Good lord! Why did you have to get so ambitious on my self-imposed day of laziness!? LOL! Sorry about the kitchen thing, let's just make sure Peter takes care of the vacumming, shall we? ;-)
It's so sad when talent or the joy of learning gets beaten out of kids somehow :( I had a couple of experiences along these lines myself (having to do with music) and it just sucks. Off and on I've addressed it but that sense of joy for those things continues to elude me...
I too keep threatening with home schooling as well because our public schools have become such crap. Peter's not too sure so it might end up being private school. But that all depends on the final answer to the "kids question" of course! ;-)
I'm with you on the Swedish thing -- email today or tomorrow! :o) And, you, no help from Magnus!! ;-) I'm excited for you regarding the writing thing -- I wish you all the best with that! And I think you'll find PHP is blast :) :)
