This is absolutely hilarious. I saw this on the blog of another famous Julie at Homeschoolblogger. It is a list of some answers to have ready when you are met with that pesky question about homeschooling, "What, no school today?"
Personally I can't wait to try out #7 and #8.
10. Well normally yes, but this time of year I need help with the planting and plowing.
9. Goodness, no!!! I graduated 18 years ago, but thanks for the compliment!
8. No, we homeschool. We're just out to pick up a bag of pork rinds and some Mountain Dew, then we gotta hurry home to catch our soaps.
7. What?! Where did you guys come from?! I thought I told you to stay at school! I'm sorry. This happens all the time. (sigh)
6. There isn't? Why, you'd think we'd see more kids out then, don't you?
5. We're on a field trip studying human nature's intrusive and assumptive tactics of displaying ignorance and implied superiority. Thanks for the peek!
4. On our planet we have different methods of education. (Shhh! No, I didn't give it away . . . keep your antennae down!)
3. Oh my goodness! I thought that today was Saturday . . . come on kids, hurry!
2. Noooooope. Me 'n Bubba jes' learns 'em at home. Werks reel good!
And the number one answer we should NEVER give to the question: "What? No school today?"
1. "What? No Bingo today?"

Oh my, #1 is hilarious! They all are really. Usually I tell people that we homeschool and are on a field trip. I'd love to add the part about studying hman nature. Maybe I will ;-)
ReplyDeleteLOL! Those are great. I love #5 but I'd never have the nerve to say it.
ReplyDeletei want to use 8 and 2..
ReplyDeletei think i'll go somewhere on purpose...:o)~
While I've never home-schooled before in my life, my best friend here in Texas did home school her girls. Since it tends to be more common here in the South than where we've lived before, my natural assumption anymore when I see kids out & about during the day is that they ARE home-schooled! Happy Tuesday!
