Lookie what I found to go with our coffee this morning!!! It's early# for this much sugar, maybe, but sometimes sacrifices must be made. I, for one, am up to the challenge.
I started this post early... and like everything else I've attempted this week, I ran off leaving it uncompleted 'til I found another spare minute.
You know how those weeks are sometimes?
I have this big ol' plans and all the gumption to follow thru, but none of the time to accomplish it. Adding another hour to each day might help, but I really need two extra days in the week. You know?
What's filling my time is HOMEWORK*. The sports things wrapped up. Dash had an undefeated soccer season in his recreational league. Bear advanced one game into the football playoffs. Cam still has one last soccer game this weekend, but I didn't even think of taking him to practice last night... well, 'cause I was at Bear's band concert. We have a couple parties left to attend. That football team, especially, got really tight. They're sad to see the end of the season.
As I was saying... one thing done, another to jump into... being Homework. Teacher's are posting missing assignments online and we have one more week of the trimester to get those in. Turns out our boys are master procrastinators and even better at deflecting attempts to get them on task. I'm seeing some SKILLS, I tell ya. I'd be awed and inspired if I wasn't pulling my hair out.
Besides the awesome beginning band concert last night**, I was also assisting in speech prep, multiplying and dividing mixed fractions, re-learning where apostrophes go***, practicing handwriting & finishing Hugo Cabret.
I'm not steaming mad or anything. (A little sugar might help right about now, hey?)
It feels good to vent about that, honestly... publicly. Lol. But now I don't feel like announcing my Big News of the week. It'll have to wait for another post. Actually, I have lots of Big News's.^^ The smallest bit of Big News is that I updated my About tab to include stuff I learned about in PJ's Blogging 101 class yesterday. It's amazing how many things there are to blogging. It's amazing how confidently I barrel forward while missing so many key things. *shrug* If I waited to perfect things before doing them, I'd never get anywhere, right? That's my policy and I'm stickin' to it! Mistakes, here I come!! There's only so many hours in a day, so we're workin' with what we got! Hey... ho!!!^^^
#It really was early when I wrote that. Hours and hours ago.
##I don't actually run. *snort*
###Although it's obvious it's not, otherwise more words would've happened!
*I'm making a point. Hang on a sec, I'll get to it.
** :-D
***I love apostrophe's. I tend to add extra for good' measure in odd place's.
^ So much for thinking!
^^Apostrophe addition all mine!
^^^ *cough* This is intended to be shouted at enthusiastic volume. Try it. It's fun!! "HEY- HO!!" Makes ya feel better, too. Like you're onto some discovery or making real progress. Just don't let yourself know it's an allusion 'cause this is NOT them moment for a reality check. Which means, I can pretend to have that apple thing for breakfast. Ha!
