Monday- Pick the kids up from school and take them to ballet (40 min away). I do homework with one and then switch while the other is in ballet. Who is at home making dinner? No one. Dinner will be McDonald's take out so that we can spend the 40 min home productively and I will not have to clean up the kitchen.
Tuesday- Josh usually picks Bear up from cheer leading so that will be my job. We will drive to Kumon Learning Center (25 min away) and try to do homework in the car while the kids yell back and forth to me from the back seat. What will dinner be? Pizza at Costco which is right next to Kumon. I will have to miss the one yoga class that I get to attend a week (poor me.)
Wednesday- Drive to ballet again straight from school. Bear will do homework in the car until she gets car sick. Bub and I will do homework while Bear is in ballet. I teach on Wednesday nights so the kids will need a babysitter. Dinner? TV dinner night possibly while watching a movie, how cliche.
Thursday- Deep breath, Thursday is my busiest day, the day I teach four classes. Bear will have no ride home from cheer leading as I will be teaching at the YMCA with Bub and Pants in tow. Luckily, her coach lives on base and we are friends. I will have to remember to give Bear the garage door opener. Dinner will be Little Caesar's Pizza that I pick up on the way home. Then it is off to soccer for Bub. After the game, a babysitter for the kids since I teach again on base. I will have to hire a babysitter who helps with homework because that will still need to be done.
Friday- Ahh! I think I will finally be able to cook dinner! Though, I may be too tired to make anything. Maybe I should get some extra TV dinners just in case.
I wonder how long I can keep this up? Come home soon my amazing partner, come home soon!

You can do it! Hey. Don't forget about those crockpots! They're handy for busy nights, too. But pizza and McDonald's is gotta be making you a fave with the kids!
ReplyDeleteThanks Katie! I will probably use the crock pot. I was just going to the extreme for comic effect! We do have the problem of distance to travel to and from our outings and we are rarely home at the dinner hour so it is a good thing McDonald's exists, ha ha!
