Critterfixer Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Good morning! It's about the first--everyone have their resolutions written down somewhere to forget about them later? I do! Whole two pages of what I'd like to do. What will probably happen is that I'll do just what I can manage and nothing else, and that's fine. Today: Finish a novel (first draft) and tuck it away for later, read over my edit letter from my agent for the third time and set up a document to start working on some of the big picture questions, read through the rest of my critiques for the week and get two of them completed, read through my edited MS and start thinking about how to approach some of the more difficult emotion work, and cook hamburgers. I think I can handle all that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommyof1 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Busy day today. DD6 wanted to visit her friends this morning at the grocery store. Then church playing with her friends after service. Lunch with Daddy at work. The park and the library finding kids to play with there to. Just letting her have lots of time away from home and with other kids. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Critterfixer Posted December 31, 2018 Author Share Posted December 31, 2018 Good morning! Not too much going on here today. I have writing and reading to do, some housekeeping and some cooking. The boys have relaxing and entertaining themselves to take care of, and they generally do a pretty good job with both. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommyof1 Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 Good Morning All! Happy New Years Eve! My DD6 is up and watching her favorite "Kids Baking Challenge " and playing with her new play doh. Regular school day. Phonics, reading, writing, math, calendar, weather and Bible. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsRobinson Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 Lol on the new years resolutions, Critter! 😄 I don't even call them that anymore because it seems so synonymous with failure. I try to set a few goals that actually really should happen. I don't want to look back at my 2018 list at all. I know I failed miserably! 😥 Several of those goals are in progress, just not yet completed. So I might make my 2019 list today without looking at 2018, knowing some of the goals are the same but that's okay. Sometimes things just take longer than you anticipated, right? We are starting regular school back up today with a late start. We are moving slowly this morning and I have a few errands to run and I just want to get them over with so we'll do those first today. Highly unorthodox! 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Critterfixer Posted January 1, 2019 Author Share Posted January 1, 2019 Afternoon! I was going to say morning, but that came and went. Writing today, and catching up on some things before I talk with my agent tomorrow about tackling revisions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommyof1 Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 DD6 is still having a great time with her play doh kitchen thing. She spent most of the morning playing with it. Then she spent time cutting cardboard for a costume and painting it. She spent time reading to me and asked if she can have this day off. Helped her make homemade cookie treats. Family game time and movie night. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Critterfixer Posted January 2, 2019 Author Share Posted January 2, 2019 Good morning. We're going to try to get math and Latin done today, Thursday and Friday, and then get back into a full schedule. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrsRobinson Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Well, there was a family crisis on Monday so no school work got done. It poured over into yesterday, so no school work got done. As a result of this life junk, I could not sleep at all last night. I think I got 2 hours of sleep. Maybe. 😰 So of course, I am exhausted, have a headache, and my eyes burn. But I'm gonna get another cup of coffee, be the adult, and restore some normalcy here. We all need it. So we will be doing some school work no matter what! Pencil to paper! Then I'm going to take a nap this afternoon! Lol! 😴 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was up at four with an upset stomach, but I'm better tonight, just really tired. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrsRobinson Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 I did sleep much better last night, thanks Critter! 😊 Today's plan: put chicken thighs in the crock pot, drop dh off at work, bank, quick grocery store run, prep food for my volunteer thing, drop off prepped food, pick up dh from work, do some light school with the kids, prep for long medical appointment day tomorrow, get to bed early. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critterfixer Posted January 4, 2019 Author Share Posted January 4, 2019 Oh, I'm tired. I wrote, I gathered previous drafts for revision work next week, I did a critique, and picked up another possible reader for a first draft, networked, and now I just want to eat dinner and go to bed. The boys did Latin and half a math lesson today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommyof1 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Yesterday she did do some school. Calendar, weather, Bible and memory verse and she read to me. We also listened to an audiobook in the car. At bedtime she had read aloud and then audiobook. Today, DH took the car. Calendar, weather, emergency contacts and videos on YouTube about 911/emergency situations. Discussion about ER situations here at home. So far. Still need to do Bible story, memory verses review, poems to remember, her read to me and Ray's Arithmetic. Clean up the place Go for a walk Play games Do laundry 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
