  1. Would love your hits to help plan co-op activities for grades 3-6. Thank you!!
  2. Yes! I'm seeing critical thinking, layers to history, and challenging, open-ended discussion questions. The activities are great (just enough, not too many, meaningful, supply list included), and the optional core connections that makes it a multi subject unit are good. While it's not rigorous, the content is fabulous. I think if we did at least 7-10 or so rather than just a few during the school year, I would be happy with the amount of learning and growing that would result.
  3. I was planning on trying unit studies from various publishers to see what we like and dislike. After purchasing, printing, and looking through our first Campfire unit, I'm fairly certain we've found what we're looking for and then some.
  4. Would you share the uncensored group name? We're looking into GR for this school year.
  5. Better Than Sex. The name is a bit much, but it is pretty amazing. It was recommended by a sales associate at Ulta, and it's all I use now. I have it in regular and waterproof. I get it at Ulta in the trial sizes.
  6. Meal plan. I plan 6 meals weekly: chicken, pork, beef, Asian, Mexican, Pizza. Sunday is potluck. No dressers. Clothes in closets. Shirts and pants hung up. I don't fold anything really but towels, I think. Washcloths get thrown in a basket in the linen closet. I don't fold underwear either. All of my guys wear the same size socks now. I buy a boatload of Costco socks, one winter and one summer kind, wash, dry, put them in a large laundry basket on top the dryer for people to grab when needed. Edit: I do not have laundry days but mostly each day wash all of the laundry from the day before. Exception is delicates. I wait til there's a load to do.
  7. No, not right now. There are some obstacles to this. Maybe in the future.
  8. Yes, thank you. I won't be using my pay for bills or anything. Saving generally for now or possibly for Christian school tuition for the kids. At least for the high schoolers. I'm putting my work availability from 2 pm on for now. Weekends are more flexible. DH works from home and can do the afternoon, evening shift
  9. I applied for a job today. I haven't worked outside the home in 20 years. I haven't known what to say. DH seems to have taken to heart the counsel and has stopped the abusive language. He's really never had people call him in stuff and seems to be responding. I just don't know what to make if it and am just waiting and watching. There's still the narcissism though and mental illness and it sucks and is hard. It's really hard to be in a relationship with someone who is incapable. Hopefully working will give me space and a break from the crazy and then I can go from there with what I want and am able to do. Did I say it's hard? It's exhausting.
  10. Just visited our Del Taco today, and they have a sign saying they are only open from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. now. I asked about it in the Drive-Thru and they said they can't get any workers. It's really sad for the businesses who were struggling due to covid and now continue to struggle due to covid relief checks. 😞
  11. We were there until 12:30 last night and I was up with a puking kid the night before. I'm so very tired, physically and emotionally. It went really well. They showed a lot of love, care, and support for our family, yet didn't tiptoe around things that were harming our family. His abusive behavior to us was confronted but not his delusions/mental health. I'm still processing it all. Too tired to think about a next step right now, but I feel safe as I consider it.
  12. Thank you. I changed it.
  13. We just moved and I have no idea where documents are. I have a car. Will work on gathering stuff just in case. I really don't know what to expect tonight. This could go many ways. Edit: I really do not think my husband would physically hurt us though.
  14. We do not have guns. Thank you.
