\"\"<\/a>Chodesh Tov!<\/p>\n

For those that were waiting, the 2012 Torah Home Education Conference videos are now available to purchase. \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

They can be purchased off of Mind Bites<\/a>.\u00a0 There was a wide range of topics, from Financial Literacy in Your Homeschooling, to teaching Bar\/Bas Mitzvah and Beyond, to Technology in the Home (**I like this one, hint hint \ud83d\ude09 **)\u00a0 They can all be purchased individually for $2.97 with each talk being about 40 minutes long.\u00a0 You can also purchase the entire series for $19.80 by clicking on the link for “Series” with over 7 hours of enjoyable listening time!\u00a0 The audio and video quality of the talks I have watched or sampled have been very good.<\/p>\n

I was hoping to post this last night, however, there was just so much to do, and I did not feel that I even got half of it done! Not that I didn’t do anything, it was just that life happens sometimes, and with children life happens often ;), as well as regular stuff to deal with. I think the only thing on the list that I got done (and one could argue it was the most important thing to do last night,) was calling to say hi to my 91 year old grandfather, who not only answered the phone before the answering machine (he screens his calls from telemarketers), told me he was happy to hear about the conference and the fact that we learned a lot from it, asked me a lot of questions about our homeschooling and was very impressed with that and other things – all within the course of the 10min 52sec phone call – which might actually be a record for him!<\/p>\n

One big bonus of homeschooling is that I have learned to be more organized.\u00a0 Don’t get me wrong, I still have a LOOONG way to go, but I am sure a lot further along than I was when we started!\u00a0 I have learned that I need to prepare my Yom Tov meals several days in advance so I know what I need in the house, and not the night before.\u00a0\u00a0 Now I am happy that I was only able to do a partial shopping on Sunday, for that means I can actually make things that I would like to have because there is still money left for the week to buy stuff!\u00a0 There is positive in everything.<\/p>\n

I’m going to finish up today, short and sweet.\u00a0 Tuesdays are a short day, which will allow me to finish up my Shavuos plans.\u00a0 Right now I know that we’re eating pizza and ice cream at shul on Sunday, and IY”H we will be making homemade ice cream, yum!\u00a0 I guess that is the important part, right? \ud83d\ude09\u00a0 Wishing everyone a wonderful Yom Tov (and Shabbos) this weekend!<\/p>\n
