school morning blues

school morning blues
  • Lila, I had to wake you up this morning, and things didn't go smoothly. It was blue day at school and you weren’t pleased with the blue options in your wardrobe. You reiterated again that you are a night owl and nocturnal and you shouldn’t be woken up in the mornings. I tend to agree. Too bad your school doesn’t start around noon.

  • I’m still obsessed with the UnF*ck Your Brain podcast. I listened to three episodes this morning. I’m trying to pace myself, but I don’t think I’ll be able to slow down. I love the concept she talks about.

  • Katie, because you got lost on your run last week, you had to redo it because your teacher was timing it to use as a baseline. You did it at lunch today at got 11 minutes which is great! The fastest time on record of all time is 7 minutes and 40 something seconds. The slowest time in your class was over 20 minutes. You’re so athletic. It impresses me to no end because I don’t have an athletic bone in my body.

  • Today was the very first day in September we didn’t have anything on the calendar in the evening. Our family calendar is insane. And I can’t see it changing anytime soon. I actually try really hard to keep things calm. I say no to a lot of things. You guys aren’t signed up for a ton of classes or activities. You don’t go to every birthday party you’re invited to, but still, there’s a lot of stuff going on.
