Summer is here and the kids are already bored to death...It has not even been a full week. School may be out for them, but it is not out for mom. So finding a working balance will be the goal of the summer...I will probably get it figured out in time for them to go back to school and need to come up with a new plan.
60 more days until are all back in school. K starts school 2 days before the other three do. A wants to move to his dad's house all the way in Maine. The only way he could get any further is if I were to move to Alaska (and still be in the US). Well on second thought Hawaii might be a bit farther.
60 more days of, "I'm bored", "There is nothing to do", "Let's go somewhere", "I didn't write on the furniture", "He hit me", "She kicked me", and so on and so forth.
Of course they don't want to do things like, go outside and play (unless its a theme park of some sort), read a book, (video games are the new sit down activity), or play with each other, (a total abomination). They want mom to entertain them and if it is free...nope, not happening. Gone are the days I could put them in the kiddie pool in the front yard and have them be content. Finger painting no longer appeases them.
Mom of course is lame and boring because she still has to clean and do school work. Time to start planning activities for these little/not-so-little people to do.....otherwise this mommy will go insane before the 60 days are over....o and no camping, unless there is a cabin involved.
This mommy would love nothing more than to rent a house on the beach for a week....hmmm
Until the next scribble.....
