Well, the first break do the year is officially over. It helps that the kids only have three weeks of school (and I only have four) before the biggest break of the year.
On the docket today…
Put ornaments on the tree. I put up the tree two days ago. It’s tied to the wall in five places. It has lights on it and it’s zip tied to a small table. So far the kittens have not gone after it too much. We plan on putting minimal ornaments up – nothing breakable and nothing low on the tree). I actually think it will be okay, and that I’ll get my Christmas tree this year after all. That would make me very happy.
Grade papers and plan. I actually graded the tests at the zoo yesterday while my son and his friend ran around the playground (multitasking FTW!), but I need to finalize the scores and enter them. I also need to score the reading reflections, which will take a lot longer. Luckily I already planned out the next four weeks of my 1A class. If I plan just one week of my 1B and Exploratory classes I will be feeling pretty good.
Finish sorting photos for calendar. I have gone through all the photos from December 2021 to July 2022. That means I only have four months to go. If I can get through the rest of what I have, and upload the folder to Shutterfly, I’ll be pretty happy. I also have to think about ornaments. There are a lot to make this year, one commemorating our cat. One celebrating our new kittens. And the regular one of the family for the year.
Run or workout. I would love to run, but if I go on the elliptical I can work on photo stuff so that might happen instead. There will not be time to run this week after work though, so I will try to get out today.
Laundry and chores. I have a couple loads of laundry to do. And some chores. The kids also have chores. I’m glad we don’t have much planned today, because we’re all pretty wiped from the sleep overs and we’re all kind of dreading tomorrow. If get out for one walk I think that will be enough to get through the day.
Of course right now this is happening, which makes everything else impossible (I’m typing this post on my phone).Maybe I can check out ornaments on the Shutterfly app at least…
What do you have planned this for Sunday?
What a great week! Hope today (Monday) started with a good night of sleep. So glad you had the one set of classes planned through til Holiday break already. It is a lot of work to to put together so many different classes.
Thank you for the pictures of the Christmas tree. Spirit lifting.
The kittens are growing SO fast.
