Okay, so there are a few moments that you miss as a homeschooling family. I homeschooled my oldest girl for three years... but she had a year of kindergarten first. I enjoyed homeschooling, but once I became a single mom I couldn't work AND homeschool. In the end, she turned out well... I have more confiden

Reply to Forgiveness is Divine in Misc JoeUser Forums

I'll pray for you. Maybe it will help to remember that unforgiveness really hurts us more than the person who's wronged us. They probably don't give a crap if you forgive them or not... but dwelling on the negative thoughts and feelings will breed bitterness and resentment in your heart, and who wants to live like that? Forgiving isn't necessarily forgetting the past ("those who forget the past are doomed to repeat it"), but it is sincerely wishing the

Mike Brown, Head of FEMA, Resigns in Politics JoeUser Forums

Just three days after being shipped back to Washington and relieved of his duties with hurricane Katrina, Mike Brown resigns as Chief of FEMA stating that it was "in the best interest of the agency and best interest of the president". I seriously believe if he hadn't resigned of his own accord, he'd have been fired eventually. It was inevitable, and in the best intere

I love Kindergarten! in Home & Family JoeUser Forums

That's it. The last of my children has entered the world of academia (ok, if you consider coloring and being read to academia). People have been asking me questions all week: Did he cry? Did YOU cry? How does it make you feel to have your baby go off to school? How does Noah like school? 1. He didn't cry. He found his friend Mia and the two of them have been

Reply to Not how I remembered in Misc JoeUser Forums

Hmmmmmmm... never tried them, and sure am not anxious to do so now... ! I used to love chicken livers. Is that a southern thing? I'm from NH, but I think it was when living in VA that this became part of my diet. Anyway, I probably would still love the taste of them, but each time I even THINK about buying them, my wonderful husband feels the need to point out just what it is the li

Reply to Raising Cain in Writing JoeUser Forums

But another thought.....remember that verse in I John 3:12 which you mentioned above but did not quote? Well it says there that Cain "slew" his brother.....well the word "slew" we learned from our Pastor when he did the sermon series on this book is "sphazo" in Greek which basically means to cut one's throat. Remember? I'm thinki

Reply to Raising Cain in Writing JoeUser Forums

Hebrew 12:24 which says, "And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than that of Abel." I still stand with my original position. This is speaking about the blood of Abel, not the blood of his sacrifice. *jumping off the merry-go

You can put "Brandie" on a resume and it won't matter what they think looking at it, because as soon as you open your mouth, or they read your letter of application, they will realize just what an intelligent, eloquent, charming, well-spoken woman you are... and then they'd thank their lucky stars (if they're into that witchy stuff...(kidding) LOL) that YOU found THEM. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/JU/smiles/Smile.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absmiddle"

Reply to Dharma has a meltdown in Misc JoeUser Forums

(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((K))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) Glad it helped ya feel better. So long as it's your own stuff you're breaking, I say go for it. Had an ex who broke stuff... but MY stuff. He'd get angry with me (generally unjustifiably so) and then proceed to take whatever he thought I considered precious and demolish it. Nice guy, that.
