What do you do when:
your brain is fried?
your younger set of children are yelling at each other?
your older set of children are insulting one another?
you have stacks of books and papers all over the bedroom?
your carpet hasn’t been vacuumed in three months because there’s no room between the piles to fit the vacuum?
(home)school has been officially in session for three days, and you’re already feeling behind?
Well, I blog, of course. (Now you know why the quality of these posts is sometimes less than stellar.)
Or read.
Or play Multi-8. (I don’t win because I can’t spell when my brain is mush, and that’s the only time I play.)
Or eat chocolate.
Or go buy more curriculum (this afternoon).
I might do all of the above at the same time or in succession. Or I might just go to bed.
It’s not as bad as it sounds. After all, as Scarlett was so fond of saying, “Tomorrow is another day.”
You make me laugh!!! ME? I blog too or read!!! It IS too productive!!! (I have to practice that response for my huband!!)
Oh, I am so glad I’m not the only one who has days like this!
Assign each older child a younger child to entertain. Those that decline or fail their mission get to tidy up and vacuum the bedroom while you eat chocolate and blog.
