DAG...I might be able to be in MI on that weekend (we'll be kinda driving thru). Where in MI are you? I might have to find a way to be there! LOL
Thanks ,I am not always sure on my writing so having people help is wonderful!! We actually have two in our area. One APRIL 19TH and this one June 7th. And we have about 10 with in 2 hours of here. They are awesome and GREAT prices!!! That is why I over buy. We are by Midland and Saginaw. Last year it went good and so we thought why not do another. If you are all looking for anything I can keep my eye out. I got Apologia General Science last year for 20.00.. If anyone else sees anything let me know. I have a week before posting it on our site. Be Blessed
Do you want nitpicky responses, Lisa, or just a general overall impression? (I go into nitpicky editing mode quickly, but will refrain if you don't wanna go there. LOL) Overall, I think it's great and I wish I could come to the sale!
I am ok with any really. I know my grammar is not always the best and wording is not my "THING". That is why I just bought IEW for my kids..(and me) So any help would be great. The funny thing is when you post to some homeschoolers they e-mail and tell me what I did wrong!! But that is ok. I just thought any way to make it look better would be wonderful. Truthfully I cut and pasted some of this from another sale. If you feel better PM me that is fine too... THANK YOU
LOL There wasn't THAT much nitpicking to be done!
