Have you heard the one about the homeschooling family that lives on less than $22K a year in an area that costs above 100% (116%) of the National CoL Index?
I haven't quite figured out why so many people still persist in perpetuating the myth that living on a single income and homeschooling on a dime aren't possible. I can only suppose these are people who can't imagine life without a daily trip to Starbucks and dinner out several times a week. The people who actually shop at malls (*shudder*) and think "Brand Name = Best". The people who really live by the "Keeping up with the Joneses" mentality.
That? Would not be us!
Welcome to our world. We cook from scratch. Buy from thrift stores. Find 95% of our homeschool materials for free. This is my blog and this is how we do it.

Hi! I just wanted to say I'm so glad I found your site! How you found all the free curriculum is beyond me, but the resources you posted are wonderful. Thanks so much for sharing those, and some of your budgeting strategies too. I'm a homeschool mom of five and we can use all the help we can get! :)
Hello! I'm constantly on the look-out for free sources. My "bookmarks" folder is enormous! My usual pattern is to start searching for one thing, find some links I like, follow links from those pages to other pages, and the next thing I know it's been two hours and I have two dozen new sites to explore further. :)
