I tried doing a reply with quote to Rose's question about Noah's Ark and never could get it to let me type so I just read through and decided to reply here at the bottom to everything I could remember, which isn't much. LOL!
Noah's Ark is in Locust Grove, about a 20-30 minute drive from me. I've never been there but we are planning a field trip in April. Everyone who has told me about it loved it. I'm not sure though, with little ones still in car seats if I'd want to drive that far. I'll ask around and see what I can find out about taking kids that small. I know they love it but with the driving and all added into the mix, you may want to wait. I do know they have a picnic pavilion so you can take a lunch. It's also not far from the Tanger Outlet down here. hee hee!
Stacey, I sent you a pm but almost couldn't because it tried the same trick about not letting me type. Anyway, it has my info. One of the best pieces of advice I can give is to check out
www.hslda.org for the Homeschool Laws in the states you'll be living in.
Congrats on the move to Hawaii. The only thing I really remember hearing from others who have lived there was that it's more expensive. Go figure. I'd like to hide in a suitcase myself and spend some time there.
The girls have been sharing my Sis-in-Laws "creeping crud" as I call it. A horrible virus with a bad cough and all. They've now shared it with me only I've also run fever with it. So, I'll be seeing the doctor Wednesday morning. They said I could come in today but I'd have to sit and wait to be worked in. I have better things to do with my time - like stay in my bed and try to feel better. LOL!
It's great to see so many posting again.
Mouse, I'm sorry about the death. I pray you have safe travels.
I am so tired, I can't remember what everyone else posted about.
Oh, Joyce, I'll try to find time to gather some books to send your way. I'll let you know when I actually get around to doing that. LOL! It's been crazy here since Christmas.
Skylar got her pump hooked up on January 18th. We've done well but having trouble following all the little rules they really wanted us to for the first couple of weeks. It would help to set her drip rates but she had the crud and didn't eat well, etc. We go back on the 16th for them to do a little more training for stuff like Pizza and pasta which tend to peak later than the insulin because of the protein and fat in it. We'll learn to do a wave bolus or something like that. We do all this at the Emory Children's Center.
The brownies and lemonade were good. However, with the cold, I'd like some hot chocolate please.
Well, I better head to bed. Need to get up and out the door tomorrow sort of early for me.
