KeriJ Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Starting school again tomorrow. I'm not feeling it. But yet, I'm so glad the holidays are over. Feeling the need for routine!! But yet, feeling the need for sleep. The struggle is real. On another note, my family is in the other room watching Bad Lip Reading videos.

This would have been more helpful if I'd been able to watch it a month ago. I started the first episode. Family wasn't happy that I made them watch it with me. Evidently I'm the only one who cares about clutter at our house. But then again, I knew that already. I think I'm going to make it mandatory viewing. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mama25angels Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 (edited) Ok, our plans changed, I didn't get to hang out with my friend because she went back to sleep so, we'll get to hang out on her next day off. I did go on a ride with Dh and a few of his friends, it was ok. Angi, I'm sorry I missed you!

Junie Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 I am back on my own computer and my own internet. I was in Pennsylvania last weekend to visit Ikslo, but she wasn't there. 😞 I visited my family instead. We actually had a really good visit, including going to my niece's 1st birthday party. I think there were 75 people there. Apparently my dsil has a large (and very tight-knit) family. :svengo: Also, my dad's struggle with Parkinson's is getting worse. 😞 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prairiewindmomma Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Rolls are out of the oven. Guest room (where I escape dh’s snoring) is tidied. The kids’ bathroom has been sanitized. The dishwasher is running and the kitchen has been tidied. I now have four loads of laundry to fold. I am going to pretend that’s romantic and light the fireplace for ambiance (and to keep me warm). 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheres Toto Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 We did our first -all screens off at 8pm- yesterday and it went better than expected. Dh was in a good mood because the Eagles actually managed to win (what a crazy finish that was!), ds and I discussed D&D because we have two info sessions this week to start up a new group, dd did some drawing and talking to friends (actual voice call) in her room. Then dd and I had a really nice chat while waiting for ds to get out of the bathroom when it was supposed to be lights-out at 10pm. So we didn't all actually get into bed until 10:50pm, but we'll get there. Two classes today and tutoring for 30 minutes so this is actually my easiest day this week. I have a full schedule but so far I don't have anyone enrolled for my workshop or KNO so hard to say if they'll actually run. We also have a Winter Weather Advisory for tonight into tomorrow so who knows how that will impact things. I'm already using my make-up week for Thursday afternoon and Friday classes because we had snow the first week of this session. I guess it's not a huge deal if Tuesday classes also use it. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D's couldn't get to sleep last night. It was his first night starting out back in his own room. I was with him and he wasn't scared. He just could.not.sleep. He finally said, "Why are we going to bed so early??" Me: " It's your bedtime, not early." (It was 10pm) D's: "But I don't have a bedtime!" Me: "Yes, you do on school nights. What do you think it means when I say come on, let's go get in bed each night? D's: "Ohhhh! That's a bedtime?" So, we finally got a little sleep. But I didn't sleep well at all, but was too tired to get up, close his window, and get in my own bed. Jean, I'm so glad you are home! Slache, feel better!!

But maybe I would ask why they liked it so much, so that any further recommendations they made in books, I could ask why, and that might give me an idea if I would like the book or not. For instance, I believe I was told that I had to read the Mitford Series, mostly because I had read another similar series and said it was okay. I couldn't get through ten pages of Mitford. Literally read the first few, and handed it back. Nothing wrong with the books or the person who recommended them. We just had radically different tastes in fiction. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The piano movers are coming today. Yay. The kids are happy they have no lessons this week. Their teacher is going to the coast for a week with her son’s family. Yay for Jean making it home safe. Regarding bad books, everyone likes different things. Although I do have certain friends I definitely take recommendations from and friends I definitely don’t.😂 Toto, that was an crazy finish for that game. I was cheering for the Eagles, but I felt soooooo bad for the Bear’s kicker. How could you possibly miss a field goal from that distance?? 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
