Things Ike taught me_*
Coffee and frozen pizzas can be made on a BBQ grill.
Hot pockets taste pretty good deep fried on the outdoor cooker!
My car gets 23.21675 miles per gallon, EXACTLY (you can ask the people
in line who helped me push it).
*He who has the biggest generator wins.*
There are a lot more stars in the sky than most people thought.
*TV is an addiction and the withdrawal symptoms are painful.*
A 7 lb bag of ice will chill 6-12 oz Budweiser's to a drinkable
temperature in 11 minutes, and still keep a 14 lb. turkey frozen for 8
more hours.
*There are a lot of dang trees around here.*
Flood plain drawings on some mortgage documents were seriously wrong..
*People will get into a line that has already formed without having any
idea what the line is for.*
Cell phones work when land lines are down, but only as long as the
battery remains charged.
Hampers were not made to contain such a volume.
If my store sold only ice, chainsaws, gas and generators...I'd be rich.
Waterfront property can quickly become someone else's fishing hole.
Tree service companies are underappreciated.
I learned what happens when you make fun of another states' blackout.
MATH 101: 30 days in month, minus 6 days without power equals 30% higher
electric bill ?????
*Drywall is a compound word, take away the 'dry' part and it's worthless.*
I can walk a lot farther than I thought.
A MUST for all blackouts with kids... GLOWSTICKS! Cheap, fun, no mess!
A skateboard and a sheet make a great "sailboat" before the rain starts.
It is a great time to teach the children the fine art of gambling (penny
ante poker).
You can never have too many gas cans!
*If you fill the bathtubs with water, the water will not go off.*
7 dogs that do not normally live together still do not get along during
a hurricane. They have no comprehension of sharing.
5 gallons of sweetened iced tea a day is not enough for 9 teenagers.
*Neighbors are much more sociable when they are sharing a generator.*
Two-year-old canned beets taste better than you'd think.
Just because it is dark and you are in the privacy of your bedroom
doesn't mean we can't hear what you are doing in there because our
windows are open too.
*What looks acceptable by candlelight in your bathroom will scare you
when you look at yourself in the mirror at the office.*
Coffee is possible without Starbucks.
*Rather than campfires, you find families huddled about tiny
battery-operated televisions to watch The Simpsons.*
Peanut butter and jelly is a perfectly acceptable meal for breakfast,
lunch and dinner in the same day.
*Don't shun those who use Tylenol PM or Advil PM to get through 11-hour
nights.*
*That neighbor who knows how to use a chainsaw is your new best friend.*
Ice is a form of currency.
It's OK to let the kids keep their stick fort until the debris-pickup
crews start rolling in.
Coming home from work with a pizza and a charged-up laptop so the kids
can watch a DVD makes you a hero.
You run out of things to barbecue after Day 2.
We don't want to hear rehashes of ball games we missed or be reminded
that we may miss the season premiere of Dexter at 8 p.m. Sunday on
Showtime.
Hair can dry without a blow dryer, but it may not look the way you planned.
The storm treasures your kids are finding really belong to your neighbors.
When George Noory's Coast to Coast AM returns to KTRH's late-night
lineup, we sleep better.
*Baseball caps go with any post-hurricane ensemble.*
*You can't train yourself not to flip on light switches when entering a
room.*
Lukewarm is the new cold.
You have neighbors.
It's easier to ignore a dirty floor when you can't see it.
*A new opening phrase when seeing someone: "Got lights yet?"*

