She's beautiful! :001_smile:

Been there, done that, got the "Not A Real Homeschooler" label. Oh, I love this! :lol::lol::lol:

Well, my latest purchase at IKEA totaled $20... ...because I didn't go and gave my friend a list. :tongue_smilie: She spent over $450... :willy_nilly:

Thanks for posting this! My Shaun The Sheep obsessed daughter will love this. :001_smile:

:iagree: He works hard long hours to provide for us. He handles finances. He does any car and house repair/maintenance and yard work. He is my support/venting place/shoulder to cry on. He plays board games with kids (which I don't like). He does projects with kids that involve use of logic, troubleshooting, repair or building. I do all the teaching, shopping, housekeeping, cooking, driving around for activities and socializing. I still think that I'm getting a good deal. :D

*snort* :D I was wondering if you have a "No Soliciting" sign too.

Thank you! :)

:iagree:We love to play a few very intense air hockey games (with the winner doing Snoopy dance too :D)

Computer is off until all schoolwork, chores and errands are done. Then binge during the weekend. :tongue_smilie:

Rent an inflatable water slide if your budget allows it. These things are so much fun!

Sounds like something my kids would love to read. Thanks for posting this!

It's good to hear from you, PP! I missed your posts. :001_smile:

I see a cute VW Bug in our neighborhood with a mustache sticker in the front. It's pretty funny. :001_smile:

Alton Brown's Pan Bagnat. :D For dessert - fruit salsa and cinnamon tortilla chips.

I'm so sorry for your loss. :grouphug::grouphug::grouphug:

I'm sorry. :grouphug:

Julie, :grouphug::grouphug::grouphug:. I don't know anything about farming, but I know someone very close to us who had his own, very successful construction business. I remember him saying that working for somebody else would be like a death for him. A few years later they lost everything. He took a job in a different field, works for a big company and he is happy. He said that it's a tremendous relief to not to worry where the next job will come from, not to deal with his workers etc. It was a very hard process for their family, but they learned to trust the Lord in everything and He has provided in abundance.
