Monday February 7, 2011

Today's Good Things:
Bible time
Decent eating choices
The scale was down from Saturday - hope it stays!
Good on water
Got in almost 6 hours of pain free sleep! (still woke struggling, but I'll take it!)
Afternoon mile in the beautiful sunshine, walking on the sparkling ice that lined the road. Breathtaking.
Coffee with friends

Today's Not So Good Things:
Tough day for mothering a 2-almost-3-year-old....sigh.
We all felt very Mondayish today

For some reason, school has become all consuming. I'm not sure what has happened. We used to be able to get done with everything by 1ish, but now we are going until 4pm somedays. I was hoping it was just because we were behind last week and this week would be better. Today was another long day. However, we didn't get rolling until 10am, so prayerfully we'll get an earlier start for tomorrow.

The late start kept me from my morning 15. That was a bummer. However, my darling son surprised me by making a giant ceasar salad complete with chicken for lunch. He knows how to win my heart. ::swoon::

My walk this afternoon was amazing. It was so nice outside, I felt like I could have stayed out all day. I wanted to, but I knew we needed to get back to work.

I've felt very preoccupied since last week. Dh and I have been discussing high school for our oldest. That has led to all sorts of research, thinking, praying and reading on my part.  It looks like we may be making some big changes for our education materials soon and it's been filling my thoughts on all ends. I guess it's that time of year. ;-)

I'm hoping I can get things together early enough to give us a decent start tomorrow. I'd really like to get outside and enjoy the weather if it's warm again. If not, I'm declaring it a Wii Challenge day and see who dares take me on!