Thinkg Ike Taught Me

Where have all the Homeschool radio shows gone?
Well, I was feeling bad, not having done a radio show in about a year, when I checked on the other shows. Seems podcasting was a big thing in 05 and has since deminished over the last several years. Was this a fad? Or was the hard work necessary for radio shows just too much for hard working homeschool Moms and Dads?
Yes, it does take someone with a producers hat to line up guests. It takes an editor 5 hours to edit a one hour interview. It takes a PR person to let everyone know that the radio show has a new entry.
For our show, I was the producer and host and pr person. My kids were the editors. They went to college and keep saying that I'm not allowed to edit the shows since I make the changes to abruptly.
But we had fun doing them, I have 10 more that need editing, and Yes, I really really would love to put this on REAL RADIO, but need sponsors.
I think that was the downfall of most homeschool radio shows. There was no money in it, it had to be your passion. Even the well ad supported shows have since gone numb. It just was not enough to hire an editor and pay for the audio server and the website server and take AAALLL that time from your kids.
If anyone knows of an Investment Angel who would like to see Homeschool Radio show, please have them contact me. I'm ready to continue and do this on the real airwaves (perhaps satellite radio!!)
I can dream.

Graduation
Today I would like to write something a bit more personal. May is the month of homeschool graduations and homeschool conferences. Last year, I graduated one of my children in a wonderful small homeschool ceremony with friends around us. This year, however, was something spectacular.
My daughter graduated from ORU in Tulsa. I must say that I have been to several college graduations, but ORU is the best. Our last graduation at ORU was 9 years ago when my oldest and her husband graduated together. And yet, the ceremony always surprises me.
At the hooding, the head of the department stood there for an hour to hug each student as they received their hood, which indicates their school, their degree, and their specialty. To see this woman hugging these students, giving small whispers as they pass, knowing each of these adults in their path to completion of their degree was awe inspiring. We talked with her later and she is truly a woman of inspiration to my daughter.
Today, we had all the pomp and circumstance as we stood while the deans filed into the auditorium, and then the professors in their various robes with indications of rank and specialty. Then as the graduates enter, they wave to family and friends in the auditorium. So the music stops, I stop talking to those around me and all of a sudden we are singing praises to the Lord. As in church, we sing rousing praise songs of thanksgiving and rejoicing as this is a day of celebration, a time to stop and say THANK YOU GOD FOR BRINGING US TO THIS POINT. Kleenexes abounded before it was over.
They were great to acknowledge that each degree was a group effort, by the students, the professors and the families who sacrificed and supported the student through the process. It was good to be acknowledged, but also to see at an auditorium of families who had also sacrificed to send their children to a Christian college.
And that is what I wanted to talk about. This graduation is different than others I have attended in that the Lord God was acknowledged and thanked and praised with every step, every song, every speech. The university teaches the whole man: body, soul and spirit. Dr. Cooper's institute is in charge of the PE program which is required of all the students. They are taught logic and thinking skills as well as developed emotionally as they meet deadlines and standards of excellence. Finally, with chapel and required foundational courses in Christianity, their spirits are taught and matured.
The speaker was inspiring, the procession was quick and well organized, and my little girl with the curly hair is now finished with her degree. And none of that would have happened without Jesus in our lives.

My Time on the Mountain
With an unplanned turn of events, I find myself on a mountain in northern Alabama with a family of 13 children. My gracious hostess, Vanessa, puts up with my incapacitated rehab state, all the while singing and smiling with her 12 of her 13 children round about her. One of the 13 is away in the Marines.
Although older and, I thought, wiser than this young mother of 13, I'm learning quiet a bit from this wonderful family. Having the 13 was a walk of faith for them and I do call her blessed. Instead of living in the city, her husband commutes an hour to Birmingham. The kids play in the field and woods, the view is spectacular and their home pleasant.
Listening to their story of how God brought them together, and then talked with them about giving Him control of their family instead of the normal family planning methods, it's awe inspiring. It was not easy, but God came through with raises with the birth of each child, with provision from the community and with blessings from places not expected.
This lifestyle really takes a bit of unselfishness. I have seen families who have hit their limit (their selfless limit) and the Mom can't handle it. Her level of selflessness is at an end and either the kids are farmed out, her appointments become more numerous as she finds *me* time or she turns it inward into resentment of the children. All variations can be detrimental to a family.
Also, many times a father's faith in God's provision will give up before hitting more than 3 kids. Instead of handing over the provision of the family to the Father of us all, a dad tries to carry the burden, works more hours, resulting in less time with the kids and general unrest among the family. Working harder does not insure success as noted in Proverbs, if God is not blessing you. Learning to hand over the reigns in our life is the most important constant lesson in all our stages of growth.
To go forth and multiply really is a walk of faith and selflessness from both parents. To pour yourself into children, day in and day out, without the breaks that even teachers with 20 kids obtain over the weekends, can be taxing. But knowing where your source lays, and returning to that source each day to be refilled is the only way to continue pouring yourself out to your children, whether you have 3 or 13.
From this family of 13, I see builders, medical people, artists, soldiers, debaters, lawyers, actors, athletes, and other great talents. Will anyone outside this mountain know what work Vanessa did day in and day out as she tended her garden of children? I hope so.

