Would those of you who pray, please pray for my dh? His high school has done the crazy thing of starting earlier this year, despite all the research that says teens should sleep later, and he has been given morning duty every day in the gym. 

 

He has some sleep/insomnia issues himself, so now he has to be there at 6:45 every day, 45 minutes earlier than last year. He does get to leave 15 minutes earlier than everyone else, but let's be real. Teachers never leave at the time they are allowed because they always have more work than that. 

 

Please pray he will be able to get on a better sleep pattern for this new schedule!

Amy,  :grouphug:  :grouphug:  :grouphug:  for your dh. We are required to be at my site at 7:00 a.m.  And yes, all the research says later is better, but apparently you can't interfere with the school bus schedule.  

 

Morning, all!

 

Dh helped me clean downstairs last night so that is off the list. :hurray:

To do:

lesson plan with co-worker

dd to dr. appt

work on decluttering dining room 

aqua class or other exercise workout

baked chicken/salad for dinner

 

Have a great day!

Forgot to mention laundry.  It's almost caught up ... until tonight, when I'll have another load to wash.  :P

 

Confirmed math class for tonight.  Now need to figure out how to leave work early to make that work ....

 

Cleaned out some junk collectors.

 

Starting to get restless about this disorganized house ....

Thanks so much for the prayers! So many changes. They are going to block scheduling for the first time, too. 

 

Eye dr appointment went well. I made an appointment for my annual physical. I don't think I've had one in over two years, so I'm behind on my mammogram, too. 

 

Lunch is done, so it's on to more organizing and scheduling.

I had a few phone calls this afternoon in relation to co-op, so I haven't done enough school stuff. The power went out in the middle of cooking dinner, but I had a salad kit here and the corn casserole was done enough. The chicken didn't make it to the dinner table. It was out for over two hours and just came on. 

 

I suppose since I have light now I should do some work.

I got things done in the office and kitchen today, but cleaning didn't happen. Oh well, I'll get to it one of these days.

 

Tomorrow, I have to get my chores done extra early because the horse vet and farrier will both be here at 7:30. Hoping for a good night's sleep tonight!
