Jul. 21, 2008 It's almost time!
I'm curious as to how this school year will turn out for my young lady. My heart goes out to her, she has such a struggle with the 'traditional' way of schooling, and because of that it seems like i have limited us unknowingly.
We are going to do it all differently this year. I just pray, all i can do is pray, i want her to succeed so badly, and i want her to grow creatively, not live inside the mundane box the world provides for us. I want her spirit to grow and her to find her great purpose in life. I pray for her to find it this year. |

This is one reason i like homeschooling; i like to learn, and i like learning with my daughter, it's fun!! (even though sometimes very challenging)
The one reason i don't like to homeschool is because i have to work an 8hr day Monday thru Friday, and my teenager has to work alone most of the day.
Lately i have found it to be encouraging for her (and i) to be able to take her to the public library on my lunch hr and drop her off picking her up when i get off work - she can do reference work, have casual reading time, and work online for a small frame of time. She also gets to interact with other people.
I'm very proud of my teenager, she presses on regardless of the situation. |

I'm trying to make a transition in the way i eat and live these days, from the 'regular' diet to a 'raw' foods diet. 85% raw/15% cooked. Cutting meat out seems to be difficult, but i think i can slide by with fish every once in a great while. I love eggs, not sure what i'll do with that.
I have been doing a bit of research, reading, listening, and observing, and i do believe it's the best way to health, along with good old fashioned excercise. Yes, you hear correctly, excercise.
I think this is probably the greatest missing link to health i have these days, because i am kept so busy at work, doing house chores, and helping my daughter to stay focused on school work. In the spring, summer, and fall, i don't seem to do too bad, but when the day hours begin to shorten, i don't seem to be able to keep up any outdoor activity.
The thing i like to do the most is walk and run in short spurts. I do like bike riding too, and i go to the beach, but the beach is sort of a 'lazy' thing cuz all i like to do there is read and sit in my beach chair listening to and watching the ocean. It's very relaxing.
Right now i seem to have fallen prey to some virus, having a big cold! Yuk. Wanna know where i believe i picked it up? Sure, the doctors office no less. Going in for a physical - coming home sick! Something just doesn't seem right about that. I suppose it's my own fault, maybe i should have used my own pen, and just stood up while waiting. I don't know. Hopefully i won't be going back to the doctors office. I really haven't been to the doctors office in years, and i haven't been sick either. hahaha.
Well....
Here's to great health !!!! |
