You know you're a homeschooler when... (Part Zwei)

...you randomly switch to German while typing the title to your blog post! LOL

...you have enough musical instruments to outfit a small band. Seriously, it is not normal (not that I have been accused of that lately) to have as many instruments as I do. I didn't even know I had this many. 2 violins (5 if you count the antiques, but I won't even let the kids breathe on those!), 2 guitars, 3 recorders, pan flute, clay ocarina, 4 drums, 2 tamborines and more hand percussion instruments than you can shake a drum stick at. Although I have no drum sticks! That doesn't even include the mallets and shakers I keep for SLC!!! Playgroups are very noisy at my house!!

...your children do math problems in the layer of dust on the TV screen.

...your 7 year old complains that you don't have enough books. According to Library Thing we have 831 and there about 50 that I am too lazy to enter manually. We, most definitely, need more!!! LOL

...you have dissection tools drying on the window sill.

...a discussion of philosophy with your 7 year old leaves you more confused than you were when you started.

...you introduce yourself to a new person and they go, "OH! YOOOUURRR Ann-Marie." (I swear, whatever you heard, it isn't true!! :) )

LOL! My family in MS all think we are weirdos for homeschooling. I just grinned and said, If you think I am weird, you really should see some of the people I hang out with. LOL!!!
