I don't know why exactly, but this has felt like an off day.  I think I may have a mild stomach bug, and that is not helping.  I haven't felt like doing anything, although somehow I still managed to get three meals on the table, and the laundry started, as well as school.

This morning, both kids were either arguing with each other or fighting doing their lessons.  I was at a loss knowing what to do with them until just before lunch.  I had a long talk with Belle, and a shorter one with Boo about attitudes and being nice, and things turned around.  But by then I wasn't feeling happy.

The afternoon lessons went well, and we got done really early for a change.  But then I was at loose ends for an hour.  I got the laundry sorted and started, and then finally sat down to do a bit of cross-stitch.  I really enjoyed that, but then didn't feel like getting supper.

When I did manage to get going on making the soup, Belle made biscuits, almost all by herself.  That was a big help, and it was nice to have company in the kitchen.

I haven't been for a walk in weeks.  I haven't been waking up early enough in the morning to go, and the weather has been lousy or my friend has been busy in the evenings.  I think I am going to have to do something about that and soon!  If I don't go out tonight I will make a point of going in the morning even if it means we have to start later on our lessons.

Time to get the kids to bed, and then we'll see if a walk happens.
