Jan. 4, 2006 - I am sooo not in the mood

It is really time to finish organizing and planning our school thing.  Ugh.  I am not in the mood.  I have reserved (and picked up now) most of the books that we have from the library for our unit.  I have found and picked out devotional topics, etc.  I have NOT however planned out a daily schedule, activities and such. 

With the big move, the end of November through December was jind of hit and miss... I think we did a lot, it just wasn't strictly scheduled, and certainly wasn't all planned out in advance.  I didn't particularly care for it.  I really want to get back in the groove and do things properly this month... this semester.

I have had out my binder and notebook three times now and I just can't seem to even think of what to do.  I am not feeling inspired, and it seems to just make everything harder. 

I suppose what I need to do (knowing me) is make a chart type thing on Word and use that to fill in the blanks and the schedule.  I do so much better with that.  I think I'll set something up liek that today. 

In addition, I want to make a new schedule.  I've started getting up earlier.  Before 7:00 (WOW!) so I want to move our school day up a lot.  I'm going to start getting the kids up 1/2 hour earlier this week (8:30 instead of 9:00) and next week I'll start waking them at 8:00.  Then we can have school started by 9:00.

So, I guess I'd better get busy.. all that talk has inspired me:)
