Aloha, my name is Holly Kalua and as a new Shelter in Place (SIP) Mom (and nurse); I wanted to find help for those of us who have never attempted schooling our children at home. Through this "SIP Schoolers" series, we find even the experienced homeschooling parent has had to overcome new hurdles with COVID and other challenges that we can all learn from and support each other through our parenting journeys.
Multi-tasking queen and super mom of energetic twin 10 year old girls, Corriene Kelly shares how the Shelter in Place orders brought her family’s hectic lifestyle to an unprecedented pause.
Corriene had to abruptly leave her job as a physical therapist in order to be the twin’s distance learning teacher, while continuing to run their “Board and Care” home with several nonagenarian residents.
I shared a few financial strategies with Corriene as we talked about the significant financial impact of giving up her job, the decrease B & C revenue from a freeze on resident admissions, and taking in account the impact of not being able to keep her employees on the payroll. In spite of these challenges, Corriene discusses how she and her family have a new appreciation for what their actual needs are and have come to the realization that having just enough, is really okay.
Not only has Corriene been the purveyor of the twin’s scholastic curriculum, she has also been teaching the girls cooking and landscaping life-skills – a secret I must follow up on ;-)
