<span style="color: white; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>As I sit in the dark (the family are all still snug in the bed) reviewing our budget (over & over again because I am OCD that way), the sun starts to rise and I suddenly hear a bird outside my window whistling a beautiful song........ </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: white; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><i>I have been stressing over several things this morning.... but the early morning song bird puts my mind at ease and reminds me there are others things in life than stress..... </i></span></div>

As excited as I am for our launch day to be close(r), I find myself over thinking about what I want to share with everyone and if it will be relevant to them... or me in the long run for that matter...... </span><br />
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-size: large;">1 month & 6 days until we launch... that is what my tracker app says... it also says, 21 hours, 37 mins, 27, 26, 25, 24..... seconds... and counting.... </span><br />
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-size: large;">I am a week away from quitting my job of over 8 years.... My long dedication to this job has been such that I am having severe quitters guilt.... I have wanted to tell them before now but feared they would not accept my months notice so I have been patiently waiting for the 2 week mark... If everything goes as planned, I will turn in my notice on December 2 with December 16th being my last day of work...... I will be offering my services on a part-time basis should they wish to accept it. I would love to stay on as their database person at least until someone else can get trained to take it over... but if they choose not to accept it, it is totally ok with me. </span><br />
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-size: large;">Evan is ready to load up and head out NOW..... however, we did agree to stay around for the holidays..... We have had several family members having one hell of a time health wise so we really want to take the last half of December and spend with them as well as the rest of the family.... </span><br />
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #eeeeee;">Our plans to head west have altered a bit... we will head south on December 31st towards Silverhill, AL and will be staying at </span><a href="http://www.waleswest.com/" target="_blank"><i><span style="color: white;">Wales </span><span style="color: white;">West RV Resort & Light Railway</span></i></a><span style="color: #eeeeee;"><i> </i>for 2 weeks of rest and relaxation on the Gulf Coast. I am so excited about this that I just can't stand it.... </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #eeeeee;">Then we head to<i><u> </u></i></span><a href="http://www.gajellystone.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: white;"><i>Jellystone GA</i></span></a><span style="color: #666666;"> </span><span style="color: #eeeeee;">for several months so I can workamp.... Workamping, if you are not familiar, is where one works for a campground in exchange for the camp site.... several reasons we decided to go this route.... 1. By workamping, I gain some experience that will help us if we ever have to workamp to make ends meet while on the road. And I think having experience at a Yogi Bear Park will be a great asset...... 2. There is a baby due in our family around June 2014 and by staying close we will be able to be around when its born. 3. Who would not want to camp at a Yogi Bear Park? 4. This will allow us to save more money for our adventures...... </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://www.gajellystone.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: white;">Jellystone GA</span></a><span style="color: #eeeeee;"> is not far from Atlanta so we will be close to my parents (both sets), Six Flags, GA Aquarium, Coke Factory, Stone Mountain, etc..... Places we would love to visit.... And only 3.5 hours from home so we can visit.... </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-size: large;">So we are excited..... And nervous..... But ready.... </span><br />

<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Had it not been for trading cars & having to put a down payment on Nido along with some bills popping up unexpectedly, we may have already set "sail" on our Westward Adventure.... </span><br />
<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We are happy we made this decision but itching to hit the road... The kids have adjusted well and Homeschooling Jackson began on August 19th. </span><br />

<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Although our struggles (not just the repairs - the stress of my full-time job, kid illnesses, unexpected finances) have been major to us, those who have been on the road may think they are minor and I am sure in the long run we will think the same. But for now we have viewed some of these as stumbling blocks until we realized that all we have to do is step over them and move on. </span></div>

<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Wow what a crazy month June was.... We successfully moved into The Nest and have settled in finally!!! The first 2 weeks were almost torture but we survived.</span><br />
<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The rain in SC (and elsewhere I'm sure) has been horrendous. Seriously, I think we were on the verge of floating away at times.</span><br />
<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Week 1 of our full timing in the RV was terrible because we were not 100% level and because it was raining so much, we got water in the rig. Carpet was soaked and we were frustrated.</span><br />
<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Also thanks to so much rain and the soft ground we couldn't level up for a few days. So we endured the wetness, used the heck out of the de-humidifier and whined..... A ton of whining. At least from me.....</span><br />

