Progress Report part 2
I got a desk, nothing fancy just a simple one from Wal-mart. Now I just need a chair for it. I cleaned out my small dresser to give to Tommy cuz he needed it. I need a small bedside table now. Tomorrow I plan on hanging my curtains which will help so much with Saturday mornings. I've been hating the sun for waking me by 8am though usually Aaron and I lay in bed together for another hour or so just being lazy and snuggling. I'm working on book 4 for the month which is good. I even started reading my Sewing for Dummies book again. My room is definitely coming together. I need a bigger bookcase though, or another one, one of the two. Then after curtains are hung I can work on hanging my big picture frame and getting a frame for my Fairyland map which is held on the wall by pushpins right now. I have one big thing to do left in my room and that's to go through the boxes I have that I've simply thrown a bunch of stuff in over the last couple weeks. That shouldn't take long though.
Tommy's teacher is starting twice a week writing help after school to help them get ready for FCAT which I am happy about. Tommy will be attending all four sessions which should help. She emailed today and said he has been doing much better in class and showing involvement and excitement finally. I'm glad he's finally engaging. I've been trying to give him my attention right after school before I go to work, and help him with his homework for the bit of time I have. So far he's doing better at the homework and the lying. Like last week I called him from work and asked if his homework was done and he told me yes, and then called me back like 15 minutes later to tell me that he was sorry he had lied but that he was doing his homework right then and he wouldn't lie anymore. He did his homework, too which I was very proud of.
Haven't scrapbooked lately but got crafty with some fabric and shoeboxes and made awesome cool storage boxes cheap, going to finish the last two tonight. This way they're not just shoved in the closet and they look nice. They are great for pictures and random stuff.
So far doing pretty good on the plan for the year just have to keep up the motivation. Tomorrow is the gym. I actually enjoy going to the gym now. Going to try for 3-5 days a week even if 2 of those days are just a bit of cardio. Starting tomorrow my goal is to get up with Tommy and get ready for the gym so that after dropping him off I can go to the gym instead of going back to sleep.
Off to work with me now. Take care all.
