My posts the earlier part of the year were all about our many off days. The best advice I got was to relax a bit in my expectations. The other thing I learned was to make sure that we had a really good breakfast....I know this sounds simplistic, but I have found it to be very important. Lately, I have had some frustrating days, but many great ones....though it took months. Hang in there, trust yourself, don't worry about what's going on at public school, give out plenty of hugs. I have really worked at turning learning into an adventure again, which is what I wanted when I started HSing.
