The purpose of this daily blog is to aggregate news and opinion regarding the particular struggles faced by single, homeschooling families. As a divorced, homeschooling father of three beautiful children ages 13, 10, and 4, I wanted a place where I could bring like minded people together to discuss this challenging life we have all chosen for ourselves and our families. While I love to rant about these things, I really want this to be a community. So, agree? Disagree? Post away! Enjoy.

Thanksgiving

Well tomorrow's the big day. Stacy, my ex, is coming over for Thanksgiving dinner. This will be our first set of holidays since the divorce. Katie, my ten year old, is pretty stressed about it all. I was worried we weren't going to be able to do any of the holidays all together, but in the end, we were able to work things out in a way Stacy was comfortable with. I really think it's best this way, especially for this first set. There are so many first times involved with divorce. At least this way, some of the trauma is minimized I think.

Hanging out with Stacy is an interesting experience. When the kids are with us, it's almost like we are friends. Other times we can't seem to fathom how we ever got along well enough to get married.

Well happy Thanksgiving to all. I hope everyone reading this has someone they love they are spending the day with.

Yes, no wonder she's stressed- two perverted freaks in one room WOULD tend to stress a kid out, dontcha think? Molesting assholes, the pair of you.
