Founding a HomeschoolyEducaty Group

After three solid days of house cleaning in preparation (it's a big house, it takes three days to get it clean even if it wasn't a tip to start with) today a momentous occasion took place.


Erika and myself founded the Pavia (today it is Pavia, but we are aiming for World Domination !!!) HomeschoolyEduGroup.

Erika is Queenie. Cos she is good with PR, like not telling journalists that evil bidellas should be rendered down for soap making purposes. I am chief procrastinator and official "wave arms hysterically whilst shouting in Italaish" Wise Elder

We had a brilliant day, mosquitoes eating us all on a nature walk notwithstanding. And I am so happy.

I am not all by my Todd, it is great to have somebody to commiserate, bounce ideas off and plot to improve our lot on a bureaucratic level.

The fact that she has bundles of energy, a great mind and vision is just a clump of cherries on the cake which I intend to eat and then make trifle with too.


I feel like a proper homeschooler now. Am off to post on homeschooly groups casually dropping "well in MY homeschooly group we did X, Y and Z and discussed W, P, melting evil bidellas into soap and T", instead of sulking on the sidelines while all the other home educators waggle their groupyness at me making me feel inadequate.

Oh yeah and thanks To Erika and her husband we also have a whizz bangy proper Home Schoolers in Italy website with like a forum and everything !!!!!!! which I will post a link to just as soon as I remember the safe place I saved it in

(happy dances into the kitchen to think about making dinner ..... and opens packets instead)
