Since i live in Central Florida, yes, I know who Scott Frost is. However, I wouldn't think he would be that well known generally in college football circles unless you are talking about super fans . Imho, Nebraska is lucky to have Frost.

Come to Florida! North Florida is very conservative and not bad on cost of living. I think our home school laws are super easy to comply with! No state income tax although property tax and home owner's insurance can be on the expensive side, but not as much in north Florida. And then there are the beautiful Gulf Beaches, and, in central Florida, the theme parks. I love living here!

I think I am looking for something that doesn't exist. My daughter wants history that is not online, and not a large textbook either. I've looked at Notgrass, Mystery of History and other Christian options, but I really want her history focus to be neutral if possible. We are a Christian family, but I am not in favor of skewed or biased history. I would love to know if anyone has found an option like I am describing.

When I turned 50 two years ago, I was feeling how you are now. Although I was a full-time teacher, my daughter had just become a teenager and no longer needed me like she did before. We were still home schooling, but she was much more independent. I began to really focus on my needs for the first time since she had been born. I started walking and lost 20 pounds. I upgraded my wardrobe, and joined groups to meet friends. I met my now best friend that way, and her support has been amazing. My husband and I are separated, but still living together mostly for financial reasons. It has been very amicable because we both realized that we really want different things out of life. We have separate bedrooms, and my daughter describes the three of us as roommates ? A few years ago, I would have been super depressed about ever thinking of divorce and eventually being on my own, but making the positive changes I've made, including separation as a married couple, has been beneficially for me and my family.

I agree with St. Augustine, Savannah and Charleston. We now live in the Orlando area, and I took my 14 year old daughter to St. Augustine last summer, and she had a great time. We visited the fort, the old school house and several museums. I know she learned a lot. We also spent time at the beach. A few years ago, we lived in central Georgia, and we took her as a 9 year old to Savannah and Charleston. She loved Ft. Sumter even though i was afraid she would be bored!. She still talks about that trip, and the old churches and River walk in Savannah too.
Btw, I am not a new poster. I am leeannpal, but when the new boards came in, I had t re-register for some reason. I've been on the boards since I fist started thinking about homeschooling 8 years ago ?

I had terrible cystic acne as a teen. I found out years later it was due to hormone imbalances. I also have PCOS. I would have her checked out by a gynecologist. Cystic acne is not usually caused by diet.

This is Why Healthcare for Profit is Wrong
in The Chat Board
Posted
But big business has earned your trust? I can't see how things can get much worse. The cost of basic healthcare in America is highly prohibitive for many Americans. Even those who have insurance often can't afford the deductibles. Imagine how much harder it is to get well from an illness or accident if you are constantly stressed over how you are going to pay the medical bills. Our "system" is going to burst just like the housing bubble in 2008, but at the cost of many lives. I am more than happy to let the government have a go if it means that I don't have to take second and third jobs to pay for medical care.
