One of the prompts in the 30 Things thing that I am doing, is:
Describe a typical day in your current life…
Well, that wont be too difficult. Or too interesting either. I’m afraid my days are pretty standard and boring when I am not busy reviewing products or writing up reviews and doing the giveaways for them!
I wake up at 6:00am. Yes, I manage to somehow wake up that early (it’s haaaard *whine*)
Then I make coffee, yes a pot of coffee. Not for me, for Cid. 😛
Then I eat some breakfast, usually cereal, IF I eat. >.>
At 6:45 I run Cid and Aussie to work, come back home, take a few breaths and then go wake up the kids. After making sure Kat eats breakfast and is ready to go for the day, I get everyone else out the door by 7:35. Kat needs to be to school around 7:45 because classes start at 7:55.
After that I drive clear across town to the kids school to drop them all off by 8 so they can eat breakfast.
Because I cannot really let Sis and Lisi attempt to take care of Var because his ADHD and ODD make him insanely difficult to attempt to handle.
After that… I come home! Check emails, check the blog, sometimes write a post… and generally get some sleep because I’m pretty much always in pain and exhausted, plus I have the hardest time sleeping at night. So like I said… I’m exhausted.
Ohh, of course I also feed the cats during that time, and check the mice. Right now Xiki needs meds twice a day for his Pneumonia so I do that too.
I have to keep a constant handle on my phone just in case someone from the school calls and yet another kid is sick with something, because no one can just stay healthy this winter… grar!!
At 2:10 I leave to pick Cid and Aussie up from work, right after dropping them off I head to get Kat from school. I either go directly across town to get the youngest three or I take her home first.
On Wednesdays right after the youngests get out of school I have to head to the therapists with two of them. Clear back home with Lisi while their in their appointment and then back across town to get them all over again.
Generally I am out of the house from about 2:10pm – 3:55pm unless it is Wednesday and then I am not home until about 5:15/20ishpm…
Tuesday and Thursday Sis has PSR, Var has PSR at random during the week because his worker always changes days on us. Kat and Lisi are no longer in therapy and … I really most likely should be.
After that it’s making sure homework gets done, dinner gets done, baths and showers and teeth brushing… Bedtime is 8:30pm and generally by then I am exhausted from trying to manage all of Var’s… issues… and everything else. So I tend to go to bed not long after all the kids do.
Yeah, so… that was a bit boring. Sorry about that! I’ve gotta go help Kat take a shower because she’s still in her cast for another week. Woo. @_@; It’ll be nice to let her shower on her own again that’s for sure!
Hope everyone is doing well!
