Wednesday: O:CtH - still in the office

Well, I'm still cleaning the office.  I was hoping to finish the closet and the little hallway by it.  But then the organizers I ordered showed up too late.  I was annoyed, but what can you do.  A bunch of things have been late lately, so there must be some shipping back-ups.

Instead I cleaned the area near Isaac's desk.  There's a shelf that we've just been putting stuff on and it looks bare now that I've cleaned it off.

Tuesday: made it

I wouldn't call today a bad day, but it also wasn't the most enjoyable of days.  Teaching was just ok.  The boys had a half day so right afterwards I went to pick them up from Cheryl's house.  Isaac proceeded to mope for the next hour because I wouldn't give him any screen time.  (I did finish my work in less time than I expected, so that was nice.  However, I expect I'll need to do some extra Friday or Monday as some new stuff rolls out.)  

After snack time Isaac proceeded to mope some more but at least got his chores done.  Then the busy evening - piano, karate, dinner, karate.  Both karate classes were good, but the juggling of classes and dinner is a bit tricky...and the classes are still on zoom, which makes it easier.  It's also an odd mix of really busy and waiting during this time that really threw me off.

Monday: rice cooker

I remembered to turn on the rice cooker today and really felt a sense of accomplishment.

Aha!  Take that rice cooker!

Sunday: vaccines and leaves

The boys got their first COVID vaccine shot today!  I was so excited.  I don't think the boys were, but whatever.

I took a picture afterwards.  Joshua wasn't in a great mood, so I just told him he had to stand there.  It worked and really, ended up being a rather funny picture.

During Bible Study the boys played in the leaves for a while and had a great time.

At the end of the day Isaac was still feeling pretty good.  Joshua was rather out of it.  I did give him some medicine because he wasn't acting right and I want him to sleep well.  It's hard to tell if it was the vaccine or if it was due to time change.

Saturday: the day

 "My name is Joshu-ow-ow-ow".  

I'm not sure what Joshua was doing, but my guess is that he was crazily moving around while saying this and then bumped into something.

We also played games online with Brian and Amy tonight, and that was very nice.  We haven't talked for a while, so the little bit of catch-up we did was fun.

Friday: how to draw a penguin

Joshua came home yesterday excited about a penguin he had drawn in class.  So he had to make instructions on how to make it.

Thursday: cat

 

(I took another look at the vaccine appointments.  Walgreens is mainly scheduling out for about nine days from now, so I'm glad it's gotten busier.  You could get one a bit earlier, but it'd involve taking a kid out of school and going about 30 min.)
