I am appalled at some of the young people who are the future of our country. My daughter (17) and I went to Walmart the other day. Now, understand, I hate going in Walmart to begin with. It’s always crowded and don’t get me started on the newest “Great Value” white boxes all over the shelves.

Anyway…we got a few things and made our way to one of the only four checkouts that were open. After quite a long wait, it was finally our turn to check out. The young girl at the cash register rang up the groceries and the total was $36.23. Without really thinking about it, I handed her $41.25. Two twenties, a one and a quarter. She looked at the money in her hand for a few seconds and then looked at the cash register with a puzzled look on her face.

She then did the one thing that gave her away as someone who doesn’t have a clue…she tried to hand me back the dollar and the quarter and said “It only came to $36.23.” OMG!!! My jaw dropped and I said “Trust me. Punch 41.25 into the register. Everything will work out just fine.” She did and VOILA!! the register told her to give me $5.02 back. She then said…wait for it…are you ready…this was the next thing that told me she didn’t have a clue…

“I still don’t understand why you gave me $41.25″

What in the world do they teach in school these days???? THIS is why I homeschool my kids. No…I take that back…here’s one more “what the he** is wrong with the schools these days?” story:

In 2007 we moved from upstate NY to KY. We enrolled my daughter in school. We were given a day and time to show up at the school and get her schedule. The seniors were passing out the schedules. My daughter’s last name is Spears. She told the girl her name and the girl thumbed through the schedules. She then looked up at us and asked…wait for it…(this one didn’t have a clue either)…

“Does Spears come before or after Smith?”

My daughter and I both looked at each other and (with scared looks on our faces) said “after”. When we got outside we both burst out laughing. K then said to me “Well, Mom, we are in Kentucky now. Maybe Spears comes before Smith here.” and we laughed some more. Every once in a while, when we witness someone doing something…um…less than smart…we say (complete with our fake southern accents) “Does Spears come before or after Smith?”

It took just a few short months for us to realize that public school is not where my daughter needed to be. Both of my kids were reading on a college level at 15 & 16. My son took the GED pretest recently because he was considering getting his GED. The examiner told him that he scored higher on his pretest than he had seen in all of his years as an examiner.

What in the world is wrong with our schools? These kids are the future of our country. And no – it’s not just KY. Kids in NY are the same way. A friend of my son emailed me the other day and I replied “I can’t understand half of what you wrote. I don’t understand you kids’ shorthand so can you use real words?” He called and said he was using real words. I asked him to spell a few words like “address” and “what” and “where”. HE COULDN’T SPELL THEM!!!! He graduated from the public school system this year.

HELP!!! What are they teaching in school?

Energy Drink Review & Giveaway

CRAVE-MED

Vitamark International has reformulated and released their Crave Energy Drink. Crave not only gives you great energy, but had FOS sugars that feed the friendly bacteria in your stomach. This is a HUGE plus for my sensitive stomach.

I am giving away 10 stick packs (20 servings) of Crave. Crave powder mixes easily with everyday water. Nothing fancy. Use it like you use the koolaid flavoring and enjoy WAY less sugar and WAY more energy. There’s no crash and no after headache with crave. The energy sneaks up on you, lasts for a long time, and goes away quietly, so there’s no jittery burst of energy for 10 minutes. It’s a few hour long, sustained energy.

I drank my first Crave energy drink when I was driving from Houston, TX to Elizabethtown, KY. After about 3 hours of driving, I was getting tired. I mixed up the crave and drove another FOUR HOURS!!! This stuff is awesome!!

Even though I’ve run many specials. This is for you. If you truly can’t afford the cost of the course, you NEED to be attending the course!! This is it. I will not run another one this low. Is your future worth $39?? If you can’t afford $39 – borrow it from someone and get on the calls. These calls are powerful. Visit HERE and see what the course is all about. Then come back here to order.
