I'm starting a new club! Want to join??

I've read several entries by other moms who are in somewhat the same state I am as we face a new school year. Just a feeling that can only be described as completely underwhelming.  Been there-done that-got the tshirt AND could write the curriculum. We've seen it all and possibly tried it all. Our goals have changed from what they were when we first started--right now as we get close to (or maybe already have) launching children from the nest, we realize that anything we 'missed' scholastically speaking, they can make up later. That raising good kids who love God, are good citizens, are fairly literate and who have a good work ethic would be the ultimate 'success' story.  When young homeschool moms at our support group meetings dissect curriculum and tout the latest and greatest, we smile, sit back quietly and sip our coffee and (try to) bite our tongues.

I think the only qualifications to be in my new club will be that:

 1) you agree that coffee and chocolate could quite possibly cure all the world's ills if only people would give them a chance (yes, yes,I know that has absolutely nothing to do with homeschooling)

and

2) that you too have wondered if perhaps Dilbert or Calvin and Hobbes could count as 'vocabulary' study

 After re-reading the above...I realize I might be this club by myself. I'm sure the rest of you are WAY more responsible than that! 

If nothing else, check this to get a little lift with some 'homeschool humor'.  Then, you might just be ready to do some lesson planning!
