Just checking in with your thread. 

It does feel good to clear out closets and cabinets, doesn't it?

Hope you take Cold Eez or whatever brand you have there, and feel better quickly.

Thank you, Lighter :)

Clearing out is good, it's funny how stuff accumulates even when you try not to let it!  I'm moving furniture around as well, giving things a good clean - the place always feels better afterwards!  Am dosed up on cold an flu stuff, my boy is poorly as well so we're having a quiet week at home this week :)  How are things going with the home schooling?

Tupp:

Everything's fine with the home schooling.  We had a lovely week traveling to our old neighborhood, and visiting our familiar little private school with all our bestest friends.

My children attended classes, while keeping up with their home school plan, and it was wonderful. 

We really miss that community, and will likely go back for Halloween!  Whoo hoo!  Again in December.  It's uplifting, and keeps us feeling connected.  Honestly, I wish we'd been doing more of it.

Home school also makes it possible to stay on top of the legal matters, without creating crisis, and my mother's illness as she needs assistance. The one thing we're still working on is school work while on the road.  I can't drive, and direct the children at the same time.  It was a wonderful thought, but it's not really a reality. Perhaps, when the children lose an opportunity they would have otherwise enjoyed, they'll figure that piece out?

That's my school update.

I have to say I admire your perserverence with regard to doing what you can to protect vulnerable children from your sf.  The rest is taking care of old business, so you can put it away for good.  Hopefully very soon.  At least that's my hope for us both ((((Tupp.))))

I'm glad it's all going well, Lighter.  I think a lot of people find their kids are able to direct themselves without intervention more and more, so you might find you don't need to worry about them working on the road, they'll figure it out on their own.  I think it's really important to have thinking time, and time to just be as well, and road trips are a good way to get that.

Tupp:  You know..... I think you're right about not being all "MUSH! MUSH!" about school, all the time.  Truth be told, we're pretty well on schedule.  I think I'm feeling OK mainly when we're working ahead, in anticipation of another crisis.  That isn't working as well for the kids.
 
It's just not possible to control everything.......

 and is likely harming our school experience so.......

::breathing deeply::

Thanks for the advice: )
