We ended up going to dinner last night as I had forgotten to clean the oven yesterday (convenient eh?). I’ve got is started this morning so we can cook dinner tonight without filling the house with burned meringue scented smoke. I think I should be able to have the house sufficiently aired out by the time everyone gets home from school/work.
Once again I was nagging at #1 to get out of bed this morning. He complained that he didn’t have time for breakfast, but had no reply when I pointed out to him that I had been trying to get him out of bed for a half an hour before he finally submitted. That would have been 30 minutes to eat and get ready on top of the 15 minutes he ended up having. Boy I hope this doesn’t continue all through high school! #2 is (usually) good about getting himself up and ready without my help; I wonder if #1 will ever get to that point?
I can remember getting myself up, ready and out the door in high school before my parents even woke up in the mornings. Is that unusual? Are more kids like #1?
It will seem strange tonight to not go to class. I’m looking forward to the next term I take classes again though. Hubby and I haven’t yet had a chance to talk to see if my going during the summer term is feasible yet or not. I dearly hope I can find a way to do it; I don’t like the thought of any delay. I have definitely reached the point where I just want to be done with it all! I think I would feel less this way had I been taking a heavier load all along. My musings have pointed out to me that just by taking 2 classes per term since I started back, I would only have 5 or 6 classes left until I graduate. Then, of course, I remember that most of those classes were pre-requisites for the ones I eventually took, so there is no way I could have taken a heavier load until recently.
That makes me feel slightly better. Not much… but slightly. As it is, I think I have about 17 classes left to take. I’ll find out for sure when I talk with the school again.
