The kids went back to school today so I was able to get a bunch of stuff done while they were away...I took down the Christmas decor, finished the laundry, cleaned up my work area and got ready for my part-time teaching job that starts up again tomorrow, bought myself some new clothes and did the groceries. Then the kids came home, we did homework, made supper, had baths and finally... bedtime. Now the house is quiet and I get some design time!
I teach English as a Second Language to businesses. I have a handful of clients that I meet on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings. I go from workplace to workplace and spend 1 and 1/2 hours with each client. It's good, but I must admit that I would rather be designing! I get design time at night after the kids are in bed and all day Thursday and Friday. Monday is my reset day to get on top of whatever needs my attention.
Full week of school for me (staff went back last Wed., kids came Th/Fri). I suspect it will be a long week. I teach 3-5 year olds in a structured classroom; many of my students have an autism diagnosis. Holidays and breaks are so hard.
My son started his presession class at university. He's not thrilled with 4 hours of lecture a day but it's only for 2 weeks and he'll get three hours of credit.
My daughter (16) and I went for a walk today after I got home. Instead of complaining about how fast she walks -- she's very into fitness -- I just stayed at her pace. My 'comfortable' pace is a 20 minute mile. Today we did 17:30 mile. I'm a little impressed with myself. And then she ruined it by telling me that if I went on The Biggest Loser, I'd cry when they were yelling at me.
I was up late last night because I stayed up to finish a book and then it was so good I couldn't settle down and get to sleep. Going to bed soon so I can rest up for day 2 of this full week.
Well today we basically got barely any of our homeschool work done because I had an epic-style work day full of craziness. Just got back from the grocery store and now finally chilling and trying to get my challenge page for today going
Tomorrow and Thursday are taekwondo, Wednesday is AWANA and date night, and that is about it. We just have to majorly focus and get ourselves caught up with school work after today
