Convert An Electric Sewing Machine To Non-Electric
I often wonder what I would do if there was no power and I could not sew! I love to sew! So I did some searching and I found some really great post online about how to convert your sewing machine into a treadle. I think this is a really cool idea. If the crap did hit the fan this would be a good service to be able to offer others also, be able to sew things that people would need. Like diapers, clothes, blankets, etc. Trade that service for something that you need.
I found some great links and info on How To Convert An Electric Sewing Machine To Non-Electric With A Treadle (Foot Pedal) or Hand Crank and some other great info by searching on Google. Might be something that someone can do if their electric one is broken. I wish that I had found this info before I threw my broken one away. :(

Homeschooling a Toddler
I have been having so much fun with my little one this past year. He turned 5 in September and it just seems like in the past year he has gotten to be smart. He still like numbers better than letters and I have really had to find some super fun games and some movies to get him interested in even trying to learn his ABCs! He finally knows them and loves rattling them off to anyone and anywhere!! Now I have to tackle the learning to write and learn to write his name etc.
Most of my homeschooling worksheets and information comes for FREE from the internet and the library. I also have been lucky and have gotten great textbooks and workbooks at thrift store for almost free , children's books at our Goodwill are 50 cents. I have been buying them even if they are for grades ahead. I have most of what I will need for up to the 6th grade.
I am wanting to start a homeschooling group in our small town so that we can all meet and the kids can meet and help each other. I really think that would be a good idea. We could even go on "field trips". Go to museums , zoos, etc. Save money on gas etc. Most of the museums and places have lower group rates.
