- Wake up earlier. This waking up early is for the birds and I for one am NOT a bird. My hubby has told me he wants to wake up earlier which means I need to wake up earlier to wake him up earlier.
- Make sure that workboxes are prepared the night before. I am doing a great job on this. I have also cut back on the amount of daily things Kira needs to get done. We are spending more time doing more craft activities to help us learn. I have learned that she learns more by doing than she does by workbooks or reading. She is so very much like me. As for the workbox station...well we really haven't been using it the way we were so that is something that is going to have to be revamped.
- Complete started lapbooks. Ah, lapbooks. Well, this mission I haven't even started! I have thought about it numerous times, but it just hasn't come to fruition.
- Develop a schedule. I think I have almost come to a conclusion on this one. The home school one is currently in the works and tomorrow I will begin my new cleaning schedule.
- Look into a tutor. I think the big thing here is we need a schedule and as we progress in our schedule things will be easier on all of us. But somehow we need to regain that balance in our lives.
- Look into what I need to finish my degree. I am going to call my advisor later this week (or next) and find out what is involved in the classes that I have left to take. Two specifically because I want to be prepared for fall. I have already talked to the Emergency Manager here in Fort Lauderdale and he said he can always get me an internship, it just depends on what they are wanting. I am kinda excited (but then again a little nervous.)
- Begin a workout program. So one of my best friends introduces to me his girlfriend, Miranda. Miranda and I just click. Don't know what it is. Maybe it is because we share the same birthday, or maybe it is just that we really like the guy that brought us together. I don't know and I don't care. She loves to go hiking, backpacking, camping, etc and those are things I love doing (and miss!) In fact, this summer we are having a camping/float trip called 'The Pirates of the Current' and this trip has really had me thinking. I am so out of shape that I am not sure what is going to save me. So Miss Miranda is going to be my motivator. I told her she can call me any name in the book. Call and check up on me with my husband. Whatever she needs, but I need an exercise buddy. I need to kick myself in high gear because I need to fit into a swimsuit by June 1. My ultimate goal would be to drop 3 pant sizes, but I am not sure that is even possible. So Monday, Miranda is going to ask me daily if I have exercised and I have to be truthful. I am going to start keeping a log as to my exercising (what I did for how long, etc, etc, etc.) Wii Fitness here I come. Instead of 4 months, I have only 3 months. Why is it I hear R. Lee Ermey in the background?
Well now that I just realized that today is Monday, I had better get exercising!
