iMac Attack

A long time ago, 2005 actually, I had a thought – *I hate my PC!*.  Yes, it was a very strong thought – and one that had to be acted upon.  So I did!  I let the kids use the PC and I purchased an iMac G5.  This little honey has been sitting

High School Is a Bit Different Now

My children – up until this year – have been enrolled in the normal public school system. James is a senior (leaving to serve our great country as a Marine in June 2009), and the other is Stephen a junior in high school. That’s 11th and 12th grade students in a public NORMAL California high school. That is the number one issue – public school.

I personally cringe when one of my children stubs even a small toe.

To see our children in pain feels like an unjust thrust upon us from the Universe.

We
