A Little Venting

Ugh.  Seriously.  When will the craziness end?

I thought it would calm down a little once we got Megan's party over with, but it seems to be just as busy as ever!

This week is shaping up to be a fairly busy one, and I don't really see it slowing down.

It is frustrating to feel like I can't really get into the schedule that I had hoped to by this point.  It feels like there is always SOMETHING to interfere with having regular chores or study time.  I think this is a prime example of why homeschooling might not be a great fit for me.  There is seriously a lack of discipline in my home.  Apparently if I am not accountable to the state for getting my kids to school, it will not happen.

Oh well.  I'm exhausted, and emotional, so it's obviously time for bed.  Here's hoping for some calm tomorrow!

Okay, you just sang my song. FOR REAL!! I had high hopes to be this awesome mom and have kids turn off tv, do chores and some schooling and then play the rest of the day. Too many things get in the way and we have no real schedule. I've been trying to bike to the library for almost a week now. There's always tomorrow....

which is what I seem to be saying everyday.

There are always exceptions to every rule. So maybe it would be best to set the "schedule" but understand it has to be flexible.

I hear you, I can't even seem to find the time to get my house picked up, do dishes, laundry, so how can I expect my kids to keep up on their chores and school stuff.

Hey YOU:) Just remember the huge life changing thing that you committed to last week and be gentle with yourself:) Things will always get in the way, but don't worry about what did or didn't happen yesterday, just pick up and start today knowing that you are AMAZING!!! Summer will always be crazy....get the schedule in where you can and then just let the other stuff happen around it. I totally slacked last week with the whole "giving up Coke thingy"....this week seems to be a little more what I had hoped for...but who knows what tomorrow will bring.....deep breath....you can do it!!!
