Home For Him


August 5, 2009

Still Crickets

Posted in School Room

It is apparent that God wants us in a drought right now. And that's okay. The kids are trudging through the remainder of school lessons from this last "school year" and I'm working on the outlook for next year, which is due to start the week after Labor Day. Even with our new yahoogroup up AND the friends we made in the writing class, we still appear to be "out of touch" with homeschooers in this area. I'm wondering if there are any here at all. 

 

Across the lake and river, groups are booming with activity and communication. I just don't get it. In greater New Orleans and St. Bernard Parish however, we get crickets. LOL I did get a phone call last week from a gal who lives here in Chalmette. She's homeschooled for 11 years and has a 13yo and a 9yo. She said that since Katrina, that's the way it's been. And she doesn't like it either....always having to travel across town or the lake to be with other hsrs.

 

Sincerely,

Puzzled
