Do you serve your homemade bread with a pitchfork?

So here we are...day 2, week 2 of school. I homeschool my kids and I work outside the home part time. I'm not on medication, but I'm sure I should be. As it is, I live on Rockstar Rehab, Monster Lo carb and Diet Coke to get through the days. Melatonin and Sleepy Time Tea are the go-tos to try to turn off the ol' brain at night. Yeah, it doesn't work. It just perpetuates a vicious cycle. But, hey, I could be strung out on diet pills and valium, so I digress. I use online classes mixed with book work and I actually teach some lessons. The days I am working we talk about he lessons they did that day and anything they are not "getting" we cover on days I'm not working. It's not perfect, but it works for us. Yes, I am stressed. Yes, I wonder if I am giving them the best education. Yes, I want to quit work everyday. Unfortunately, the mail carrier doesn't want to quit delivering bills to my house. I am amazed at the groups online with these super mom...
