HUH!!!!!

In order to prepare the twins for homeschooling I have been trying to get them to do a little bit of work every day. In workbooks from school last year and workbooks I have bought them. It has been a struggle and only makes me wonder what our year will bring. Today Steven did okay except he seems to think he's the boss. And Baileigh acted as if she was braindead. Se have a slightly busy schedule. Most Monday's should be free, today we had Drs. appts. Tuesday we have Reese and Ella, so I don't know if anything will get done on that day. Weds. we have horse riding lessons until it gets cold out. Thursdays we have counseling in Mt. Sterling. And we normally have in home counseling two days a week. So our school has to be worked around all these things. I want to do fun things but the core things need to get done. Hopefully as we get going they will get used to it and do better.

Where does a Grandma go for a day off?

Don't take me wrong, I'm all for our homeschooling plans. It's just that sometimes, after a week like this when we've been going, going, all week long, I am totally wiped out. I want to sit and read my book and maybe go to bed early. But there's still supper to be made, and the dishes are overflowing, and so is the laundry. And they need done tonight beause tomorrow we're going to Chuckee Cheese to meet up with my brother and, and Tyler and Apryl too, which will be cool, but more driving which exhausts me. And Saturday we're supposed to go see Dana in Quincy. More driving for me. I'm sure I'll feel better after a good night's sleep but right now I just need a break. :)
