I've been looking through some books and magazines and gathering links to help people. With all the lay offs and bad economy, plus it's getting to be graduation time, I thought it would be a good time to post. I have a bunch of links that will help you figure out what you're best suited for, places teens cn do apprenticeships/ internships, a couple of links about colleges, and more. Not everyone needs to go to college to get a good job, and I'd like to help them figure out their strengths.

I do think that's all I have on that. I'll be posting work at home places and ideas in a future post along with homeschool links (free and some that cost), tons of printable links for kids and adults (calendars, shopping lists, etc.), and more. If you have any requests, just put them in comments and I'll see what I can do. I'm hoping to get my freezer cooking links all together again. My main one was shut down (the owner wasn't aware her server was going down), so now we're waiting for her to find a new server and to get her stuff posted again. Such a help on a busy day to have a meal ready to go!
Thanks for stopping by! Please go check out my other blog www.ShelszooSuperstores.blogspot.com and see the pictures I have of the things I sell.
Have a great weekend!
