Morning. It's an actual morning, too, which is nice, and not a dark, cold night that is pretending to be a morning.

Today's goals: 

House: chores, cleaning one room

Garden: transplant bloodroots to larger pots, water plants if if gets warm and sunny enough.

Cooking: grilling hamburgers

Writing: revise two chapters in one project, one in another, draft a chapter in another.

Art: meeting with art teacher today, start two projects (a flower and a landscape)

Good morning!  I was not ready to fall back. Dh gets up at 5 on Sundays, which means he was wide awake at 4.  Sadly, I have already drank more than enough coffee for a reasonable person to have, and may end up in the 'wildly overcompensating' category in this area by the end of the day.  It is going to be rough.

On the schedule:

• 10 minutes tidy in each room
• Physics lab from last week
• Laundry
• Prep the bathroom for repainting.

Morning, y'all!  Hope all's well as can be. 

Last week was mainly me trying not to get migraines.  Which was successful.  I'd hoped to be out of those woods, but nope, oh well.  & I am well and truly a mess: depressed, migraine-y, the house is a disaster mostly 'cause all my housework went into boxing stuff up everything we don't need in the next month for the work on the house which, I learned Friday, won't be happening until January at the soonest. 

That's the local hard stuff.  The good: DH & I are strong and the boys are well.  Yay! 

This week:

1. Get this house clean & sustainable.  Oy vey.
2. Clean yard so it doesn't put me in mind of a junkyard.  Some of the stuff belongs to the work crew.  Who won't be back until Jan.  Oy vey, again.
3. Daily yoga, aerobics, strength for me to up my mental health and prevent migraines.
4. Daily runs + DareBee for boys.
5. School.  Oy vey the third.  Basics: Latin, math, read-alouds, online classics, poetry memorization, artist & composer study, independent reading. 

Hope the wrist is better, @Critterfixer!  And that this week, despite the fall-back start, goes well for you, @HomeAgain!

Morning. It's raining--a cold, pattering rain that feels like it should be sleet, only couldn't make up its mind.

Today's goals:

House: chores, clean sheets and sweep house

Cooking: steaks, probably some potatoes, corn, broccoli.

Gardens: none

School: usual

Writing: more revisions. I would like to hit at least 45K by the weekend in revised words.

Evening! 

Today saw: grocery shopping; piano, Latin & reading for younger; online coursework for elder; Anki all around. 

The house is majorly more-organized than at the beginning of the week.  Legos have been cleared to make space for desks &c.  Hurrah! 

And fitness happened for boys.  I have some strength & yoga to do before bed and if I keep it up the insomnia should be better soon.  🙂 

good luck on revisions, Critterfixer!
