Controversies arising
There are so many controversies arising around parenting and schools and motherhood these days. It’s hard to keep up. The whole in person versus distance learning is one that is fairly easy to talk about without pissing off too many people so I guess I could mention again how little my kids are in theContinue reading “Controversies arising”
COVID’s effects
The biggest topic up for debate in our town right now is getting these kids back into the classroom. We have been on distance learning since March 2020.

Computers that are good for internet surfing
I’m borrowing my son’s computer to work on today. My parents bought the kids new computers for distance learning this year when I found out the school wouldn’t have them available until October. We had two older Chromebook style computers that are good for internet surfing but we needed to beef up their processing speedsContinue reading “Computers that are good for internet surfing”
