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.
Today in History Link.
This is kinda cool - a little something you and your kids could read each day for a mini-history lesson. It's the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS - TODAY IN HISTORY PAGE. Not only does it give details of various events, but it also includes links so you can read further through other LOC documents and pictures. You never know what might grab your child's interest and spark a whole new history exploration!Labels: curriculum chatter
