Time to stop talking, and start doing!

Okay, just for fun I was reading through all my old posts from the last couple of years, and I'm so embarassed! I've run so many placement scenarios past y'all, and have yet to actually complete an HOD program. One good thing about time slipping by, however: my dc are getting older and don't need so much hand-holding on assignments, so I feel like I can actually handle running multiple programs. I have also learned so much about my dc from being their teacher, so I feel like it's easier to figure out placement without messing it up this time!
So, I'm ready to stop TALKING about doing HOD, and actually start DOING it! (starting in June, that is!). I can't wait till I can place an order. We are doing our taxes tomorrow and I'm hoping for a big refund and that dh will let me use a nice chunk of it for curriculum.
Just wanted to share...
ETA: We did our taxes and the refund is bigger than we expected. Unfortunately, this has dh skeptical that somehow it was done wrong (using new accountant). So, until he has his dad (who is a retired accountant) look it over, he's trying not to get excited. It was filed electronically so we'll have our refund in a couple of weeks. Hopefully by then I'll have the all-clear to place an order. I haven't talked about that with dh yet though. I need to figure out how to convince him that using HOD will be better than what I had planned!
