Tonight, I am definitely rambling. I hit so many subjects yesterday that I don't know what I left for today.
I'm pretty close to getting a $25 gift card to Wal-Mart or Barnes and Noble or Target or quite a few other stores. I earn points through an email program . . . if you want to know how, you'll have to either email me or post a comment. I rarely buy things from online, so I've done this with very little effort. It will be nice to get this so close to Christmas. Who knows, I may end up using it for a gift for my sweetie; I love to be able to bless him using money that he didn't have to earn.

I recently came across this neat website. Check it out: Sprint Waitless. It has some cute ideas on it. However, I do not recommend showing your teenage son the one on Turbo Parking unless you stress that it was done in a closed course by a stunt man.

Are you familiar with Homeschool Radio Shows? They have provided a free audio every week for a very long time. I've gotten some neat 'stories' from them.
They recently decided to offer a premium membership and give lots of things away free. I was blessed to get in as a charter member and it is a great deal. They offer at least one more free audio each week, and some extra freebies throughout the month. This month was awesome! I only hope they keep it up.
They call their site, Living Books for the Ears. This week's free audio is a 30 minute dramatization of Treasure Island originally broadcast on Family Theatre in 1952. I hope this is a blessing to you. I think it is nice to have something good to listen to at times.
The same people have another neat website for videos that he finds on the web. I'll have to post the url later because I'm having trouble finding it just now. I'm signed up for updates, so I don't have to remember the url . . . kinda like speed dial. (I found it... Great Homeschool Videos. )
Oh that reminds me of a funny story that happened recently. A friend of mine that moved away a little over a year ago, was going to be in town and had planned to come by for a short visit. As it turned out the first place they went to visit had invited everyone most of the people that they were going to visit with to one place. Problem was, they didn't know we existed. lol My friend did not have my phone number in her cell phone and didn't have it written down anywhere with her.
The next day, she ended up at the same church that my sister goes to. She told my sister what happened and how bad she felt. My sister said that she completely understood because she didn't even know my phone number because I am speed dial number 7 on her phones. LOL!
Well, I managed to find some things to talk about after all! I know you weren't worried, were you.
(Me and my dd, Tiffany on an easy to climb tree limb on vacation in VA in 2007.) These are my ramblings on homeschooling and whatever else comes to mind.
Counting Down
The Holidays are over and I'm not quite ready to start a new count down yet. Maybe I should start a counting up the number of days I've stayed on my "diet".
I rarely buy things from online, so I've done this with very little effort. It will be nice to get this so close to Christmas. Who knows, I may end up using it for a gift for my sweetie; I love to be able to bless him using money that he didn't have to earn.
