I also hate that people assume that you're lazy and/or stupid if you're on any sort of government assistance. <br /><br />Also, I love your blog layout. I just happen to be listening to a Harry Potter soundtrack and that owl makes me think of Hedwig! :-PAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6407720217414346143.post-522723612082679292011-10-12T10:21:32.810-04:002011-10-12T10:21:32.810-04:00Adrienne- that is the thing that I am most gratefu...Adrienne- that is the thing that I am most grateful for as well. Our move to Ohio is supposed to help facilitate that- staying at home with Rowan.<br /><br />I am working on ways to make money from home, and coming up with great ideas. I also will be using our homesteading as a medium to educate Rowan, as we plan on homeschooling. Caring for a small urban farm is a great way to learn reading, math, social skills, and life skills, doncha think?Witch Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09230271988961202618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6407720217414346143.post-4873267177077843022011-10-12T09:23:17.281-04:002011-10-12T09:23:17.281-04:00I too resonated with much of what you wrote.

However, I am grateful I get to stay home with my son, which is a luxury not all can afford.Adriennehttp://mommyingmyway.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6407720217414346143.post-80541860143302642932011-10-11T23:11:30.875-04:002011-10-11T23:11:30.875-04:00Thanks for all the well wishes and good thoughts, ...Thanks for all the well wishes and good thoughts, y'all!

My husband works in a poorly paid field - nature conservation in South Africa. We are receiving a lot of help from my parents. And, most of all, I too hate money. I find I am happier without it than with it. Well done for having a plan, or a dream, and I hope it comes true for you soon :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10767847394956942818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6407720217414346143.post-75919320220209133102011-10-11T08:52:13.558-04:002011-10-11T08:52:13.558-04:00Your family is in my thoughts.

I wish you many blessings :) we went through something like this about a year and a half ago and now we live in the state and place we have always wanted. The house itself is far from perfect but everything else is really great. Maybe this will turn out to be that way for you. Maybe this had to happen to give your family something greater. I hope it is! Keep your chin up it gets better!

I didn't realize it was a trend, but I can see why! I only wish I'd done it sooner. The benefits are astounding. I, too, get aggravated at the unfair perceptions of welfare recipients. I'm sorry that there's no good option for you to receive assistance in Ohio and hope your partner gets a job soon and that your schooling continues to go well.Lauren Waynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07500733577920040395noreply@blogger.com
