It's Only Wednesday?!

This has been the longest 3 days! It feels like it should be Friday. Today was the first full day of school we got in all week, and it was a workout.

Monday was Poogie's birthday, so I didn't make her do school, and TT only did the basics. That afternoon we had a homeschool skating party, so that sealed the deal. Then Tuesday my hubby came home for only that day before he had to leave again. So, I gave the kids the morning off to be with their dad. We took Poogie to Red Robin's, her choice of places to eat for her b-day, then off to the YMCA. The kids we so happy to be back and to see their friends. We were also blessed that Poogie's best buddy could join the class. She was so happy.

After the Y we were off to ballet class, followed by a delightful supper from a drive-thru window. We arrived home and Poogie blew out the candles on her ice cream birthday cake. Whew! And that was only Tuesday.

Today I was met with groans and complaints that I requested that both Tuesday and Wednesdays work could be completed. It wasn't that much because we haven't started all subjects yet. But to hear my ds tell it I was being the wicked witch. Well, the work got done, and I even planned out two weeks of lessons for TT. I will work on Poogie's Friday. I am trying to free up my weekend to be with the kids and to take Poogie to "Be a Ballerina" day at her dance school. At least I have a plan;)

I am trying to enjoy teaching TT but math is just not letting that happen. The further we get into MUS Epsilon the more I dread math every day. I just don't like how the lessons are presented and the skills are taught. I wish we could order Teaching Textbooks so I could have a little break from the stress. But, I will just have to wait.
