Can somebody help me? My husband can transfer to ATL and I am thinking about this as a possibility. How are the homeschool laws? And how affordable is it to live about an hour away from the airport? I don't even know which direction to go.

I use a Victorio Food Strainer for applesauce and jellies. There is a new model out as the old one went out of production 10 years ago. It is great. Basically the same idea but the crank does all the work.

I received one from my daughter and I said that I wanted a stylus. She said that it needed the heat from my finger and that it didn't even work with gloves. Maybe the stylus above is a bit heated, so it will work.

I have a few bedwetters. My 8yog is on a nasal medication that works very well. If we wean her off it, she will go back into her pattern of wetting. My 7yos also uses the same medication, at half dose. He doesn't have as much trouble as his sister. My 5yob was a wetter, but he has had no incidents since starting Hyland's Bedwetting tablets. The alarm is for sleep disorders, not hormonal deficiencies that lead to bedwetting. I have a Malem for sale if you want to go in that direction.

It is a single user license. It keeps track of progress so there really isn't a way to use it on more than one as it will mess up skill progress. I have 3 licenses and we haven't logged on in months.

Things can come in with your food, like wheat berries.

There is a homeschool group that you can join for $50 and the basic package comes free with that membership. That being said, I joined and I haven't used the subscription AT ALL.

What was the warranty? I thought that the Bosch had a lifetime on electronics and perhaps, a 5 year in general.

Jason has a detangling shampoo and conditioner. Kiss My Face has a detangling spray. http://www.kissmyface.com/kidsproductpages/detanglerkids.html

The economy hasn't affected what I buy as much as how I buy. I have tended to go toward a simplier lifestyle and I am really pushing towards a decluttered life. I am purging all of my "This would be great to use!" curricula and sticking with what I've planned. If I don't use it, it doesn't need to take up the valuable space in my house.

Well, I just ordered it so count me as one who just added to their Christmas list. My kids have been asking for a globe anyway, so this will work out well for them. Thanks for the heads up.

I just tried this recipe and it made a wonderful loaf of bread. I used my Bosch and it worked beautifully so I will try my Zo tomorrow and see what happens. :thumbup:

I hadn't made a decent loaf of bread in over 6 months. Then it dawned on me that I was now buying yeast from Costco. It was active dry and I had always used SAF yeast, which is instant. I ordered from eBay as most online stores wanted to ship a bag of yeast via UPS($$). It was here in a couple of days and now my bread finally has rise. I never really found a good sandwich bread. My family can't wait for bread to come out of the oven so that they can eat it hot. But as for sandwiches, I'm no help.

My kids play with them. Last year I got a custom and I had her do Superman capes, but with their initials rather than the S. They still love those.

We use rechargeables but this year we are going for 2 charging stations. They were $21 each at Costco. Then maybe they will stop stealing the batteries out of all my remotes.

I just bought myself these: http://padraigcottage.com/detail.aspx?ID=16 I like that they are machine washable. If you are wanting a moccasin, LLBean would be the way to go.

You missed one of the best parts... FREE TUITION :001_smile: I have one MBI graduate and one who is in Chicago now after doing one year in Spokane. They both LOVE it.

We just bought one from Costco for $59. My daughter didn't want to get tied to iTunes, so hopefully this will fit the bill.

Our urologist suggested putting an egg timer in the bathroom. Urination hinges upon relaxation and often times kids will run in and out as fast as they can. Make her sit for 3 minutes (in order to relax). This may do the trick.

I have bedwetters so I brought my 7yog, 6yob and 4yob to the urologist. He wasn't all that thorough with my daughter and was a little more investigative on my 4yob, but that is to be expected with testes and hernias and the such. My guy was fine, though. But my 6yob saw this and there was NO WAY anyone was touching him. I was more insistent but the doctor was fine with no examination. So, I think that your doctor crossed the line. You need to follow this through.

Usually my kids cry when we do have to do something. This time she cried because we had just done SOTW the day before and she wanted to do the next chapter. So we did it anyway. And then her older brother wrote on her coloring page, which prompted her to cry again. I had to give her a new coloring page. And then her 5 year old brother wanted to color William the Silent again because his sister got to. Kids! :D

Go down and take the Analyzing and Interpreting Literature CLEP. You'll be graduated within 2 hours.

I am running out the door right now to go buy one. :auto:

I've paid for 3 sets of braces so far. One had one phase. Another had two phases. We have insurance that covers $2500. With the one phase, we had like a $800 down payment, and like a $150 a month for 18 months. The two phase had a smaller downpayment and payments for 10 months. Then we had 6 months off and did it again, although the second half was cheaper than the first half. It is late in the year. Can you put money in a flexible spending account for next year? It will be pre-tax dollars. Plus, you can pay for the braces early in the year, and the FSA will still be deducting all year long, so basically you can give yourself the loan.
