Musings about our unschooling lives. Saturday, August 28, 2010. My blogging bores me. If it bores me it probably bores you even more.

Musings about our unschooling lives. Thursday, September 09, 2010. Can I just say, I LOVE FALL! I'm loving the cooler temperatures and dryer air. The trees are starting to turn colors! Here are a couple of photos from the last part of this summer:. We came home from a bonfire gone bust (thick clouds of swarming mosquitoes put an end to s'mores before we even got started) and this little fellow, a tree frog? Was hanging onto our garage door as we pulled in. Grass ( Andropogon gerardii.). Zoe posing next t...

Musings about our unschooling lives. Monday, September 20, 2010. Zoe's interest in skincare and makeup lead her to discover Michelle Phan's Youtube channel. Michelle presents homemade skincare recipes and makeup techniques that have a great appeal to young women. She's very sweet and gives practical advice. We've tried her gelatin and milk pore strips (Rick tried it too! I found some great videos on Videojug.com. Demonstrating how to make sushi rice and roll sushi rolls.

The Unzone: I'm that mom...
http://zamunzo.blogspot.com/2010/07/im-that-mom.html
Musings about our unschooling lives. Tuesday, July 27, 2010. For Ronnie's blog carnival. Inspired by Flo's blog post. Children decide when to stop nursing. Who co-slept with her babies - toddlers - children until they wanted to sleep alone. Who wouldn't take her child back to that swimming teacher that made him cry even though the lessons were non-refundable. Who makes mistakes, realizes them, and asks for her children's forgiveness. Who plays video games with her kids. Who speaks with her children hones...

The Unzone: Abundance Begets Generosity
http://zamunzo.blogspot.com/2010/06/abundance-begets-generosity.html
Musings about our unschooling lives. Monday, June 07, 2010. This morning Zoe came to me and asked me how much money I'd spent on the few items she'd given her 'fairy godchild' at the conference as well as her father's birthday gifts. She had her purse in her hand and she wanted to reimburse me. Zoe accepted my reasoning and then suggested that she might like to spend her money on something for herself, perhaps the new Sims 3 expansion, ' Ambitions. I forgot to pick it up on my way home. While we were wal...

http://zamunzo.blogspot.com/2010/09/resources.html
Musings about our unschooling lives. Thursday, September 16, 2010. Some more resources I've stumbled across lately:. Is a great resource especially during U.S. election periods and for those interested in the history and current operations of the U.S. government. Has free primary source materials. Here's an interesting Vignette about the U.S. Constitution. I was looking for tutorials and helpful websites about machinima. I haven't downloaded it yet so if you do, let me know what you think of it.

The Unzone: Bullet Point Update
http://zamunzo.blogspot.com/2011/05/bullet-point-update.html
Musings about our unschooling lives. Thursday, May 26, 2011. Zach returned home from London a week after his 20th birthday! He's home but busy with friends and we don't see him much. Rick canoed on the Jacks Forks river in southern Missouri - about a week before terrible storms swept across the region! Zoe is considering taking dancing in the fall. Thinking ahead to prom? I finally decided what I want to be when I grow up - a business owner. Stay tuned. We love our iPhones! Deep Spring Cleaning FTW!
