Do you ever wonder why it is when situations in life change and you think you'll have more time to play, you never get around to it???? I have had a full seven days off and still have yet to conquer a craft project. I do believe it may have something to do with cramming so much into the schedule that I cut myself short.
Monday, after dropping the kids at school, I headed into college to pay for class and get my book. That took a full two hours (including drive time). Tuesday I had to go to the courthouse to get a copy of our marriage liscense, to prove eligibility for health insurance, naturally I had spent at least 3 hours searching for it at home. Like how often do you need that anyway? Probably way back when I changed over my social security card, nearly 8 years ago. We also decided that we would put the kids into some activities and as luck would have it dance classes start Monday, and gymnastics started this week. Leave it to me to check on it at the last possible moment. Titus will be in dance, with his autism we felt it would be good for coordination and spacial awareness. Besides that he loves music. We believe the best therapy is to get him around other kids doing something he'll enjoy. Kaylee on the other hand, has been hankerin' for gymnastics. She has an older cousin that is very into it and Kaylee idolizes Casey. She started this past Thurs. Daddy was also an all around in gymnastics as a younger man so he has an interest in her being in gymnastics as well.
My theory is that one outside activity is enough( we're not going to count the piano lessons I give them) I know people that run their kids everywhere and that just seems insane to me. If you have the energy and money to do it that's terrific, but not me...Plus we will take the summers off.
I have an idea for a little something that will be totally experimental-hopefully snippets of that tomorrow!!!!
