Start em young in the hobby says I. Mine were so interested in history that they both excelled in school in that area and it soon rubbed off in the rest of their schooling, except for their spelling they are straight A students and I blame their love of Living History for that.

The way I look at it it's a learning experience hidden in fun. Reenacting covers so many different subjects all at once, all through doing. I also really like that she gets to see me actively learning as well, which backs up my life motto of "the truly educated never graduate".

OK, *wrench**pry* I'm shutting down the computer & sewing already!

:mellow: but if you say it was opposite day on the day then it can't be because if it was then you would have said it wasn't.

Actually, it's because caffeine can have a calming effect on people with ADD & ADHD and other sorts of troubles. I have coffee when ever I'm feeling stressed & it actually does calm me down. When it doesn't work, then I really know something is up.

Ah but the person declaring it's opposite day ...is exempt from the oppositeness..I know this as I have been declaring that day for years...

I can drink a whole cup of coffee and pass right out after work in the am. Never did a thing for me. Cept it's tasty :mellow:
