Default Pick a name
My mother likes "I'm bored" which I don't like at all, but I see her point. I like "something educational"...but I can see getting bored reading about what is educational about everything....I was also thinking of 'what did you do this week'...cause part of what is encouraging me to actually do at least one issue, is that exact question.........

so if anyone has an opinion, I would love to hear it!

I'm sorry, but I don't understand what we are supposed to be picking a name for. At first, I thought you were expecting again!

Stranger things have happened!

I'll bite, what does UE mean?

And I like the boredom route too.

BTW what about something fun? instead of something educational?

I like ambiguity, this is all in my spare time, I can't see finding enough to get 5 of anything...and I don't really want to be locked into only home stuff..not that there is anything against home..just that I don't know any other homeschoolers (IRL) so I don't think they want me to be all about the house!

I like Ray's suggestions, especially Homespun Fun. It doesn't have to be all about homeschooling or home activities...it's just coming out of your home.
