You should never feel crazy about that :) I know so many who lack it :( I wish you the best with everything. You have a great deal of ambition.

Congrats on starting school again! I grew up on a college campus and now my hubby and I both work at a college and opted to live a block away. One we reason we did so is the wealth of cultural opportunities for our kids. Look for concerts, poetry readings, coffee house open mic, sporting events, art exhibits, etc. There might be a planetarium with programs, foreign films, tours of greenhouse facilities to be had. Use the library or the fitness facility. We take our homeschoolers to the rec almost nightly for a little PE. Good luck and have great fun!! Hey! Congrats on starting school again!

I'm like, um, well, we're doing stuff. She apparently wanted to know how much time we're spending every day on school work. I'd say some days, we spend very little and other days, we spend a lot, but really, we're working from the always learning principle and keeping track of what he's expected to know at the end of each year. With those benchmarks in mind, we just proceed. Right now, he wants to learn about rabbits, penguins, and plants. Okay, so that's what we're doing in science right now :). I guess I"m more unschooling than I thought. But what we love is that we were able to attend a doctor's appointment at 9:20a for his sister without having to worry about where he needed to be because he could just be with us.
