first day without school

I got up this morning and decided to actually put some time into cleaning my room. Over the last couple of months, I start cleaning in the kitchen, and maybe finish that and the living rooms before I'm too exhausted. The next day I have to start all over, so I never got to my own room.
So I straightened up and vacuumed my room. I tossed all of my school papers and picked out books to donate (my shelves were overflowing), then I folded some of the kids clothes. They all took other bags/baskets of clean clothes since I hadn't gotten around to folding them--those are now on their floors (I fold them because there's a better chance they'll end up in a dresser that way). I still have about a bajillion loads of laundry to do. Okay, it's more like eight, but by then the girls will have a full load dirtied up. Ugh. The rest of the house is a mess and smells gross for some reason.
I had to go see my eye doctor at 1pm to recheck my eyes--I have chronic dry eyes which has been causing me issues. They feel so much better since I started on the prescription she gave me. I had no idea my eyeballs weren't supposed to be glued to my eyelids when I woke up, or that my vision wasn't supposed to be so blurred in the morning I couldn't see for five minutes. Crazy!
Now I'm at Shari's having lunch. I'm kind of lost without the threat of deadlines and assignments to do. I should probably be writing.
Oh, while I was cleaning my room, Jack came in to tell me about some Minecraft video he watched. After about five minutes, I realized I didn't have to tell him to leave me alone because I had homework to finish. I told him that, and he got all excited. He gave me a huge hug. Now I just have to convince him that I can't watch him play Minecraft because it makes me sick.

Date: 6 May 2015 10:25 pm (UTC)I know for ages after I finished college I would dream about missing deadlines (or showing up for the exam when I didn't know I was in the class!)
Elijah and I have been talking about me going back to school. I have my undergrad but I didn't get it in what I wanted, so I'm thinking a post-bacc and then onto grad school. That probably won't happen for another two years (he's finishing up his doctorate so right now our finances are tied up there), so I'm going to start doing some of my own refresher stuff. Benefit of homeschooling, I know where to find the good curriculum LOL.
