I have a schedule thats sorta like Sagira's one. I split up the BFSU book and I am doing roughly 2 lessons a month. I figure this way I will split the lessons over 3 years or more. I also am working on nature studies with my elementary kids, so I count that as a science as well.

I truly hope that my son does the same thing in a few weeks. Be glad your DD is doing so well! -
They do take 17-20 years or so to mature. It seems like a long long time! But thats the point. This chart shows the maturity time, depending on when the bond was bought: http://www.treasurydirect.gov/indiv/research/indepth/ebonds/res_e_bonds_eeratesandterms.htm And yes, they continue to gain interest up to 30 years after they were issued.

Yard sales and pricing
REv1053 replied to RainbowSprinkles's topic in General Education Discussion Board
If I am trekking to your house, hoping that you have the right size clothing, for the right gender, and the right season, I expect it to be cheap. $.50 a piece. Though I will pay a bit more if its an expensive brand and in outfits. -
iPad vs. laptop (Apple or otherwise)?
REv1053 replied to Sue G in PA's topic in General Education Discussion Board
I would vote for a laptop. I prefer the laptop to the iPad for typing on things. Even with a keyboard, I cant imagine the iPad being better at note taking and word processing then a laptop is. I love the iPad for surfing online, checking email, watching videos, and the apps. I love my laptop if I actually want to write things down, or do any sort of real computing. I thought I could do my school planning on the iPad but I have found that I am much faster and more efficient on the laptop. -

Meh. Its not really surprising. I wonder if she will convert to a different religion now. -
I would skip Ebay and list on Craigslist.

My father (living in poverty at an orphanage) actually is the recipient of these boxes in Thailand. He has said the children LOVE the boxes and they are well received. The boxes are a huge hit and the kids get so excited. Our family doesnt put together the boxes because we dont believe in the missionary stance with the organization, but they are well received in Thailand where they are needed.

Anyone else doing K and high school? Just curious.

What is your favorite tea?
REv1053 replied to justLisa's topic in General Education Discussion Board
I absolutely LOVE the licorice spice. Mmmmm Though DH says it tastes like Jägermeister. But then there is more for me.... I'll have to try the Meyer Lemon. Thanks! -
I'm feeling in the mood to de-clutter
REv1053 replied to HollyDay's topic in General Education Discussion Board
I am currently working on the yard. I have a collection of tricycles, bikes, scooters, skateboards.... I am filling up the back of the van and making trips to the thrift store. I love decluttering. Though I should probably do it a LOT more often. -
Motivated Moms owner not doing well

I tell prospective renters that only small pets are allowed with a $300 non-refundable pet deposit. I am picky though. Pets do pee on carpets, and once they start peeing they don't stop. It gets into the floor boards and it's really really hard to get that smell out. If it is YOUR house that you are renting and it's not a permanent rental I would NOT allow pets. No way.

When does your 14 yo...
REv1053 replied to rutamattatt's topic in General Education Discussion Board
Most nights my 14yo goes to bed between 9 and 10pm. Though he hasn't been getting up by 7am the last few days, so I am going to encourage him to get to sleep earlier. Some nights I am absolutely sleeping before he is. It doesn't bother me. -

Help us identify our chicken!
REv1053 replied to wy_kid_wrangler04's topic in General Education Discussion Board
I bet its an Easter Egg chicken... Araucana or Ameraucana, or some mixed breed. My Easter Egg chicks looked similar for a little while. I dont think the comb is large at all. I would definitely like to see a pic when its full grown! I think its cute. :D -
