• Jan. 22, 2008 - A Lot Going On...

I have been so busy that I haven't had time to post as much as I usually do.  I am hoping that my headaches will ease up this week.  I have been running on empty for about 2 weeks now.  I have been doing just the "basics" everyday which include: morning cleanup, homeschool, lunch, and dinner prep.  The rest of the time I am laying down with an ice pack hoping that my head will stop hurting. 

My son, David, is having such a hard time in Math.  We are doing first grade Singapore math.  It simply moves too fast, and even I have a hard time explaining some of the concepts that they go over.  If anyone knows of a simple beginning math program, PLEASE let me know about it.

It was so nice talking with you today! We need friends for love, support and encouragement! I think of the verse in Exodus where Moses was standing on the mountain and his friends helped to hold up his arms when he couldn't hold them any longer. We need each other. So glad to call you my friend!
Have a Great Day!

I will be praying for you..May the Lord give you strength to overcome and peace in the process.

As for the math..we used singapore math for 1st grade too..it moved way to fast my daughter hardly remembered anything..so than I switched to Horizons ..also moved way too fast. I then went with Saxon math..we absolutely LOVE it ..both the kids and I. It is very easy to teach and the concepts are reiterated again and again.

I am praying for you. I also suffer with severe headaches. I recently read about the benefits if Apple cider vinegar. It has to be the kind from the health food store though. I started taking 2 teaspoons in a glass of water 3 times a day and I haven't had a headache in 2 weeks. It's the only thing that ever helped. Plus it has a lot more benefits. You can google it and read all about it.

• Jan. 23, 2008 - So sorry

Posted by momachasity
I am so sorry you deal with this. I have done this in the past. It is terrible for you and I don't have any advice except to pray. Lately I have been repeating to myself, I am not a slave to food, I am not a slave to food, It has no power over me, I can do ALL things through Christ who gives me strength! God grant you the power!
