Second Harvest Curriculum, Your Light at the End of the Tunnel When Selling Your Used Homeschool Books!

I get a lot of calls during the year from people wanting to sell their used homeschool books.
Please help!

1. They are taking up way to much space in my closet, garage, storeroom etc.

2. This would really help to buy next year’s curriculum or pay the electric bill.

3. We are moving.

4. My husband wants them gone!

I have moms call saying “I have years of Abeka books I need to sell, don’t know why I hung on to them so long.
Some of the reasons are:

1. We might need them for reference

2. Maybe our younger children could use them.

Distance Brings Our Teen Closer

There was a time when Riley would talk to me of her own accord:
Guess what happened to me today at school, Daddy.
Wanna hear a joke?
Can I ask your advice about something, Papa?

Now she’s sixteen, and, yes, she talks to me, but it’s often like pulling teeth:

“How was school today?” I’ll ask.
“Fine,” she responds, eyes glued to her smartphone.

I tell her a joke. She offers me a courtesy smile, then heads off to her room.

Will Mediation Bring Us Back Together?

By the time struggling couples decide to hire a divorce mediator, one or both of the spouses have decided that the marriage has deteriorated so much, it is beyond saving and therefore should end. Spouses often agree on using divorce mediation instead of expensive and lengthy litigation when they believe they can handle all of the issues relating to divorce, such as separation of assets and debt, child custody and visitation arrangements, and spousal and child support, and find common ground with few arguments.

Divorce Related Depression : How Can I Avoid It?

A divorce can bring many different emotions flooding to the surface: Anger, fear, and doubt may plague your thoughts. Depression and anxiety are common side effects of divorce. Separating from the partner you agreed to share your life with can be a catalyst for a depressive episode. This is a clinical event, so you shouldn’t dismiss it as a case of the blues.
