Accountability Thread 3/18-3/24


Recommended Posts

The time change is definitely a struggle here as well- plus we just moved and switched time zones (so we lost an additional hour there as well).  My husband is going out of town for the week, so today I have to:

 

Run some errands (grocery store, etc)

Get some more unpacking and organizing done

Plan this week's school schedule since we are a bit off track from the move

Definitely make sure I'm stocked up on coffee for the week *priority* ;)

It's fine. Just a little bruised and sore. The rooster was in a terrible mood yesterday for some reason and got after the boy too. He got a pretty good cut, and so I went out to deal with the bird and he wasn't any happier with me. He's in a better mood today so far.

I made the decision to start transitioning to summer schedule early. I don't sleep well anytime, but spring and summer are the worst, possibly because my bedroom window faces east. I'm not ready to put black-out curtains up yet, and it's futile to tell the chick-chick-chickadee to "shut-up already!" So I opted to have the boys not bother waking up before 7:30 and we're starting school closer to 9:30 in the morning now. By summer, the start time will be 10:00 or 10:30, giving us the full morning to sleep if we need it. By us, I mean me. My usual sleep pattern in the summer is go to bed at ten, lie awake until midnight, wake up at four, lie awake until six, and go back to sleep at seven. :glare:

Good morning, I'm up as usual, and wishing I wasn't! Today's schedule

 

Read a psalm

Math

Latin

Spelling test/literature/grammar

 

Science study and math for older boy. We've been having some really good math days, why don't/can't I remember that he needs me close by to do his math with him?

 

For me: laundry, grade history test from yesterday, attempt to watch a portion of the first Teaching the Classics video and take notes, order the syllabus (may do this on Monday).

Scratch this, I took the boys to Starbucks and we did parent/teacher/student conferences. Oldest and I talked about what we wanted to do for next year and for summer term. One thing I need to keep in my mind is that, at least for math, I need to be with him, working side by side. I am doing the things on my list though.
