Obstacles
Fri Jan 10 2003

About 2 minutes before I left the house to go to my class, I got a call from the school. It seems #3 had behavior that was less than optimal, and he was being invited to go home for the day. So, I picked him up instead of going to class, and now I'm home playing slave driver to him as he does chores and homework.

When I'm done playing slave driver, I will go through my books and the assignments for today. I made the mistake of trying to do this while #3 was working on his homework also, boy was that a mistake. #3 talks. He does not know that he is talking, but he talks. He does not stop. Ever. I am the kind of person that needs quiet to concentrate and get any work done. I left the table 30 minutes ago and #3 is still talking.

Where is the duct tape when you need it?

Well, at least my living room is clean, his room is picked up, the kennel has been scooped and he is well started into his homework now. I suspect I will wait until the kids are in bed tonight before I attempt to do any homework again. Until then I will continue the ongoing battle against the laundry monster, and listen to #3 ramble. For some variation and excitement I might even do dishes! Yippie!
