So I managed a run this morning so yay me! :hurray:

I totally lost my stuff and screamed at my kid this morning so very not yay me. :cursing:

 

We are ramping up how much we try to get done each week, and a lot of that includes more reading. The kid loves to read but not to explain what he has just read so if today I can get him to coherent explain back to me a chapter of his book I will have achieved, I think.
