Making Resolutions
Well, here I am, another school year for the 'lets starting. Every year, I have these big grandiose plans for the school year, both for the kids and the house. I try to get in the habit of doing things I should be doing on a daily basis, like, oh....going to work and cleaning the house, heh.
Today was the first 1/2 day of school, and the older 3 went. Neeker didn't go, because she's in the afternoon kindergarten, and the am kindergarten went today. She starts tomorrow, so I thought it would be a grand idea to spend the day snuggled up with her watching cartoons all morning. :) It was nice, the last time for a while we'll be able to do that. She starts the "Kindergarten Crew" tomorrow as well, which is the district's daycare program, it starts when the school day starts, and they get her to her kindergarten room when that starts, all I have to do is send her off in the morning with the older kids, and be here when they all flood back into the house, heh.
And it's after school that the planning has begun. When they get home, they've got 1/2 hour till they need to do thier homework. 1/2 hour for homework, and we all do our chores. Then dinner. Then about an hour till showers and then bed.
Will it work? I've no idea. :)

only a half hour for homework??
I wonder if TJ's just dawdling... no, he actually does a lot of his homework in school, but he still needs about 1.5 hours a day.
Oh my God! Hmm... I'll really have to keep an eye on what they've got and waht they have to do. I know they had a study period last year, and they did a lot of the stuff they would have had for homework then.
It's just sucky, because we've really only got 5 hours a day together, and quite a bit of that is eaten up with dinner and chores and whatnot, so there's not much time to actually spend *together*, you know?
