And I feel helpless.
The littlest things have had me upset & crying all morning. I know that, in about 1.5 months, I'll suddenly feel fantastic and be excited. But it's not time for that, yet.
Kids are taking out some of the leftover pizza (bacon, pepperoni, & mushroom) from dinner last night. Curious George is on. Hopefully the kids will agree to nap for a bit (or at least play quietly, seperately, for a while).
Allie doesn't have a good concept of time yet so this isn't a big deal to her. I'm sure there will be some rough days but, in the end, it'll seem like a week to her. I'm going to start homeschooling her a little on August 1st (a Monday, a new month, and just generally a good day to start) so that's going to take up 3hrs of every day.
Jason, on the other hand, picked up on the general mood of the house last night & this morning and is acting out more than usual. He's climbing on the coffee table to open the disc drive on the computer, getting up into his booster seat at the table and trying to get the fly strip on the lamp, and just generally being a grumble.
I don't feel like doing anything "extra" today. I don't want to go outside. I don't want to do chores. I don't want to deal with people. I just want to lay around all day with the kids & watch tv. Or play on Jason's new road map rug. Anything that doesn't involve thinking.
Fair winds and following seas.
