After my first day meltdown I rearranged a few things and it is going much better. Yesterday we even took a trip to our local library to pick up books to go along with our science topic, cells.
I worked with Poogie first yesterday and then TT. Today I did the opposite. I think I will have to start with TT and then work with Poogie while he is doing independent work. He just has so much more to do and yesterday he didn't finish until around 2:30. That is late for us.
Today went well. The only downside was that the phone rung every ten minutes. Mostly my mom called and it is really distracting to the kids. If I don't answer she just comes over since she lives next door. Today she needed my help because she was getting cable hooked up, but it is always something. I was planning on using a system of colored pages hanging on my door. If the red sheet is up we are working, do not disturb. If green is up come on over.
Our situation is really hard because I live next door to both my widowed mother and father in law. They are both elderly and demand a lot of time. I have been trying to get my mom involved in activities at the local senior citizens center. They would come and get her and everything (she doesn't drive). But no she would rather I entertain her. Which is fine but I feel very overwhelmed right now and fear I will have a major meltdown if this year continues like last year did.
Anywho, tomorrow I get my permanent choppers. I want to take pics and post the before and after on my blog. Hmm, I might even make a sushi run after my appointment. That sounds so yummy right now.
My sinuses have been going crazy and they have taken over my taste buds. I can't really taste anything that isn't spicy. So of course I want to eat unhealthy things. I haven't gained any more weight but I haven't lost any either. Only 5 more pounds and I will have reached my goal. Darn sinuses.
