This post is definitely a little different from the typical here, but I had to share. Thanks to Kimberly @ Raising Olives, I discovered a really neat blog called Girly Do’s By Jenn.

It would be really great if Homeschool Blogger added the ability to schedule posts that would post automatically. Of course it’s not very …
I am always so inspired by homeschoolers who have made nature study a regular part of their education. Jimmie posts beautiful examples of their nature studies. The Handbook of Nature Study blog is the home of the outdoor challenges, which I keep thinking that someday I will do. I’ve decided that what I do with …
I’m working on getting all my kids’ outgrown fall and winter clothes ready to sell. I have been selling and shopping at this specific sale for 8 years now. (It’s called Weeruns and the sale owner is selling franchises if you’re looking for a home business.) There are so many things I appreciate about participating …
