Back to our regularly schedule program :)

Yesterday we were back to our normal school schedule, almost. We normally go to the library on a Mon, so we had 2 days worth of stuff in 1 day. Here's how it went. 7:40 we take dh to work. Arrive at dh work at 8am. Head home and arrive at 8:20. 2 dd's have breakfast and watch Clifford. Ds plays more on computer. Then 9am we start out devotional.

We then do our normal Mon stuff while mom showers. Head to library, with a brief stop at the cleaners to take dh and R's suit jacket to get cleaned, then head to library. Leave library around 1:30 and head to lunch then home. Suddenly the day is now Tues and we haven't even slept yet lol. Although Tues is still looking a lot like Mon in that I let the girls watch school videos and then head outside for exercise. Around 4:30 we head out to pick up dh from work. Arrive home at 5:30 in time to fix dinner and for R to shower.

6:40 we all head to the church for various reasons. R has scouts or combined meeting with the young women. I have 3 things happening, 1- quick visiting teaching, 2-showing one of the sisters at church how to use the computer to do the visiting teaching report each month and 3- teach some sign language to a few sisters. WHEW! It all turned out well, busy, but well.

R is still recovering from his toe incident. Not sure if I reported this or not the other day, but as we were cleaning the lawn so dh could mow, we were scooping up wet mucky leaves and dumping them into the garbage can in the garage. I wasn't in the garage at the time. I was busy picking up all the rakes and bowls we had used. By the time I get in the house, R is putting on a bandage on his toes. He then tells me what happened. As he was taking the liner out of the metal garbage can, the liner came out suddenly and the can fell straight on to his toe OUCH!! It now has a big bruise under the nail. It looks like it has a good chance of falling off, or definitely coming apart as it grows outward. Poor kid is LOVING the attention. He hobbled into the library and one of the librarians asked what was wrong. He then told her his story. He loves it. Same thing at church lol. I think it was worth the sore for the attention lol.

Today we have somewhat normal school day. But after lunch the girls and I will be headed to the park for park day. Our homeschool group meets every Wed afternoon to let the kids work off some steam. This lets the moms have time to chat and get to know each other. So far it's been very well attended. This will be our 4th park day this yr. Last yr we didn't start going until June, but N has been wanting to go so bad so we do. Good exercise so why not. Let's just hope for continued good weather.
