Changes
I am always in a rush. A rush to get to the next thing, a rush to finish something undone. Whatever it is, I want and need it done yesterday. I'm trying to change that. It's not easy. I find each day that if my list is not completely crossed off, it's been something of a wasted day. I have a horrible sense of how long things will take. My brain still thinks I'm single and childless when in reality things take at least 2x as long as they used to. You think I would recognize this and adapt. Nope, ever the optimist, I always think I can do it and do it fast.
Starting my business has been in the forefront of my mind for over a year. It gnaws at me that I haven't gotten it up and running. It's about to take a back seat again. We found a daycare for Monkey for when he's not in preschool 2 mornings a week, but they have a waiting list and don't see him getting in until closer to summer (which up here in the North Pole could mean August). So, we decided that it would be smart to keep him home with me those days for now so we can save some money. Of course, if he's home with me, I can't really work, and if I can't work, then I can't afford daycare, but whatever. It's the right thing to do for him and us.
So, I've decided that I'm not going to do this half assed like I seem to do everything else these days. I've been researching things to do with him for my days so that he's not a vessel filled with just children's tv trivia. I really enjoy my son and if I have to beef up my role as teacher, I want to do it close to right.