Why is Jube at a Motorcycle Rally?
I know that some of you are asking * what is Jube doing at a motorcycle rally?* Well, to give you some history, my dh was a guy on a motorcycle when I met him (look up Jim Croce to get a pic of him in his youth) and we traveled across America in our early years. He gave up his motorcycle when we had our first born.
Our church in the 80s was one of the first to support a motorcycle ministry called Tribe of Judah. Did you notice (for those of you old enough) that the motorcycle gang stories of the 60s and 70s kind of died down in the 80s. (ask your parents if you're not old enough ;-)
Well, that's because there was a great outreach by many *scandalous* ministries to the people that no one else considered *church folks*.
We were at one of the first motorcycle rallies back in the early 90s with our kids in diapers in a tent with all the Christian motorcycle gangs. Very interesting weekend.
So we went to this year's motorcycle rally to talk to people about homeschooling. We encouraged those who were already homeschooling. We talked to people who were thinking of homeschooling. We were blessed by homeschool magazine publishers with freebies for everyone so we had some concrete advice for them to take home.
We watched as church folks (lots of ministers were there) looked at our booth and kept walking. We talked with inked and pierced Moms and Dads who were thinking about homeschooling. And we had a great time.
The one thing I found were homeschoolers who had not yet connected with groups in the DFW area. It's a shame that communication between groups are not more open. I long for the time when groups will post their adult meetings on the community calendars of every paper in Texas so newcomers can find them. Not everyone uses the computer like I do ;-)
So that's how we spent our Labor Day weekend. Enjoying music, kettle corn, people, and getting rained on, lol. Hope you had a great Labor Day also. Oh, the guy at my cleaners knows of a BMW Trike that's for sale, he's working a deal for me!

Keeping Dry in Hurricane Season
Well, I'm up early because of the rain. Watching the radar on tv and on the computer. It's 300 miles away, yet my back yard is ponding. Yep, it's hurricane season in Texas again. They are already sounding the alarms for the next hurricane which is still a week out. Too bad North Texas can't get rain without us being soaked here on the coast.
I do hope that homeschoolers in Texas know that having emergency drills, preparing your evac kits, and/or learning to can and dry foods are all valid classes for your homeschool. Learning to use walkie talkies, how to cell phone everyone, deciding on which papers are important for an evac, these are all great life skills that every Texan needs to know.
I love geting our supplies ready. We just stocked up on cans of chili and ravioli, our staples when the electricity is out. We are blessed with a gas stove so we can cook during any outages, although we have to revert to using matches to start the thing.
And of course, our trusty dusty grill bit the dust this year so we have a new one ready to grill the contents of our freezer if need be. I remember Alicia many years ago, we just took our fridge contents, grilled everything we could and invited everyone in the neighborhood for a bbq. Hey, they were tired of pbj's and appreciated the real food.
So with any other weather season in Texas --- Y'all stay safe out there!

NOT Back to School
Well, it's that time again. It's time NOT to go back to school. We do enjoy the sales, the new paper and markers, but we soo much more enjoy not going back to school. With the THSC State Conference in The Woodlands this coming weekend, we look forward to reviewing new curriculum, going to workshops for new ideas and old techniques we've forgotten about.
The teens will enjoy their workshops which are done by Dave Ramsey's people. Yep every parent wants their kids to know good financial principles. We don't want them moving back in if it's avoidable. :-)
If you are new to homeschooling, please feel free to check out the website http://www.texashomeeducators.com/ for great lesson plans, support group information and calendar of events for great activities throughout the state.