<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">.........and then came the heat (it joined the rain) and our rear A/C decided to act up. And to be honest, we have not had it fixed yet but have been able to overcome the issue. The rear A/C for whatever reason, builds up condensation when it runs and then it decides to drip water on the bed and it usually happens around 2 or 3 AM!! So to combat the issue for now, we do not run it but for a little bit at a time like when we are ready to sleep at night or for those lucky naps we sometimes get. Then off it goes and to help circulate the air we have a couple of small fans..... It works. For now. I'm sure we will have to get the A/C looked at but for now we are content. (Without going into a long detailed story.... we tried to have it serviced but it was going to cost an arm & a leg just for a service call, so just held off)</span><br />

The separation anxiety & culture shock of everything hit me..... I am still working my full time job and by moving I am having to learn a new territory. Constantly being unsure where I am and being a slave to my GPS tore my nerves up.... Now when we go on the road, I will welcome being lost & trying to find new places & following my GPS but with work, it was killing me... Luckily I was able to deal with it all and now we are loving life....</span><br />

<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-size: large;">Evan gets tickled at me cause I am also excited over the fact that Luigi's color matches The Nest and we will be color coordinated on the road... </span></div>

<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-size: large;">I have to say that we NEEDED this Boat when we purchased it. We carried 7 people around for several years... Us 2, 4 kids and my MIL. But since we are moving only 4 of us are going therefore we were able to minimize to Luigi! And we LOVE HIM! </span></div>

<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-size: large;">Luigi is awesome on fuel... we drove him 334 miles before filling up this weekend. 33 miles to a gallon. How flipping cool is that???<br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-size: large;">Since we are moving in 4 days - YES 4 DAYS - to Columbia for 7 months, we are planning to drive back to the Upstate, every other weekend for family dinners. So Luigi will totally be worth the purchase in fuel alone. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-size: large;">We experienced a rough weekend with the hard rain that came through our area. In fact we had a leak! A LEAK! Scared me to death. All I thought about was the floor rotting and falling thru and us not having a place to live out our dreams..... After much head scratching, searching for locations of the leak and consulting on the "nomadic do it yourself" facebook page we concluded the partnering of the rain, open slide and the fact we were not level allowed for water to get in the rig and soak our carpet.... </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-size: large;">The water was in the carpet in the middle of the hall AND in front of the bench seat in this picture. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #f3f3f3; font-size: large;">I was scared to death but once we decide the issue, we re-leveled the rig and sucked the water out of the carpet with a carpet cleaner.... now the carpets are dry (And clean since we cleaned all the other carpet with the cleaner) and I am once again HAPPY! </span></div>

I have feared telling them of our plans. I just knew they would want to kill us but this past weekend went surprisingly well. There was no gasping, yelling, crying or anything.... Now there also was no jumping up & down and celebrating either but that is totally ok with me.... The fact they did not get upset is a milestone for me and I now have less stress........ </span><br />
<span style="color: white; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: white; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Now we have time to focus on what we need to do to get ourselves in the rig in Columbia and closer to our goal of hitting the road. </span><br />
<span style="color: white; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: white; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">This past weekend was also our 1st and ONLY Yard Sale..... I say only because I HATE yard sales.... Since we are storing our furniture then our yard sale was to get rid of JUNK... and we did get some gone... We made a little money that we promptly blew through but that is totally ok.... </span><br />
<span style="color: white; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="color: white; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">We had quite a bit of stuff left over. A facebook friend had mentioned her church had a clothing closet so I contacted her to see if they wanted our left over clothes. She came to pick them up and we loaded her mini van slam full of just clothes. It made me happy to know these clothes were going towards a good cause of helping families in need..... All our other "junk" was loaded up and hauled to Goodwill. </span><br />
<span style="color: white; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: white; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I still have a crap load of stuff to get rid of but I will Freecycle them and/or head to Goodwill again and again and again.... </span><br />
<span style="color: white; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: white; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">After notification of our plans to our family was announced, I felt so much better and relieved. It was telling them that was holding me back from actually completing projects. Now that is over with, we can move forward. </span><br />

