Scheduling ~ Lately, my life is pretty crazy.\u00c2\u00a0 Well, crazy for me — the girl who prefers to stay at home and never leave it!\u00c2\u00a0 But as running around also affects the boys and their school time, I have a pretty good excuse to ground myself. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

We have a homeschool park day on Wednesdays from 2-4pm.\u00c2\u00a0 We’ve also been doing a library trip before it at 1pm.\u00c2\u00a0 Sadly, when we get there on time, we are often the only ones there for quite awhile \ud83d\ude41 and due to leaving at 4pm, we are often the first to leave. :(\u00c2\u00a0 But due to Awanas on Wed night, we need to get home to get clean and have dinner.<\/p>\n

So, I’ve decided that I’m only doing appointments (Dr, dental, therapies) on Wednesday mornings.\u00c2\u00a0 Anything else is just too big a disruption to our schooling and my peace of mind.\u00c2\u00a0 That means that Wednesdays will be a ‘lighter’ day of schoolwork too – just Bible & history – the boys will be thrilled! lol<\/p>\n

Hope it helps!!<\/p>\n

Menu planning ~\u00c2\u00a0 Last night I looked up and realized it was 5pm and I didn’t have a clue what we were going to do for dinner.\u00c2\u00a0 I try and try to get fired from this responsibility, but it hasn’t worked.\u00c2\u00a0 Guess I need to make peace and get a plan!<\/p>\n

So, I’m going to create a dinner menu and then go shopping!\u00c2\u00a0 Here’s hoping it works!<\/p>\n

Rambling ~ Being at my SIL’s last week was great on sooo many levels!\u00c2\u00a0 Not only did we get out of our house! ;-)\u00c2\u00a0 but she is FLYing<\/a> and doing a GREAT job of it!\u00c2\u00a0 A great reminder to me that I don’t have to live like this!\u00c2\u00a0 Time to take control of my life again and quit whining!\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 (But I’ll warn you now – if you are looking for me to be an excellent FLYer – you will be disappointed.\u00c2\u00a0 I usually do about 25% of what FlyLady suggests, find peace and ignore the rest.\u00c2\u00a0 But as peace is my goal, I’m happy!)<\/p>\n

Off to make a menu plan and shine my sink!\u00c2\u00a0 TTYL!<\/p>\n
