SKL Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Not sure how I feel about this day yet. Kid and I went to bed around midnight AGAIN. Well, it was her birthday so I let a lot of things slide. But still. Set alarm for 3am, 4am, finally got up around 5am to do some work. Sent out AHG newsletter & am close to finishing one client report. Got kid 1 up at 5:45 to finish homework & study. Kid 2 up at 6:45. Drove kids to school for Power of the Pen (7:45 meeting). Kid 1 was still finishing homework in the car until 8am. Drove home and discovered kid 1 left her homework in the car after all that work. Drove back and asked office staff to deliver the homework. This is about the nicest thing I've ever done for my kids. ? Finally home after an hour of driving ... cleaned kitchen & made coffee. Caught up on social media, news, work emails etc. Taking a break as I work out how to solve a work problem. To do: Lots more work. Print volunteer sheets for scouts. Bills. Pack scout stuff. Pick up kids after volleyball practice, grab food, and take them to scouts. Hopefully work while scouts is in session. Kids' homework and such. Kids to bed. Work or sleep. Right now I am tempted to take a nap! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Thanks for starting the thread, Selkie! I was so busy with all the little bedtime chores last night that I forgot to start one. School costco spend time reading the materials on bylaws that I printed out. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selkie Posted October 11, 2018 Author Share Posted October 11, 2018 Did office work all afternoon. I swear, at least once a year US Cellular sends us a bill that is about 3x our normal monthly rate, and then it requires at least an hour on the phone to get it straightened out. So annoying. Making dinner now. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pink and Green Mom Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Good evening! I had to sub today (PE - played 7 hours of kickball in the 95 degree heat and humidity), and then after school started tutoring a 7th grader that I used to tutor in math a few years ago. Suddenly, it is 6:45 pm. Still to do: -dinner (shishkabob, sadly the grill broke so now I have to cook it indoors) -come up with some study skills/organization solutions for the boy I'm tutoring -do a load (or two) of laundry -figure out what I'm wearing tomorrow (wasn't planning on having to sub 5 days in a row and am running out of work-approrpriate attire) -read over DS14's paper that is due Monday 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MysteryJen Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Well, ds3 lost which is a bummer. But he had a great season and gained a ton of experience. I am almost ready to start with homeschooling- so that is my accomplishment for the week. I am waiting for a crowd of kids and have pizza in the oven. Have a great night! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKL Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Well, I am excited that Miss A gets to have about 7 hours of sleep tonight (assuming she stays in bed). It is the first time in too many days. She was so sleepy at scouts. I just sent out a report that took a lot longer than I expected. I think I will go to bed now and get up early to get more work out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
