Introduction

Hello classmates, I am Dorothy. I live in New Hampshire with my husband and three children. My oldest is twelve and my youngest two are eight. I work full time and I homeschool my two youngest. Obviously I have now added "student" to my list of titles, which I don't regret....most of the time. I want to eventually be a chiropractor and I am using Kaplan as a way to gain the prerequisites to enter chiropractic college. A quick explanation of my silly blog name. My brain is frazzled and I couldn't think of a name. In the midst of this, I was telling my girls to clean their room, much to their chagrin. "Why mommy?" was the incessant whine. I responded, "Why don't you just do it and then it will be over with." (A statement I have to apply in my own life, daily, when I leave my house to go to work!) Stella's response was, "Why not have a dance off instead?" It was her intention to be flip and she was parroting something she saw on the Disney channel, but the result was, a name for my blog. ;) I look forward to conversing with you all throughout this course. Best, Dorothy

  1. I love the way you got the name for your blog! Children are amazing, so innocent, I learn a lot from my children. They keep me young. Our oldest is 16 and the youngest is 4, we have a total of seven children. There is never a dull moment in the house. I understand the whole frazzled brain thing, this is why I meditate and do yoga. It is what keeps me sane and grounded. If I did not have my meditation I would probably go insane. I look forward to reading your blog!
