The Hiatus

It has been quite a while since my last post. I've been on a short hiatus because of some changes in our family situation. Specifically, I was offered a temporary contract position outside the house.

The temporary situation, as it turns out, is more temporary than I had hoped. I had hoped for about two years worth of work, but the DoD contract has apparently been terminated earlier. The political aspects of this are interesting, and I may write about them at a later date.

In the interim, my girls switched from home school to private school. We wanted the transition to be as easy as possible, and I was absolutely dead set against public schools. We found a small Roman Catholic parish school, Our Lady of Lourdes. As much as I am a fan of home schooling, I still must say that this school has been tremendous! Small class sizes, a really great group of teachers and administrators, a conservative culture (not in a political sense, but in terms of dress and behavior) - I highly recommend this school to anyone in the Denver area. At such time we return to home schooling, we will still financially support this school.

Hopefully our schedule will stabilize over the next several months, and I will start posting regularly again.
