D13: I had a major urge to move the furniture around but didn't/couldn't because I already had a sore back.

Since I didn't post this yesterday I'm having a hard time remembering what we did yesterday. That's why I have to post daily. I seriously can't remember what we did? I remember I was up most of tne night with the baby so I didn't take the kids to gymnastics so I could take a nap instead.

I did get the kids up on time and told them to make beds and such, but I didn't apply my usual attentiveness. I just said, "get your beds made, room straightened, and then you can have breakfast." Well, it didn't happen. I probabaly should have just gone back to bed and gotten up around 10 more rested. We likely would have had a much more productive day.

CC#1 did her math and I gave her a stack of things to do before my afternoon nap but she didn't do them as well as I would've liked. She had to finish most of it, or correct it today. That put us "behind."

It's funny though that CC#2 wasn't at all motivated to clean or make bed in order to get breakfast, but she did ask to color her letter for the week the moment she got up. I think it's because she gets to use glitter and she really likes glitter.

So the whole house didn't get cleaned like I usually do on MOnday and I was really down, but in my defense I did have a sore back and tension headache. I have bad shoulders and if I don't use the wrap carrier to carry Leonora, my shoulders and bad swell and I'm in bad shape.
