This weekend was a nice 48 hours. The kids got their second shots on Saturday afternoon , and felt fine through Sunday. We watched some new episodes of Craig of the Creek (the third season just arrived on HBO Max) and went to bed early.
This morning I got some work done while the kids played video games. Then we played an great game of The Floor is Lava that we invented. It was super fun.
After our game, I made two weeks worth of pumpkin pancakes while the kids prepped their lunches.
This afternoon my daughter went to a birthday party downtown and my son went to his grandparents’ house. While they were gone, my husband and I talked finances, and upped our kids’ 529 contributions. We also finalized the Christmas present lists and worked out. I also spent over an hour in the backyard reviewing forms for my belt test. At this point I think I’m pretty much prepped out. I need to write my own personal one steps but after that I’m going to have to call it. My brain just can’t handle any more.
And in 48 hours it will be over. The test starts at 5:30pm on Tuesday and is supposed to be done by 8pm but will probably go much later. I’m just hoping we’ll be done by 9pm. It’s going to be a LOOONG night.
But then it will be over! I’m trying to focus on how good I’m going to feel when it’s over. So, so good.
Have set my alarm to start cheering for you tomorrow night.
I believe you are going to do wonderfully but hope you also have fun!
What a lovely weekend you had. It sounds like magic compared to 5 years ago. Your children are responding to alol the work and love you have poured into them. You have learned so much over the past decade…. and in sharing you give me hope and remind me that I too have learned and grown. THANK YOU.
