I was up too early this morning, but then, so was Thomas. He certainly hasn’t developed the habit of sleeping in on weekends….
MoreStarted off my day at 6 as usual. We had the last schoolday of the week, which was good. Well, the last formal schoolday. There are always learning opportunities. Meanwhile, one of our landscapers was here, planting a few things and hauling compost to my new raised beds out front. ...
MoreI slept soundly until 6 or so and then got back to things. As usual, writing for the two sites where I’m having stuff published daily, plus managing morning schoolwork, took me until about lunchtime….
MoreNow I seem to be wired to wake up at 5:30, eek. I expect this won’t last, though….
MoreOddly enough, this morning it was Dana who was wide awake at 5:30. So we had a bit of time together before the kids woke up. ...
More6AM came too quickly this morning. I wasn’t really ready to get up, but I knew the kids wouldn’t let me sleep. Sure enough, they started rising shortly after I did….
MoreMuch of today went for additional work on the giant play structure. I got it leveled, added a few more structural members, and attached the ladder, slide, and climbing wall. It only took two more trips to the hardware store (one with Thomas along, who was quite excited about riding in the truck) to get that far, too….

Ultimately the kids made about six bucks each from their lemonade and donut stand – and that only because their parents bought back excess stock at wholesale prices. But it was a good learning experience for them. Dana got rid of some stuff and made a few bucks too….
MoreI was up a bit before 6AM today. So was Dana, which is a bit unusual. But today was the big neighborhood garage sale, and whoever was in charge of it decreed that it run from 7AM to 2PM….
MoreI got up early so I could relax in the shower for a bit before the appearance of children. I keep telling myself that some day they’ll be able to take care of themselves in the mornings and my sleep schedule can become more sane. Not sure I really believe this, though….
