Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Sometimes I do not understand your life, brenda. Scheduled PTO that you are not taking is incomprehensible to me.
We probably will close the office early today. After work I need to remember to go to the drugstore and also buy some coffee somewhere (probably not at the drugstore, I am too much of a coffee snob for that, although I am also lazy, so we'll see), I think that's all? I hope so.

I'm the scheduler for the family which is a job I resent most of the time. I keep three paper calendars and I'm trying to remember putting stuff in my phone.
That being said, today Grace's nurse isn't coming into work (death in her family and a funeral), the cable guy is coming to install cable, she has a brace fitting at 1:00 and I promised Noah we'd go bowling at 4. Complicated!

Our wings are not tired.
Scheduling with young children is a whole other level of complex. I was so grateful when they could drive, yes another level of horror, but freedom!

I would be a horrible wife and mother and or a really resentful and angry one, because I hate scheduling, I hate keeping track of other people, and I would really hate having to make a child do their homework. And probably everything would fall apart around me.

Even with calendars, I get lost. I've been expecting Patriot's Day for about three weeks now.

The homework thing is a world of suck. I have heard that some kids are self motivated, but I think it is a lie.

I know that one. Except I apparently suck at holding my tongue. I guess I have to get it out although I know it won't change anything.
Yeah - I said stuff a while back, making it abundantly clear how I felt. Since then, I've tried to detatch. Which also sucks mightily.
Meanwhile, I'm searching for my motivation. If anyone finds it, please send it back to CO.

I did my homework in school, in other classes mostly. My mother said she thought it was weird that I rarely did homework at home, but since I had an A average and wasn't in trouble at school, she figured she just didn't want to argue with me!

I was going to go to work before court today, but I just hit a wall. So instead I'm going to have a slightly more leisurely morning in which I can shower and dress and eat and put on my face, and not race out of the house with wet hair and no breakfast.
Good luck to your parents today, Jesse.
