Even Heathen Mom gets a Summer Vacation
I decided to take the month of June off again this year when it comes to my online activities. It seems like June is just an insane month for my family schedule-wise so deciding to put my online activities on hold for a few weeks made sense. I loved having time with my ...
Ready or not – Summer is here!
During this time of year everyone loves to declare – NO MORE SCHOOL! I will freely admit that when I worked in the public schools, “School’s Out” (by Alice Cooper) was played shortly after I lovingly waved goodbye to the kiddos on busses for the last time of the school year. You know the song….feel ...
Dear Heathen Mom,
I am so glad to see the weather beginning to get nicer. I have had a terrible time the last few weeks with a sinus infection. I generally don’t get sick except for kidney issues, so this has been rough. Why can’t mom call in sick? Really should have read the fine print ...

Just Another Manic Monday
I took the plunge and returned to graduate school this semester. I am working on my second Masters degree and will continue until I complete my PhD. I personally think I have lost my mind, lol. Right now I feel like an insecure student who is questioning her own abilities. I know I ...
2+2=4
Several days ago, I participated in an online homeschooling event. This event was hosted by a website and included speakers on a variety of homeschooling topics via streaming audio. There was a chatroom for listeners to be able to chat to each other and type questions for the host and speaker. I am not ...
Heathen Ramblings
Oh my how time has flown the last few days. Note to self - don't plan on taking that many days away from my online life again, lol. I'm still weeding through emails. So today's post is a look inside the ramblings of me, Heathen Mom. Maybe someone else can make sense out of the ...
The Joys of Testing
If you are a twitter follower you know that I spent my morning supervising standardized testing for our homeschool group. This is a service that is offered by the parent support group of our larger organization. It is made available to all homeschooling families in our area. Several families who are too far away to ...
