We are going to have a SPECTACULAR weather week for Presidents Break. Sunny and mid50s all the way through. Not to rub it in to everyone who is snowed in, but I am because you could be here right now soaking up the sun. My daffodils should be busting out all over by the weekend. President's Break here lasts a week; usually it gives people a chance to travel away from the gloom, but this year this is the only place not gloomy. Maybe global warming should simply renamed global weather change; it is not necessarily colder or warmer than usual, but weather is drastically different from the norm.
Why does it make me feel so productive to go through and unsubscribe to a bunch of email junk mail that I unknowingly signed up for? My inbox will now be only things that I actually want.... maybe.
Why is it so hard to throw away the kids Valentines? They abandoned them the day after their parties so why shouldn't I just toss them? Same with their art projects... sometimes it is so hard to toss their 'work' ; and sometimes I have no heart and toss everything in sight.
I have started to think about homeschooling. I think about how it would solve the whole problem of them doing so many extra pages after school and having to go back and reteach skills. Why should I just work with them after school when I could just teach them the stuff in the first place? Funny how things change. I would have never thought of homeschooling even a year ago. Not totally seriously thinking about it, but fantasizing about what it might be like.... and then scared of what it might be like.
love and hugs and will write a real entry sometime after break, B