<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 13.5pt;">What a difference a week makes.... We have
only completed a little more purging (we have TONS left to do), I have gone
over & over our budget trying to ensure there are no flaws (I remember
things to add almost every minute and it is driving me nuts), we have thought
and thought about how we will be able to do this and that and get this and
that...... but yesterday things seem to iron out a bit more and our idea
of becoming adventurers started to come together for us. </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 13.5pt;"><br />
Our goal for our adventure is to move into our rig in June 2013 and live in it
until January 2014. In January, our plan is to hit the road and go where ever
Evan has mapped for us. (And boy oh boy has he been mapping it out - Ha-Ha)</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 13.5pt;"><br />
We both have been trying to find a campground in the area to move to for the 7
months we plan to live in the rig (June until December). The campgrounds around
here<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><u>have not</u><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>been "blowing our socks off"
& some are absolutely not worth even driving through let alone
living in for us. </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 13.5pt;"><br />
Yesterday, it was as if the stars aligned correctly and I suppose we were
holding our tongues just right because we were able to locate an incredible
campground with an awesome monthly rate of $315 + electric. It is a
Yogi Bear Jellystone Park. I am so EXCITED! </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Last year we visited the <span style="background-color: #fff2cc;"><a href="http://jellystonemarion.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: windowtext;">Jellystone
Park in Marion NC</span></a> </span>and were totally smitten with them. The Jellystone Park in Marion, NC has a pool & water
slide but we did not try them out while we were there. We had so much fun with
all the other stuff that going to the pool & water slide just did not get
on our agenda..... </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 13.5pt;">Normally these parks are seasonal (the
Marion, NC is one of them) but the one we have booked for June - December is
open year around. It has all the amenities we were wanting: Fishing,
Pool, Nature Trails AND activities for the kids EVERY weekend..... </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Jellystone Park @ River Bottom Farms</span></a> </span> You really need to
check out the Events page where they show the theme for each weekend. J-Man and
E-Diva are going to have so much fun... as am Evan & I. (We have
never been to this location before and next week I will be in town for work so
I will be going by to check it out. We feel comfortable enough with booking
this location because it is a Jellystone Park and they are required to have
high standards which is a plus in my book. I will take pictures when I visit
and post)</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

