Ibbygirl Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 Homeschooling as a Home Decorating Choice Okay, I'm with you, but how did you manage it?? I confess I've tried it myself, but I couldn't get the kids to stay still up on the wall. How did you overcome that problem?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mom4him Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Organic foods--how do we start eating healthier? Plant yourselves in unpolluted, fertile ground, and suck up those nutrients. Sorry, I had to answer for them because organic foods cannot talk -- or at the very least, they don't speak English.

The escalator races were so much fun. . .but I learned there's truth to the ole' adage "it's all fun and games until someone gets hurt". Needless to say that when Kate got her skirt stuck and went rolling down backwards it took some of the fun out of it. So in summary. . .Tina 1, Kate 0.

*~Tina~* Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Decorators please help It's wonderful that your decorators were able to please the help. What were they negotiating for? Mine wanted extenders for the Swiffer dusters and the furniture arranged so that the hot spots were more accessible. I was fine with that, but then they started to insist on Lazy-Boy recliiners and a bigger tv. I thought that was crossing the line. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*~Tina~* Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 (edited) Sooooo FRUSTRATED with FRACTIONS!!!! According to the scale, you've selected the following rating: sooooo - five "o's" - skin is flushed, smoke from ears, boiling blood about to burst into flames upset I don't know. Just seems like an extreme amount of energy to invest in fractions. Perhaps if you divide your frustration into thirds, we could get you down to a much calmer. . . soo - two "o's" - sufficiently upset Just a thought! :D Edited April 4, 2011 by *~Tina~* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*~Tina~* Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 What made you change your mind? Well to be honest, I had every intention of getting a plain ole' cheese pizza, but I do really like pineapple and ham pizza so I began to second guess myself. Then the zing of pepperoni and jalepeno started to sound tasty. . .and about that time sausage crept into my thoughts. It was all so darn confusing. Too many choices, yep, that what's made me change my mind. TOO MANY CHOICES. Sigh. . . :auto: I'm getting a burger instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
