Here is your answer.
That's right. I went to home school. Brenda, my mom, was also my first teacher. I went to traditional school in 5th grade, but before then i spent three years doing the following:
(This is Mom with Mary Whipple - that's right, mom kicks it with Olympian Gold Medalists!)- Planting gardens (one year 30 tomato plants, 18 hills of zucchini)
- baking bread from scratch
- Raising kittens and puppies
- Cleaning
- Making dinner
- Building forts
- Building play houses
- Working in the yard
- Not watching TV
- Not playing video games
- Helping out on a fellow homeschoolers ranch
- Hiking through the woods
- And doing an occasional math worksheet
- Riding my bike to the community swimming pool
Now, most of you probably almost deleted me from your blogroll. These facts do not make me weird, at all. Promise.
I just wanted you to know that not everyone who goes to homeschool turns out odd. My brother and sister both went, and from what i know they seem pretty normal. We are all quite socially adempt too (i have almost 300 friends on Facebook...its way better than myspace...).
So, give a homeschooler a chance!

Farm People! Field trips with the Happy Home School Group!
Don't forget you helped build a house - your name is on my parents' brass plaque to prove it. :)
I loved homeschool. I'm totally going to make my kid a homeschool hottie.
Haha, oh you are weird. But that's why you're so awesome!
but this certainly explains a lot.
oh and your brothers sideburns are crazy
I love the shirt, I think I will get one! I have no regrets of being home schooled but Rouru says I was deprived with the lack of TV!
Nothing wrong with being WEIRD...
I went to such a small school in upstate NY that I might as well have been home schooled!
I think the key thing is to not grow up all urban, or even sub-urban. I can't imagine not having spent all those years exploring in the woods behind my house.
...but yeah you have been deleted. :)
you left out the part about how you became so un-modest??
hmmm...must have been absent the day she went over the spelling of "adept".
like your blog.
Laura: This is true, we helped build a house before we were ten years old!!
Jamie: Just because most of my clothes is ill-fitting and it is so hot here i can't figure out how to zip my jersey's up, doesn't mean i am unmodest.
And Trainwreck: I am glad you like my blog. And i ride bikes and teach PE, i speak a lot, but you don't have to have good spelling to talk! and yes, i missed that entire subject!