By the way, this campground is in another city than where we live now so it
will be a totally new adventure for us being in a new area as well as living in
the rig. We are familiar with Columbia, SC but we do not venture there often
due to the distance. Columbia is the capital of South Carolina and has so much
to to for family's and kids such as...... <span style="background-color: #fff2cc;"> <a href="http://www.riverbanks.org/" target="_blank"><span style="color: windowtext;">Riverbanks Zoo</span></a></span>, <a href="http://www.edventure.org/" target="_blank"><span style="color: windowtext;">Edventure</span></a></span>, <span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 13.5pt;"><span style="color: windowtext;"><a href="http://www.scmuseum.org/" style="background-color: #fff2cc;" target="_blank">South Carolina State Museum</a></span></span>, <span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 13.5pt;"><span style="background-color: #fff2cc;"><span style="color: windowtext;"><a href="http://www.columbiamuseum.org/" target="_blank">Columbia Museum of Art</a></span>,</span> there is even a
FaceBook page <span style="background-color: #fff2cc;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/365columbia" target="_blank"><span style="color: windowtext;">365 Things
To Do in Columbia</span></a>.</span>... We will not (SHOULD not) be bored at any given
time when we move here..... </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 13.5pt;"><br />
The idea behind living in a campground until we hit the road is for us to save
money for our trip & complete some upgrades to the rig (Possibly adding
solar & getting all the towing equipment for a toad) By moving into
this campground, Evan & the kids will be entertained (pool, fishing,
walking trails, as well as going into town for the Zoo, children's museum,
etc... during the week) while I am working and we will be saving ALL of my
salary EACH month and living off of Evan's income. (Currently I live 1.5
hours from my company's main office, when we move here, I will be 30 minutes
away - So I will have more opportunities to work with the big wigs as
well in my last few months) </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 13.5pt;"><br />
When we settle at River Bottom Farms, we will no longer have to pay for home
phone/internet at $60 a month (we will use our cell phones & wifi is
included at campground), satellite at $70 a month (we will be
using netflix & red box streaming at about $9 a month a piece along with
our antenna for local channels), water bill $30 a month (included
with site), yard maintenance $90 a month during grass cutting season (included
with site), trash pick up at $20 a month (dumpster on site), renters insurance
at $40 a month, a $300 a month electric bill (we are estimating around $100 a
month if that when we move), or a $900 a month rent payment.... yes ALL of
those will be GONE and or reduced tons..... (Just in rent alone we are
saving $600 a month.) I have our budget all planned out and as we move
forward in to this saga, I will post about the differences in the old and new
budgets as they evolve but just with what I have listed above we are NOW paying
$1510 a month and when we move we will be paying $433 a month. A grand savings
right off the bat of $1077 a month. Amazing!!! </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 13.5pt;"><br />
For now we are focused on purging our stuff, having our yard sale, getting the
things we will be storing to my mother-in-laws house (Yay, no storage fee to
add to my budget) and within 2 months moving to Yogi Bear's park..... Oh
my, we have LESS THAN 2 MONTHS....... Eeeeeeeek! </span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">My motivation to purge is almost non-existent.... It comes and goes... We are set in our minds to live this life on the road, yet we are still stuck in the rut of this sticks & bricks house..... </span></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Work, eat, sleep, kids to school, youngest kid taken care of, older kids back & forth..... Work, eat, sleep, yadda yadda yadda...... </span></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I have accomplished several closets. There is a stack of junk to sell at a yard-sale .. I ABHOR yard-sales .. Love to go to them, HATE HATE HATE to have them..... </span></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">My life would be so much simpler if someone would just offer me a lump sum of a decent amount to come get this junk and carry it off for me.... </span></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">As we purge our lives (does that sound dramatic enough?), we (actually just ME) are hit with some thoughts.... </span></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Doubts enter now:</span></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><br /></span>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">What if we cannot make it work on the road? </span></li>
<li><span style="color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">What happens if we run out of money?</span></li>
<li><span style="color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">What do we do it our rig breaks down?</span></li>
<li><span style="color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">How to we handle medical issues?</span></li>
<li><span style="color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Will the kids be able to adjust?</span></li>
<li><span style="color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">How will the kids have friends?</span></li>
<li><span style="color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Our family is going to KILL US! </span></li>
</ul>
<span style="color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The focus is on purging for now.... I still have tons of work to do and I have issues to deal with... Like...</span><br />
<span style="color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I do not want to sell our brand new living room furniture or our wonderful brand new king size bed for fear we decide this is not for us and when we return home we have NOTHING..... </span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I shouldn't have the thought of failing & I should not be thinking this may not working, but I am the practical one and I want something to come home too if we come home........ </span></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">My mother-in-law is allowing us to store stuff at her house... so we are luckily in the fact that I will be able to keep my bed, living room furniture, and some other items that MUST BE KEPT.... </span></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Now reality kicks in, we have 2 months to rid our junk, get our saved stuff to MIL's and all I can think is how the hell are we going to get all this done???? </span></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">My brain is a mess..... </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10981355569243975143noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8721711729831071374.post-78287407005930731972013-03-30T07:01:00.001-04:002013-04-17T08:18:31.156-04:00Homeschooling Prep is Confusing...... Wait, scratch that....... <span style="color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">So, in prepping for our launch, we are researching different Homeschooling options for J-Man. We want to begin homeschooling him in the fall so when we hit the road in January, we have a schedule in place and his schooling is underway......</span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I never knew that preparing for homeschooling would be such a headache for us. Maybe I am making it out to be more difficult than it truly is but goodness, I cannot seem to wrap my head around all the do's and don'ts of the process.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">We have spoken with K12 and like the "free" part of the program but because this program is government driven, then we would have to have J-Man back in the Spring to physically take tests. The whole idea of going on the road is to be out and about without the requirements of having to come back at required times.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">When we research the other options, I find that for the State of SC, we HAVE to sign up with a Homeschool Association. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"></span></span><br />

<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I sat in the parking lot of a local bookstore yesterday and typed the above. They were not open yet and I had the above on my mind so I typed away....... </span></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The bookstore is a Homeschool Bookstore. It was awesome as were the people inside and as the above mentions I was getting a headache from researching all this homeschool stuff.... I now know I am able to do it with the help of Sandy at <a href="http://www.homeschooldiscountproducts.com/servlet/StoreFront" target="_blank">Welcome to Lifelong Learning Resources and Children's Books Inc.</a> Thank you Sandy! </span></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I have the information now to join a local Homeschool Association which is not going to cost an arm and a leg. I also, know we have to choose a curriculum for our application process and I feel much more comfortable moving forward. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><span style="font-size: large;">“Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving.”</span> ― <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/1654.Terry_Pratchett">Terry Pratchett</a>, <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/work/quotes/2889659">A Hat Full of Sky</a></span></blockquote>
