CadenceSophia Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 I have a orthodontist appt tomorrow morning that will mess up school, but it's the only time I could reschedule to after cancelling last week when the car died and the kids got sick. Then DS has online class Then I'll try and get as much done with everyone after 1pm as I can, but I don't have high hopes. I'm absolutely dreading this week. DH leaves in the morning and then I'll only have one more day with him (Friday) until the Saturday before thanksgiving. And we've stalled as much as possible but need to say goodbye to our beloved cat this week. There are a lot of good things mixed up in all of this but I can't even think about them right now.. Also on the list for the week-- cleaning out the fridge, packing our bags, preparing snow gear and bedding for our return. Packing things for the temporary house into the trailer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CadenceSophia Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Thank you for the support. I'm so glad to have this thread :) Survived our first day. I think we actually got a whole day done. Listened to CHOW in the car back and forth to my appt (not sure I love CHOW.. I didn't check the age & biases before buying during the current audible sale. Faulty science makes me nuts). I got DS through class... Had the kids do a much needed pickup and then they all did all subjects except writing which is ok since we are still in the handwriting/copy work phase for the majority of our time. I just finished putting my feet up for a bit to increase mental reserves.. Now on to dinner/read aloud/cleaning/bed time. Not necessarily in that order... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mommyof1 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Well DH changed the day. He decided to have a Daddy Daughter day. He took her to the park and visited some family and friends. While they were gone I got to clean both bedrooms and listen to the radio uninterrupted. I needed that. She found money while they were out and she told me what they were, so coins were covered. Now I just have to get a little bit of phonics. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kidlit Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 (edited) I’m joining in today, Wednesday. I’m listing the things I need to do, not what kids need to do: Breakfast {Done} Laundry {in progress, though I learned after putting it in the washer that it was CLEAN! [emoji849][emoji13]} With 4 and 7 yo: Read book (McBroom’s Zoo—will do this while I eat) {Done} With 7 yo: Math {done} History {done} Grammar {done} Reading/spelling {done} {We ended up doing almost all his normal lessons once we got going. [emoji1373]} Lunch + Bible, Memory Work, Art study, read aloud {done, plus watching 20 min of travel video about India} With 13 yo Review math lesson {done} Review writing assignment {done} Look at and listen to geography narrations {done} With 11 yo: Latin {done} Math {done} Geography narrations {done} With 13 and 11 yo together: Read aloud and look at literary elements in Homeless Bird {done} Listen to Tom Sawyer audiobook, time permitting {will do on way to church tonight} We also watched CNN10, which is something I mean to do but often forget.

CadenceSophia Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 The last two days haven't gone quite as I wanted. Baby is miserable either from teeth or from his stuffy nose which makes it hard to nurse, especially at night. His misery is my lack of sleep..I did ok yesterday just sticking to basics but today I had to give up and let the kids watch magic school bus while I went back to sleep. I'm hoping to salvage the afternoon slightly but I teach catechism today, need to find someone to watch the littles still. Need to get the house clean and need to work on some jobs that are critical for our departure on Friday night so I guess school is taking a back seat. DD made a cartoon as part of her Latin work yesterday https://pixton.com/ic:06luxcwx So I guess this week is not a complete failure :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kidlit Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 (edited) Thursday, 10/19 Today we have a pumpkin patch field trip at noon, so the morning window is short. We usually have Fun Fridays for getting out of our routine, so today I’m calling it Terrific Thursday and planning Freewriting for the big kids {done, though not well} Copywork for the little guy (which is actually not a Fun Friday only activity but I can pass it off today as such) {done} Math games (individual and collective, I hope!) {done—two games, fitting in something for all three school aged kids [emoji1373]} That’s a very optimistic list! [emoji13] Kids are still sleeping and it’s 7:30. I haven’t even showered. I’ve got to get it in gear!

Mommyof1 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 (edited) Good Morning, Done- she read a Bob book to me. We reviewed the sounds for "th"&"gr". Calendar work and Halloween countdown. Checked the weather and she explained what she saw outside. Cumulus and cumulus nimbus clouds. Lifeskills- clean up your own mess. Especially toys that she thinks belong on the floor. Practice shoe tying. Went on a nature walk My social butterfly got to see and talk to lots of people. Didn't get a play date though. Used her number cards Edited October 21, 2017 by Mommyof1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
