Coding at midnight
I’m really tired tonight. I was working with my oldest son until 10:00 on HTML coding. I’m having to learn these things along with him since I’m so behind on my computer knowledge!
Got my workout in today. Maybe that’s why I’m so tired. This gym class is called “cardio combat”-go figure. My legs will probably be screaming at me in the morning!
It’s midnight, and I may call it an early one for me after I catch up on world news. Wonder if former Secretary Clinton will run for president in the next round? Groundhog Day approaches..
Schooling on a Saturday night
Schooling on a Saturday night..sounds like some really bad country music song.
Yes, that’s what we did tonight after our daily activities were finished. Lots of my kids’ friends have had the last few days off from school for various reasons but not so for my kids. I taught all week, even today, and will likely tomorrow as well. The holidays are quickly approaching which I know from personal experience will throw major interruptions into our academic schedule. The breaks are welcomed by all of us, including me, but because of the breaks, we have to double or triple up on what we need to cover. If I only had one or even two kids to teach, it wouldn’t be quite the juggling act that I’m doing, but such is not the case. Homeschooling is exhausting.
Another exhausting day
Mother’s day tea, probability, fractions, operations, took lunch and a birthday present to my girlfriend, technology lessons, logic, critical thinking, poetry, art history, spelling with SWR, money, independent reading, matter, Paul Bunyan, team gymnastics, and more travel soccer try-outs. It’s been a full and somewhat stressful week. I may hibernate this weekend!
An honest stressor for me at this point in motherhood-not having a clear, defined path of interest for my oldest kid. I hear parents talk about their child wanting to do a certain “thing” from an early age. I don’t have that feedback from my son yet, and it bothers me. I know it shouldn’t, but admittedly, it does. Need quiet time to calm my anxiety..
