Well, I’ll just jump on board with your quirkiness… (word?) or in my case just plain oddity. We are just about to break ground to build our first house… yet somehow in storage I already own 4 wall size chalk boards. (2 for the wall and 2 on wheels) My husband brought them home from the last school auction at the district he works at and I couldn’t say no. I also took a box of microscopes, 6 brightly colored retro chairs, and brightly painted library shelves that are meant to sit in the middle of the floor.

Now if I only had a house, lol!

I am always amazed at the number of people that feel that are qualified to teach yet have little to no training. I am not necessarily talking about you as you are a professional with many years of college. However, I am not trained as a doctor so why would I operate or prescribe medicine for my child? I spent several years training as educator, including graduate and post-graduate work. What’s the difference? Then there are those women who barely graduted high school and decide to homeschool. How are THEY possibly qualified to teach their children? Putting children in front of a computer and allowing it to instruct is not teaching a child.

Quirky must be the word of the week. Everyone keeps mentioning someone who is quirky. You are a different kind of quirky than the others. I like your kind better. Chalk and dressers and turquoise I can relate to.

I wanted chalkboard walls, but my husband vetoed the idea. He didn’t want the chalk dust everywhere, so I settled on a little square on our door going out to the garage.

In a van down by the river! Love it!

Quirky means never dull

I have a question about your “clothesline” that hangs in front of your chalk wall. I’m a (new)homeschooler and looking for something to hang our work from without putting holes in our walls. This might be the answer. Can you elaborate?
Hugs!!!

I did chalk board tables last year for my kiddos and they loved it!

Congrats on your award for Blessed Aroma through Internet Cafe Devotions.
