Opportunity Knocks......

It's been a very interesting week. I have a new opportunity knocking on my door. As some of you know I've starting taking custom orders for my crochet projects, and I have my first couple of orders. It's absolutely amazing. Once I get some clipart for my website and get my things in the store, I'm hoping I will have so many custom orders my head will spin. It's good to be successful at something. And while I have much to do with home schooling and teaching and caring for the kids and trying like hell to keep up on the house. So, among all that stuff, with the hubby being promoted to Warrant Officer, I now qualify for MyCAA. I never thought I would. I've requested transcripts again and submitted paperwork. I have a few more questions for the MyCAA people that aren't answered in their FAQ and as soon as I put those to rest, I just have to decide if I'm really going to use it. And if I'm going to do it, am I going to follow through? I'm really bad at follow through. If I start this program, I want to do it and get through it and finish it this time. The time for starting school and stopping and starting again, I'm just too old for that at this point.

On the other hand. I starting using a different book for Killian's reading. I'm using Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons. Killian is doing really well with it. I would very much like to find a good program to use for speech therapy since Tricare does not cover it. So far one that intrests me the most is very expensive. I know it's just because he is not forming the letters or blends together properly, he can hear it but he can't seem to imitate it, or I can't help him imitate it properly. I kind of feel that is a reflection on my teaching abilities. He has grown out of a lot of his speech issues, but the ones that are lingering still make him difficult to understand at times. I don't know if he would be any better if he was in public school though. I mean, he is just in Kindergarten. I just don't know how much time it should take and everything, I don't want him to have an permanent speech problems.

Anyway.
