciences. She was my guinea pig and did well in college. She had aways said she wasn't going on for her MS, but now she is planning to work for a year and work on applications. She's thinking of an MBA in some concentration. I'm excited about this plan for her and am glad she changed her mind. She is still happy that she chose homeschooling.
  15. We've all been suffering for over a month now, and we're so tired of it. For us, it's the itchy eyes that are the worst.
  16. We have 2 big refrigerators and they are definitely not full of soda and beer. Our need for space is directly related to the amount of people living here and the fact that I hate grocery shopping.
  17. Yes. I can't stand starting the day with the kitchen a mess.
  18. Being nauseous at the thought or smell of coffee was like a pregnancy test for me. I'm a coffee drinker but can't stand it while I'm pregnant. This made life so much easier than having to give it up.
  19. Just finished 100 Cupboards. My dd12 and dd8 listened and sometimes ds15.
