School Stuff

I am stressing big time.  Normally by this time, we've already begun our new school year.  The older kids are still working on finishing their math, and I'm working on figuring out the next year.  G wants to learn econ, but the first book I got on the topic is taking me a long time to read.  It's a bit boring.  But it got rave reviews, and it has good things to say, I just need to force myself to spend more time on it.

I ponder the kids' futures a lot, too.  Knowledge is such an easily acquired commodity these days, whereas it seems as though skills are more challenging.  I need to get the kids doing things to enhance some of their inherent talent, explore more of what fascinates them.  All while figuring out how to get them into college and on a good path for life.  No pressure.
