Our schedule seems to be falling into place. Callie has math in the morning, Brent in the afternoon. We use Math-U-See and this prevents them from needing to watch a DVD at the same time.

9am to noon ~ school
noon to 1pm ~ lunch/break
1 to 3pm ~ school

We've also been adding stuff back into the schedule. Callie is now working on Mondays from 1 to 5pm. This means she will have a couple of hours of school she needs to make up later in the day/week. The kids will be adding rock club back this week. Callie will attend on Tuesday evenings from 5:30 to 7:30pm. Brent will be going on Thursday from 3 to 5pm.

We aren't including PE in these hours. They are doing it after school. PE can be really disruptive, plus when the kids are in sports, that will count as PE and we won't have to have a schedule change.



Right now, because of lack of focus, they are doing their work in the living room. We brought in the folding table from outside. Normally I would have put them in the dining room, but it's under construction. It feels a little crowded. They have desks in their rooms, but have difficulty focusing in there. Here's hoping that after awhile they'll be able to go in there once the routine is established. Next week maybe?

Ever get that feeling that something has got to give?  I'm there.  About a month into the school year and I'm not sure we'll make it with our sanity intact.

Of course, both kids are homeschooled, so that requires planning, teaching, grading etc.  Lots of time.  both kids added athletics; golf and football.  My hubby is the football coach.  Both are Monday through Thursday with Football games on Saturday. There is also Girl Scouts for Callie and myself (a leader, not to my daughter's troop and SU Manager).  Callie attends the local Middle School for two art classes and violin, this is Monday through Friday for 6 hours daily.  And to top it off, we've started attending church 60 miles away.   All this means the next day of doing nothing is very far away.

What is truly amazing is we are pulling it all off with only one vehicle.
