  1. How desperate are you to get out of it? With this market, you may sit on it for a LONG time & it is a buyers markey. We just sold our house (I Hope). We lost all our equity in it, we made NO money off of it BUT it is GONE. No more two mortgages. So how desperate are you??? That is the question....
  2. How many do you have for the week? I love this idea for my daughter. Would you recommend for a 13 yo? This seems no different then our cloth diaper days. Thanks for this info!
  3. We are going to be using zoology 2 this next year. I am curious to know if the expense of the lab kits is worth the investment. I am always short of lab supplies and this seems like a nice option. anyone purchase one? Pros/Cons please
  4. So we are struggling to make BOTH our mortgage payments. Yes, we are carrying TWO mortgages - YUCK! Medical bills are arising from our daughter's cancer & we are TRYINg desperately to sell the one home but no luck yet. I have never heard of this. So far we are making the payments on both BUT we are sacrificing in adding tremendous debt to our credit cards which in turn of course shows that we simply can not make both payments. So has anyone applied for this???
  5. I just bought Sonlight Core F. I am using it with 2 children this year thus the need for 2 activity sheets. BUT I am a saver because I think my teacher notes are so valuable for when I do it again with my next set of children when they come around to it. I believe - don't fix what is broke with my curriculm buying. My question is...in 4 years when I use it again, the activity sheets will not longer be available to purchase for the copyright that I have now. So do I buy an extra set of activity sheets now & store them for later??? What is the cheapest way to do this? I don't want to use sheets over my activity sheets. I hate wiping off every night the sheets - it's an extra hassle in my mind. Thanks in advance!
  6. My son has chronic, horrible bad breath. We have taken him to the dentist - received no input. We have tried mouth rinses. No avail. It is worse when he has a sinus infection but that is not the case right now. I have even tried brushing & flossing for him - no help. any advice would greatly be appreciated - everyone comments on it & he is really frustrated by it... Blessings
  7. Our daughter, she is 6, was diagnosed Dec. 24, 2009. She has been fighting for ever since. She just went through a stem cell transplant as our last ditch effort for her. Heartbreaking to say the least.. Now we wait to see if it worked. It is a very hard road. My advice - do what you can for the caregivers. It is very hard on them. Your family will be in my prayers. Blessings Tanya
  8. Is there any curriculum out there that studies the Eastern Hemisphere for art or music? We are utilizing Sonlight Core F next year. Just wondering if anyone else has done this. Thanks!
  9. I am looking into this myself. Name the shops you hit please. Thanks! Especially the one in Kansas.:tongue_smilie:
  10. We have used Saxon for the last 3 years. My daughter loves it but I am looking to simplify my teaching/grading load. Many of my friends rave about this math program. Honestly, I have always believed if something is working than don't change it but something has got to give. I can't grade & teaching 5 different kids. She will be completing Saxon algebra 1 this next year. So what would you do? Stay with what works well or make change for ease sake? :bigear: Tanya
  11. I am about the order sonlight with their payment plan. Has anyone utilized this and run into any problems?? This will be my first time utilizing their payment plan. Thanks in advance!
  12. I need ideas for a bday gift for a 13 yo girl who HATES to shop - so no clothing gift cards. She loves to read but wants something more than Barnes & Noble gift cards for her Nook. I am all out of ideas.. Thanks!
  13. I am interested in finding a 1st Latin course for my 8th grade daughter next year. She is a very independent learner. What course have you used? Do you still see good retention later? I want to have Latin as a spring board for her High School Spanish courses. Also, I believe it is great for vocabulary building. Thanks in advance!
  14. I am stuck in the hospital with my daughter for the next two plus weeks...Wanting to watch some TLC episodes from 19 and counting, Jon & Kate plus 8, etc... Anywhere to watch them for free??? Tanya
  15. Does anyone have one?? I see a lot of talk about the ipad but what about this tablet? Anyone???:bigear:
  16. My husband's company has given us a romantic getaway to Vegas for 3 days/3 nights. Anyone been there recently? We are NOT gamblers...and desire maybe to take in a show or two.... We leave in 10 days. Thanks for the insight.
  17. I just received a 1099 MISC from State of KS for $8290.00, nonemployee compensation. It does have my social security number on it. (This is where we live.) I haven't worked in 12 years! I have been married to same man with same children that we have made together or adopted through the state - so no I don't owe child support. We are not delinquent on anything. I just can't fathom what this is! It drops our refund down $1000.00. I am so mad! I will be calling in the morning but I am worried about identity theft now & what it could possibly be!!! Thanks for listening and allowing my vent.
  18. Looking for some new apps that I can download while daughter gets chemo. What are your favorites??
  19. My 7 yo son has had recurrent mouth sores for some time 2+ months. He is severely MR so he can't tell us any of his other symptoms. He is drooling excessively as a result. Poor baby. No diet changes, he is on a gluten/casein free diet. Dr. said it was a virus and eventually will go away. Could it be more than cold sores??? Any one else experience this??? We have restricted his citrus. Thanks! As always I am :bigear:
  20. have anyone used this course? I am considering it for my 13 yo next year. Please let me know pros/cons. Thanks in advance:bigear:
  21. My daughter has surgery tomorrow morning for similiar yet different issues - I understand the worry and waiting for results period. Your brother will be in my thoughts & prayers today. Blessings
  22. I am asking for prayers for my little 6 yo girl tomorrow. She is scheduled for a lung biopsy to determine once and for all if we are still dealing with cancer or something else. PLEASE PRAY FOR SOMETHING ELSE, I would LOVE this nightmare to be over. You can read her story at http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/ourbanana Blessings!!!!
