LisaKinVA Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Left for base at 0600. Sent daughter to swim, while I eat breakfast. First Aid/CPR course I am not awake enough for yet starts in an hour. Go home after class... to discover the kitchen a disaster. Piles of clean laundry still stacked in baskets, and no school work completed while I was gone. Yell for the kids to do their chores, and go hide in my room with my dog until I fall asleep, and deal with all of the above...tomorrow. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pink and Green Mom Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Gonna be one of those days. Had to talk DS14 down off the ledge about his AP computer class. He is so stressed out (needlessly, but you can't tell him that). He is needing a lot of hand holding and reassurances today, which is incredibly unlike him. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKL Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 (edited) Happy Wednesday! Yesterday evening was stressful until we were finally sitting in our seats in the stadium. Then I was like "now I can relax." But toward the end of the game, one of the kids had an asthma attack. She didn't have her inhaler. I have never actually had to deal with an asthma attack before. Luckily, there was a first aid station nearby and they hooked her up to a nebulizer. This delayed my getting the kids home until 10:30-11:30, on a school night. Oops. Also there were some tears about some girl/boy drama to which I was not privy. I was not expecting tears on our outing, but these were also bonding moments, so I guess it was good in the big picture. My kids are blessed to have some nice friends. (They do a LOT of screaming though!) So today I need to catch up on the work I was too tired to remember last night. (Also our house guest left early this morning, so that will be another load off my mind. To be able to bang around in my own house, call my kids names (like "butt cheek"), leave the table messy, and get my coffee without taking a shower first ... priceless.) Done: Kid 1 up at 5:30 to do homework. Kid 2 up at 7. Made breakfast, then reviewed homework, made corrections. Kids had to run for the bus stop because I did not realize our kitchen clock is slow. (Usually it's fast.) Coffee! Also chocolate! Took out the garbage, retrieved & processed the mail. Cleaned kitchen, bathrooms, and some clutter. Cleaned the van and part of the garage. Several texts and a facebook post about personal / kid plans. Caught up on emails, news, social media. To do: Lots of work! Deadlines are rapidly approaching. Fed-Ex stop. A little exercise, reading, maybe a load of laundry. Bills, filing, calendar. Schedule appointments - chiro for me, dental for all 3 of us. I can't believe it's already 3 months into the year! 1 kid has horse riding - other kid is taking the night off to study. I should probably cook dinner tonight. We have eaten out for the whole past week. Help kids with homework. Read-aloud. Whatever else gets done.

MysteryJen Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Down and back to faraway tennis courts. ds3 talked me into Chick-Fil-A for lunch. And dropped off a return package. Read and write for the afternoon, plus some general chores/straightening, putting things away. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
readinmom Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Morning, all! I think I'm having a reaction to something, red and itchy, welty hives on stomach and legs. Called dr office, didn't seem too concerned. Off to buy Benadryl and some other staples, and maybe some dye free laundry soap for now. Yuck. To do: CVS groceries for my mom, visit home to read, relax, etc. focus on not scratching...:) Have a great day! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKL Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Well, despite a relatively strong start, today has been largely a bust. I got a bad headache, probably due to drinking less coffee than I've become used to. Also, I my kitchen sink drain is completely blocked. I tried for a long time to un-block it, but no dice. I called the plumber, and hope he can come tomorrow. Not having a kitchen sink sucks in so many ways. Having a house that smells like Drano isn't much better. I don't think I did any "work" work so far. Of course the night is still young - if this headache goes away, I could get some out overnight. The kids are still doing their homework. I hope they go to bed at a decent hour tonight. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