Dr. Phil can't be a Texan!
Well, after a great thanksgiving with the family, we have Dr. Phil's show to watch tomorrow. I can't believe this guy is a Texan the way he ambushed the homeschoolers. We will be talking about this on our radio show next week: The Homeschooler Next Door streaming on Drama Free Radio station. I don't think any of the main media are willing to go head to head with Dr. Phil, but this homeschool MOM is not taking this lying down.
We have heard from other blogs about how the audience was stacked, the guests were ambushed and how the whole thing was just a show to make homeschooling look bad.
Here are the blogs with that information:

http://localhs.com/scuttle/2006/11/great-unschool-attack.asp
http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/spunkyhomeschool
This on the same week that it was announced that one of the Rhodes Scholars from Texas is a homeschooler! Hence my assumption that Dr. Phil is not really a Texan, where people believe in individual freedom and responsiblity, such as the responsiblity to educate your children.
Anyway, we will go over Dr. Phil's show point by point on this next week's The Homeschooler Next Door!

On the Road Again
Well, we have been on the road for 10 days now. We hit Iowa just as a northern did and voila, it was 50 degrees. I love being on the road with my kids. It's a great time to remind them of each state's slogan, ask about the geography of the places we travel through, and of course, discuss things endlesslyl. They enjoy and annoy each other in various degrees along the way. But overall we have fun.
They were great during the conference, setting up the booth 3 different times. Very patient for teens. We had fun with the relatives and were glad to hear of their faith. Nice knowing they will be with us in the forever and ever.
We loved the mountains of West Virgina, took some great pictures, but was very tired after hours of curves. We thoroughly enjoyed the gentle mountains of North Carolina but were glad to hit I-10 for that final stretch back to Texas!

Spring Freak Out
Well, it's almost the end of the school year, and on all the homeschool lists there is that Spring Freak Out that comes with the end of the standard school year. *Did we do enough??!!!* We did not finish the book! As though the teachers ever finish the book.
Here's the secret: the teachers never finish the book. I was sooo disappointed when my daughter was kept in school for the finish of her 6th grade year while I had already pulled out my other child. She was in accelerated classes and I knew I could not teach her that math. So we kept her in until the finish of the school year. Well, she mentioned as the school year was ending, that the teacher was just flying through the last part of the book. None of the kids were catching any of it, and the teacher was not going to test them on it. She just needed to get it covered because it was in her lesson plans. Great teaching, huh?
So if you tend to FREAK OUT, during this time of year.
have a picnic,
take the kids to the zoo.
read a good book.
TALK WITH THE KIDS.
They learn so much for just talking. Hey, it was the mode of learning for several millenium!
If you kids know more now than they did last fall,
if they are still interested in learning,
if they read books without you telling them,
if they research things and THEN tell you what they found,
you can be rest assured you've done enough.
Until later,
Blessings,
Jube

Just thinking Out Loud
Wow, we've been homeschooling for 16 years. It was just yesterday that I was exploring this new educational decision. We were having problems with one child in school. There are just so many counseling sessions you can have with the teachers before you realize, they don't have a clue about your child. So we pulled her on Valentines day, went skating with a homeschool group, and have not looked back.
The changes in homeschooling is amazing, especially among the Moms. We would research for months, talk to others if we could find them. And then, if they trusted us newbies, we'd get invited to a meeting. From there we would find out about the conferences, and maybe find a couple of catalogs so we could start buying things for our homeschool.
Forward to the 21st Century, and voila, you can find everything online. You can find a support group, bookstores just for homeschoolers, conference information, curriculum providers of every spheel.
What you don't find is the wisdom to know how to pick curriculum. Or the wisdom to know what is plain *Twaddle* and a waste of your time and your child's time.
More on all of this latter.
