So
cute, Edie had a boyfriend come over (a friend that's a boy - don't
want this all over the Perez Hilton type sites) and he brought her
flowers... awwww! His mom and I had lots of note swapping to do. She
too has decided to homeschool her boy this year on a Kindergarten
level. I was nursing Kale to sleep last night and realized that every
single mom that I consider a friend out here is homeschooling. And
there's a lot. And not for the lack of schools around here. There's a
public school smack dab in the middle of town and a real cool
alternative school spearheaded by hippies in the seventies that has
recently relocated downtown too. There's so many reasons to homeschool,
for our family anyway, I just find it interesting that all these
families discovered similar reasons on their own as well. So if anyone
has experience with Live Education please let me know! That's the
course we're heading toward. At least for two years of Kindergarten
anyway. After that we're leaning toward Christopherus; both of these
are Waldorf-based. So much to learn! Luckily, learning's fun. Or should
be. Thus, homeschooling (then unschooling later on - mwah,ha, ha).
And finally, I hopped back on the wheel again. Must come up with a name for the spinning wheel - how do you spell Kway-lood? Quaalude apparently (just googled). It relaxes me so. I decided to come up with a line celebrating the opening of the second shop. The yarn above is part of my Jupiter Dreams space series. And now for the Black-Eyed Kathies bit of the post title- Ay Karumba! Yesterday I sold four items in the While Jupiter Dreams shop! Things are a bit different over there in that when I sell something I have to then make it. Which is cool. I get off on the rush. But I'm hopping now, excited about the fall plans and fun challenges ahead.
