Oct. 18, 2006 - Low-Tech Mama

The more I manuever around this site and visit more blogs the more amazed I am.  Not only are there scads of clever writers but the graphics are wow.  I most definately feel my total 'untechi-ness'.

 

Top Ten Ways To Know That You Are A Low-Tech Homeschooler -

 

1.  You still think handwriting is an important subject.

2.  You only have a cassette player in your car.

3.  You aren't quite sure what an MP3 is.

4.  You don't own an i-pod and wouldn't know how to use it if you did.

5.   You call your hubby everytime you need to use the scanner.

6.   You have a full digital camera and don't know how to unload it.

7.   You still look forward to the mailman coming.

8.   You didn't know what an Avatar was and had your 12 yo son change it for you.

9.   You've NEVER played Chip.

10.  You just laughed at 3 or more of these b/c you know you're one too.

 

 

Today was pleasantly rainy :)  I really enjoy days where I have nowhere to go and we can mess the house up and not stress about it b/c there's time to clean later.  And if school runs into the late afternoon, it's ok.  That's been happening alot more lately since baby #6 arrived.  I keep wondering if we're still taking on too many subjects or if I'm just slacking.  Probably both.

 

I heard and saw on the news that it is snowing in much of the North US.  My family in CO was getting alot -  I will try not to pout.  It was 80  here but felt like 85 according to the Weather Channel.  Blah.

 

You know, incidentally, I love watching the weather channel.  Even on the computer.  There is just something about watching weather patterns and knowing the temperature in Portland that makes you feel smart.

 

My three youngest are coming down with colds.  Double blah.  And my dh is supposed to be preaching tomorrow night.  Well, he can bring me home the DVD to watch.  If I can figure out how to work the DVD player 

 

Until later ~ (or sooner depending on how you look at it)
