As a hard-core night-shift nurse of almost 30 years, I know a thing or two about sleep. Like any true night-shifter, I obsess about it, I protect it, and I love it. Getting a full night's sleep is something we night-shift nurses dream of, yet despite knowing all of the tips and tricks, we rarely get. Recently, through the fog of my own messed up sleep, I've noticed that my pre-teen son was also struggling with sleep.

Mental health was never a big concern for me until the pandemic hit. Along with the lockdowns came the suspending of Homeschool Co-ops, friends and family isolating, sports and club closures, even parks and public libraries were off limits!

After over a year of staying at home, my family and I finally had the chance to travel. The kids wanted to go to the beach, so we headed to Florida for a little rest and relaxation.

The one response I get EVERY SINGLE TIME from people when asked about homeschooling is: “I couldn’t never do that. I don’t have the patience.” Each time, I want to respond “Um…  Have we met?!” If you know me at all, you will know that I am probably the least patient person on the planet. So yes, homeschooling is a constant challenge to me because of this. But, because of the incredible benefits of homeschooling, I am always looking for ways to create a stress-free homeschool day. Stress management is super important for me. I have a pretty intense job as a nurse. I work 12...
