Jan. 29, 2006 - A View from the Bathroom Floor!
This week has been a slow week that I am glad is finally ended. A nasty little stomach bug took over our house this week and my son, daughter and I all succumbed to it. 
Thankfully the baby and my husband made it through without getting sick. It hit me last Sunday night (why do these things always make their appearance in the middle of the night?) It took until this weekend for my body to finally get back to normal. As I was lying on the bathroom floor Sunday, (it was easier to just stay there than to go back to bed) I realized how much my baseboards needed cleaning. That led me to look around more and soon I discovered a little dust bunny in one corner. I then began to realize that it was definitely time for a good cleaning of the master bath. As I was lying there I thought it was funny how that no matter how awful I am feeling, I still somehow find the mental energy to critique myself! Oh, well. I am a continual work in progress. Oh, and my bathroom did end up getting a really good cleaning.
Actually ALL of the bathrooms got a good cleaning!!!
Since we were sick this past week, we really didn't get much school accomplished. I am still trying to figure out our schedule now that my high school son will be homeschooled. My husband went to the school this week and officially withdrew him. We kept our son's school textbooks and will probably let him finish the year with those since he already has a semester completed with the books. I just need some quiet planning time--does that ever happen? With 3 kids ages 16-6months it seems as if someone is always up. If I get up early then the baby is usually up with me and if I stay up late then my teenager is up. My goal this week is to find some "quiet time" and get some serious planning done.

Hello again! I know what you meen about no quiet time. Someone is always up here at my house. Usually the baby first thing in the morning after my DH leaves for work then they all, one by one begin streaming out of their room. Bedtime is 9pm but the my three year old who constantly wants to be around Daddy will stay up until we (DH and I) turn our light off around 10:30 or 11:00pm. My best bet for quiet planning time is to slip off to the library on a Saturday when DH is home.
