SKL Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Could we postpone Monday? I am tired and behind on my work. I don't want to Monday. I suppose it will end up being a typical Monday ... I'm kind of stressed out about some conference calls and deadlines ... I'm up right now because of new work I didn't expect and laundry for the kids' Monday gym bags ... but I really need some sleep. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homeschoolmama37 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Monday not so hot here. I didn't sleep well, my stomach was hurting. Finally fall asleep only to be awakened by college son coming in the door at 2am. Husband's alarm went off at 3am and woke me up too. Finally rolled out of bed at 8:30am. Behind on my lesson plans, behind on my biology class, printer not working, still nursing a cup of tea, not showered or dressed. What happened to my weekend? You'd think after 11 years of homeschooling I'd have this down. Monday, you stink. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKL Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Well I got the kids off to school and went back to bed. Now I am really behind. I am "managing" my stress by lying to myself saying "I don't care." Ha! I started taking a B12 supplement in addition to my D3 supplement in the hope that I get some of my mojo back. I hope to do a little yoga also. Somehow between trying to catch up on a list of deadlines - or at least send out enough stuff for the clients to be somewhat appeased .... Kids have gymnastics tonight. It will be great if I can walk while they are in class, but I might not even be able to justify leaving my work to drive them there. I hope that after all my vitamins and coffee kick in, I'll feel more positive. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted October 30, 2017 Author Share Posted October 30, 2017 Arranged my “new†sparkling silverware drawer. Kitchen- unloaded and put away contents. Loaded dishwasher though it isn’t full enough to run yet. Laundry- Folded two loads of laundry. Ran one load in washing machine. School/ grading- graded algebra and biology. Dh’s account was hacked at work and I accidentally opened some emails he “sent “ me. So I ran Malwarebytes and got rid of a Trojan.

SKL Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Well, I do seem to feel better than I felt on my last post. I lived through the conference call - my lack of forward motion on that project was attributed to the client who failed to get me some info, so nobody really cares at this moment ... I sent out most of what I felt was really important to send today. I might have time to do one more project before leaving for gymnastics. That ought to keep my biggest clients happy for another day. :P Oh but one kid says she is sick and dying. So I am probably going to leave her home, since I don't think she would want to go walking with me in the rain .... The kids have a relatively small homework load tonight, yay! They planned to watch a movie in their free time, which I think is fine. It's so rare for them to have free time on a week night. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted October 30, 2017 Author Share Posted October 30, 2017 School is finished. Grocery shop finished. Made green smoothies for snack. Now I'm going to do another kitchen - laundry - paperwork (instead of school or grading) round robin. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mom31257 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Dh got picked for the jury, so at least I won't have to get up early on the days he has to go there instead of school. It's a real pain for him, though, because he has an academic team meet Wednesday afternoon, and he has no assistant coach. His school is on block scheduling, so missing one day is really missing two. He teaches US History and Econ. These are both the social studies subjects students have to pass end of course tests in to graduate in our state, so missing any amount of time is not good. I've been prepping for math tutoring, and we watched the 2nd episode of Stranger Things 2. I've got to get some tidying done before my students come in the morning at 9:30, so that may happen in the morning. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
