Love your blog...we can relate very much.

I did want to add that right now, if you want and are interested; there is a giveaway going on for college students (hosted by other "student blogs") and they're giving away a 1700.00 computer prize package from HP.
It's over at: (http://studentbloggers.org/)
Thought it might be helpful. I'm not affiliated with them nor am I getting paid to do this, I just thought I'd get the word out to all students because this won't last long :)
Cheers, Barb

I'm asking a few college students this question.

At homeschoolonline.org, I've posted the question:

Any thoughts on the homeschooling movement from the point of view of today's college students?

Do the kids who were homeschooled appear to be different than the public, parochial, or private school kids? Better prepared academically? More or less prepared for the college social scene? More or less mature?

A Baggy Buddy from www.baggybuddy.com addresses the need for an easy way to get all those plastic bags full of groceries home. They're convenient, easy to use, and inexpensive.
