Its been 15 days since I've sent you the paypal. I haven't heard anything other than everything went through. Please mail the CD as soon as possible, or at least let me know that it's on it way. I bought it because I need it right away.

Hi, I just wanted to say that I'm in love with your organization, thoroughness, and all around practical creativity. I downloaded your free units and feel inspired. Are you still selling the cd with 60+ units for $100? (mentioned in comments below) Are there any others bundles you're offering? I'm working with limited funds and can't decide which unit to purchase next. :)
Thanks,

Just bought your great Pet Unit. Thanks for all the ideas! I am having trouble with pages 54-58. They appear garbled, and I wonder what I need to do to fix the pages before I print it.

Hello. I am a homeschooling Mom with a home education website. I like to feature free resources on my site, and was wondering if you would allow me to redistribute your Spiders and Bats unit on my site. (I would be happy to list links to your other learning resources, paid and free. Thanks for your consideration. Here's the link to my site, if you want to take a look: http://unsocialized.net
