Day 342 of 1000
Yesterday Kelly and I had lunch at the Wendys over by Wake Technical Community College. We ate there a lot when the kids were going to Wake Tech because it was so convenient. While we were sitting there waiting for our food, it dawned on my that this was no longer the official “on the way to school” eating place because the kids have moved on to NCSU. For some reason that seemed pretty weird. Then today, a lady wrote a very nice comment about some of the stuff we did with CLEP and homeschool that I have written about in a series of blog posts several years ago. It got me to thinking.
I miss homeschool, but not nearly as much as I thought I would miss it. Lorena, the kids, and I really did the very best we knew to do in our homeschooling. The same is true for the community college. Maybe that is why I feel a little nostalgic about those times, but even better to have moved on. Sure, there are a lot of things we think we could have done better, but we really do not know how we would have known we should do them at the time–if you know what I mean.
Now that we have a new school to support, we need a new “on the way to school” eating place. Even though the closest Chick-fil-A is not really on the way to NCSU, in light of recent events, I think it will be worth it to make the detour–a double reason to eat Chikin.
