Struggling

These days I feel like I’m messing up all the things.

I can’t seem to keep up with it all.

I planned a field trip—set the time aside in the school schedules, got the kids ready to go, put the destination into my GPS and (thankfully) was alerted they were closed that day.  The next day, we tried again.  Made it there.  Walk up to buy tickets and find they are sold out.  Sat in the car and purchased online tickets to try a third time.  I’ll have to let you know if we actually make it through!

Then Ellie said she wanted to visit a pumpkin patch.  So on Halloween, I cut the school lists and planned to spend the afternoon at a local patch—they are closed on Mondays, so Sunday was their last day of the season.  😔

I’m behind on some of my grading, failing to hit the literature discussions on some our Mondays, and need to clean out my closet.  Ack!

We called off the second night of our AHG campout because we thought it was going to rain super hard, but it didn’t.

Someone stole our trail camera that keeps an eye on the new house.

Justin had to work late on Halloween.

And I found someone left laundry in the washer all weekend long, as I went to run my Monday washing.

Some days are like that, even in Australia.
