Hi Everyone
I know it's been a long while since I last wrote. So much going on. As much as I would like to write about my growing up years I thought it would be better to write about school. My website www.10greatways-2stopatruck-hottips-for-coolfamilies.com is going to have a page about school. Time is getting closer you know. Many families are down on home school they say it isn't good for social development. That may be true of many but not all and it isn't right to kill an idea because it doesn't work work for some. If our kids needs social skills then it is up to us parents to do something to provide it. I have many ideas for get togethers, supervised by parents that would work beautifully. My daughter goes to an internet school. They provide the computer, printer etc and pay for the internet bill. It is a public charter school but they also have a private school sector. By now many internet schools must be around but I have her enrolled in CAVA and I love it. She has a great teacher and they also provide extra tutoring in all subjects so she is never left on her own when she gets stuck. I have developed a relationship with enough parents so that she can have a healthy social school environment even though its home school. Check it out I believe the address is www.cava.org. Since my website touches on trucking families and getting an education while on the road I will be posting more information on it. Unfortunately I don't have the link set up from this side so you'll have to type in the address the good old fashioned way until I have more time to set it up. (Oh my God I did it. It is embarrassing to see how easy it is to link to my web site. Well live and learn.)I will have the website part set up by the 1st week of August. But until then if cava.org doesn't work try www.caliva.org.
More Growing Up Puerto Rican
I promised a while back that I would give you a little information about each of my sisters a little at a time. So by the time I did start my stories they might make more sense. So sister number 2 I'll call "I don't know" (idk) simple because I really can't come up with something right now. She never liked being the second in command but that was life there was someone else already born. She has her own little world of making crafts and telling her stories, cooking and keeping herself busy. But if I have to share with you one thing about her its this: She really wanted to be the oldest one and back in the good old days when "Planet of the Apes" came out we went to the drive in to see it. Boy we were excited. Well idk insisted on telling the girl at the ticket booth who all was in the care. My parents.....2 adults. I had just started the 9th grade and we were having a fight in the back seat about who was more mature or whatever. The 3 younger.....3 kids. She cuts in real fast and says 4 kids to bug me of course. Then she says about herself and 1 "Senior Citizen" Because she is in a senior high school now. The lady in the booth asks well where is she and she just can't see her. The lady hangs outside the booth and practically crawls inside our car. She says "I just don't see her where is she?" idk says well its me I'm in.....the lady starts laughing. She says "No dear senior citizen is an older person in their 60's" God it was funny. Now its funny to think of how dumb we all were but back then it felt good to see idk turn deep red. But that's my family........fighting...not fighting.....back and forth all our lives. She dated a mercenary so my mom's virginity story didn't fly with idk like it did with Elvira...sorry idk and your husband & kids. But they knew already.............I hope.
