J3 is anxious to start homeschooling. Unfortunately we don’t have curriculum for him yet. So his repeated requests to do school are met with a ‘not now, sweetie’ reply.

Obviously this is not sitting well with him.

Today, as he was walking away from me, I heard him mutter“You just want me to be stupid!”

Hard to discipline a bad attitude when you are laughing out loud! 😉 Guess I’d better find some worksheets online to keep him busy! Anyone have a good resource for that?

I’m feeling very discouraged….no, scratch that…I feel very overwhelmed.  I can’t get a a handle on my life right now and it’s too much for me!

I’m the kind of person who enjoys my lists.  They help me know where I am and where I’m going.  Yes, I like maps too – I remember my first Atlas.  I planned many possible lives with that big book.

Some of this is after 1 month with JGirl, I crave a return to a schedule.  But then Eric is still home on break – and as much as I’ll miss him and J3 once school starts again – I’m ready to return to a “normal” schedule again.

My list is overwhelming…

  • Write thank you notes
  • Plan lesson plans for remainder of our school year
  • Follow up on various therapists who have yet to return my call

And, everything is interrupted.  I’ve yet to really finish anything!  Darn, I hate whining…and I really hate it when it’s ME doing the whining!!  I’m sorry!
