0:00.0	It's The Simple Show. You've got episode 15.
0:10.8	Hey there, I'm Tish Oxenrider and welcome to the next episode in our series called Ask Tish, where I answer one of your questions related to Simple Living.
0:19.0	To find out how to ask me one of your questions for a future episode, head to
0:22.8	The Simple Show.com, and you'll get all the details.
0:27.3	All right, I'm actually going to answer two questions in this episode because this first
0:31.7	one is super short and fun.
0:33.5	Jenny says, Tish, I have to know what the podcast opening song is. I need that catchy, happy tune as my ringtone. Thanks. Why, thank you, Jenny. I love it too. I got the simple shows opening and closing music, as well as any other bits of sound and other creative stuff for my work at Invato Market. Specifically for music, if you go to audiojungle.net, it's a song called
0:56.8	Indie Girl by Ulma. I'll put a link to all this in the show notes. I have to say, though,
1:02.5	fair warning, I have to edit out an unfortunate 80s-s-s sounding guitar riff mid-song that I don't
1:08.1	particularly care for. But the rest of the song, I love enough to deal with it.
1:12.1	So, yes, thank you for letting me know you like the music. I do too. Now, the second question
1:19.5	is a little bit more involved. So I'm going to dedicate the rest of this episode to this one.
1:24.3	Tracy says, you've mentioned that you aren't homeschooling your kiddos this year.
1:29.4	How is the transition going for them and for you? And bonus question, how did you make your
1:34.2	decision for the year? P.S. I'm a newsletter subscriber. All right. I loved that you asked this question,
1:40.6	Tracy. And I honestly wondered if anyone would bring it up, since I haven't really
1:44.2	talked about it online too much. If you're listening and you don't know a bit about my family
1:49.4	background, that's okay. The super short 10-P peso version is that I grew up never imagining
1:55.3	at ever homeschool. We moved overseas where that was the only real option. So I went from
1:59.7	tolerating the idea to loving
2:01.2	and preferring the idea of homeschooling. And then when we moved back to the states, we've done a
2:06.5	variety of private public and homeschooling. And last year, we did world schooling as we traveled around
