I’m joining the Day in a Life series from Simple Homeschool to give you a peek into our day!
Here’s what Wednesday, 2/1 looked like in our house:
Please note that this was a very productive day, both because of my early wakeup and because I was keeping track of what I was getting done (accountability is a great motivator!). There are plenty of days where I spend more time on Facebook than I should, fail to cross very much off my to-do list or spend the day on the go. For example, today I had one Skype meeting and two online webinars. I was feeling pretty unmotivated in general and didn’t get nearly as much done as I should have in between those!
I also don’t always get as much time with the littles as I would like, but I really only work four full days (Fridays we have our homeschool group, and weekends may include some work, but not for the bulk of the day), so we count the blessing of being able to be home all together and make the best of it!
4:22am: I get up for the day. Well, at least to start my day. The baby woke up looking for her special blankie, and even though Sean got up with her, I’m having trouble falling back asleep (probably thanks to the latte I had with dinner), so I decide to get up and get started. There’s nothing I hate more than lying in bed frustrated because I can’t fall asleep, and I figure I can lay back down for a “nap” in an hour or two if I get to work now.
There’s an email from TOMS that the new ballet flats are available (which I’ve been waiting for for months since I saw a sneak peek on Pinterest), so I decide to start there!
