creekland Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Mentally things are starting to drive me bonkers. Wed is getting tackled with drugs (legal ones!). There's some wine in the fridge too. Maybe later... and perhaps chocolate for breakfast. (sigh) Signing off for a bit to get more done - and maybe a nap.

Luckymama Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I woke up 17 minutes before dh's alarm went off. I was so sure it was still the middle of the night because of the light level (or lack thereof). Don't you just hate when that happens? Up ahead: --my portion of school w dd (history, chem, APHG, math) --exercise while she's in Arabic class --bake baguettes --call dr for dd19's epipen prescription --write rubric for history papers --homework for Saturday (have to read a book) --emails left from yesterday --discussion questions for APHG group tomorrow (the kids meet on public school holidays) --dd ballet 6-8 Fingers are crossed for a day of smooth transitions before and after Arabic!

Baseball mom Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I don't feel like playing along (hurt my back) but I really need to. I was writing out my list a little bit ago and it got overwhelming at the stuff I need to do. The condensed version is: laundry school picking up all over house sweeping mopping vacuum clean bathroom supper balance checkbook Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lizzie in Ma Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Good morning everyone! Morning chores all done Kitchen was a disaster this morning, everyone is cooking, no one is cleaning and bacon grease was everywhere! Middle of the night, hour long panic attack to take care of with oldest, no idea what time it happened. Coffee is good. School with youngest, we are really enjoying TTC US History (not the HS one) The BJU textbook is terrible so we switched to supplementing with K12 and TTC. She likes the BJU because she likes tests and quizzes but she is learning nothing with it. Take the boyfriend home on the way to class Outside Logic class with youngest and stop by to see Mom on the way home. Grill steaks for supper Continue knitting Christmas presents and coaching youngest on her new circular knitting skills while we watch something on Netflix tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mom31257 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Lunch is done, and school is happening as I type this. One thing to add to my list: Talk dh into a stay in the mountains the first weekend of his fall break. I've found an affordable location that is rather unique. It's a permanently stationed 5th wheel camper with covered roof and nice deck. The resort has soon good amenities as well. Wish me luck!

Jean in Newcastle Posted September 24, 2014 Author Share Posted September 24, 2014 Located phone. Called insurance - I am so grateful that every single person I've talked to on our insurance and their insurance has been kind and professional. They've paid everything I asked for and even more. I'm also grateful that my pain levels (only peripherally connected with the car accident) are going down with daily treatment. I'm going to have to do my PT exercises religiously but then I was supposed to be doing those anyway. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustEm Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Well all we've managed to do today from my list is go to the park. We were there for 2 hours and all had a great time. But I'm quite worn out now so I don't think we'll be doing any schoolwork, which is fine by me since they are still so young and quite advanced. Youngest is napping, other two are relaxing with some shows, and I think I'll be napping as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted September 24, 2014 Author Share Posted September 24, 2014 Ds and I have talked about school schedule, computer time and deadlines. All the basics! I think we have a plan in place. Execution is mostly up to him at his age. He is ordering the last book he needs for physics. I've ordered what he needs for Latin. Lunch is done.

Jean in Newcastle Posted September 24, 2014 Author Share Posted September 24, 2014 worked on the pile and did two PITA things (which is why they were relegated to the pile to begin with) Got to go - taking my dd to Zoe's Frozen Yogurt!

creekland Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 One thing to add to my list: Talk dh into a stay in the mountains the first weekend of his fall break. I've found an affordable location that is rather unique. It's a permanently stationed 5th wheel camper with covered roof and nice deck. The resort has soon good amenities as well. Wish me luck! Good luck! It sounds terrific - you wouldn't have to do anything at all to convince me. Hopefully your dh feels the same way. I scrapped my list right after critter chores. I showered and went to go let the vampires pull blood for tests that were suggested, then came home, we fixed sandwiches for lunch, then I took a nap. Now I'm watching ponies eat while hubby is mowing the lawn (should be my job). The guy is a saint. The dust bunnies will get to live another day (or week if I opt to go into school the next couple of days) and the cat is working on his 20 hours of sleep so didn't even notice his servant had left for a bit. He probably thought I'd finally come to my senses with the nap bit. Still have to contemplate the supper bit, but it's easier with no kids to feed. I miss the kids though.

Jean in Newcastle Posted September 25, 2014 Author Share Posted September 25, 2014 Did a whole bunch of school scheduling. Made and ate dinner Now I'm going to make myself take ds to an activity which I'd rather poke my eyes out than do but since I'm a "nice" mama I will do it anyway. . . . (But I'm going to grumble silently.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
