The downside of using internet for homeschool

It happened again this morning.  The internet connection suddenly went down.  This means homeschool lessons were put on hold as the bulk of the children's academics are internet powered.  When this happens, I have to re-arrange and have them do their piano practice, and non-internet stuff until the web is up and running again.  Fortunately, it did not take long today.  However, there have been full weeks when we have had connectivity issues.

I always seem to find a way around it, but the downside to using the internet for homeschool is the fact that it may suddenly go down at any moment.

Pair that with the fact that I also make my living online, and I bet you can imagine my frustration!
